NeverTrump Republicans are the most pathetic people in politics. They’re remarkable hypocrites even in a field where gross hypocrisy is unremarkable.
DEAL OF THE DAY: Tactical Portable LED Flashlight. #CommissionEarned
V-E DAY: GERMANS SURRENDER, AMERICAN CELEBRATE, HARRY TRUMAN TURNS 61, and CANADIANS RIOT … ALL ON THE SAME DAY: On this day in 1945, the definitive German Instrument of Surrender was signed in Berlin. Americans celebrated. It also happened to be President Harry Truman’s birthday. And Canadian sailors … uh …. rioted and looted in Halifax, mobbing liquor stores and breaking windows in Halifax. Ha! Those darn Canadians. Who are they trying to kid when they look down their noses at Americans?

And if you don’t think there are more Kermit Gosnells out there, I have a bridge to sell you. Good price!
In addition, every liberal super-worried about poor people affording travel to other states for abortion should contribute to a charity for the purpose.
They’ll find there are fewer takers than they think.
And yes, there are still “illegal networks” of abortion in even super-liberal states. Because abortion is a bizarre and weird subject, like everything having to do with reproduction.
I have two things to say: A society that can’t define “woman” has no business aborting anything. Because if you’re an idiot, you should follow the course of least harm done.
Also, I just want the left to acknowledge that the life they’re taking is human. Period.
Oh, okay — a third thing — if you’re for no-limits abortion, at least advocate to legalize murder. You’ll at least be consistent.
Also, I happen to have a little list.
