Re: Mike Huckabee will use military to stop domestic abortions

[elaminator]

is that he will use military force to stop women from getting abortions.

Are you fucking serious?!

I read this and thought, "Well that HAS to be made up."

Then I googled...

If only it wasn't true. If only.

(I guess I should know better by now, because the candidates this year are just...unbelievable. In the worst way possible. This isn't the first time Huckabee has said something batshit either, but still, that's...wow.)

It's legitimately one of the most insane things I've ever heard

Like, it's not misinterpreted or anything. He actually said that he would use the military to stop abortions regardless of what the Supreme Court said. It's in basic contravention of every aspect of the American constitution and American democracy.

Re: Mike Huckabee will use military to stop domestic abortions

What was REALLY telling was that when he was told that doing so would be a major breach of the Supreme Court, he started citing cases of other presidents violating Supreme Court rulings. It was like, "well the OTHER kids were doing it, too! so there!"

Though using military force against American citizens on American soil certainly doesn't have the precedent that Huckabee thinks it does.

That's their argument for everything: yeah but everybody else is doing it so why do I have to apologize/be reasonàble/stop taking crazy pills!?!?!?!??

...I can't argue with that.

The only good thing about these kind of comments is that the sheer stupidity will stop (most) people from voting for them, so that's a plus.

Honestly, I don't think so. Republicans will vote Republican, just as Democrats will vote Democrat. You just sway those people who veer around moderate.

And frankly, I don't think the vast majority of pro-life people would be concerned about Huckabee's remarks. It's a very black or white issue to them. On the pro-choice side you get some people who will try to qualify when they think abortion is acceptable (rape, incest, mother's life in danger) and when it isn't (as a birth control) and you have a range of opinions. Pro-life people, the vast, vast majority, will view any abortion as the murder of a baby, and therefore any means necessary is perfectly ethical to protect that baby. I don't really see this turning off anyone who was already pro-choice.

Re: Mike Huckabee will use military to stop domestic abortions

[elaminator]

I certainly think you have a point (in that most pro-life people think abortion is unacceptable in basically any circumstance and almost anything that stops it is okay), but I'm also not sure I believe that not one of them would see that comment and go, "Okay, that's a bit drastic."

Granted, maybe not many...but I feel like it would at least make some people stop and think.

(Then again, I could be wrong. But I'd like to not be wrong about this, lol.)
