GOP to adopt official abortion party platform without exception for rape and incest

[Julius Skrrvin]

First on CNN: GOP prepares tough anti-abortion platform – CNN Political Ticker - CNN.com Blogs

The Republican Party is once again set to enshrine into its official platform support for "a human life amendment" to the Constitution that would outlaw abortion without making explicit exemptions for rape or incest, according to draft language of the platform obtained exclusively by CNN late Monday.

Republicans have also inserted a "salute" to states pushing "informed consent" laws - an apparent reference to ultrasound bills that have moved through some state legislatures - "mandatory waiting periods prior to an abortion, and health-protective clinic regulation."

IDK man, I'm still shook off that swagtorum link that someone posted today. I really don't know how people can ride with the GOP. I try to remain unbiased,

But this logic is

without making explicit exemptions for rape or incest,

I don't get it. The GOP is all about cutting social programs and welfare, yet they want a bunch of unwanted kids here. Who is sposed to foot the bill for all these extra unwanted kids?

The republican party is lost. in recent years they have been moving further and further to the right, which fires up their base and helps them win elections short term, but in the long run they are loosing support from most independents and some less conservative republicans. This makes them have to continue to pander to the crazy fringe in order to stay relevant. So they have to align themselves with the crazies that don't care about logic or facts, they only care about hate, and bigotry.
