    Al Smith Dinner, Trump wins the election

    Kids with severe disabilities are expensive, especially if you are not poor enough to qualify for assistance but aren’t wealthy enough to comfortably pay for it. And unfortunately sometimes insurance is insufficient. And at the end of the day, what I think about it is irrelevant. I’m not the one in their shoes nor am I responsible for their choices. That’s on them.

    Yes, that was part of it, but are you denying that another part of the argument was about Gutter laughing at the Dad’s tattoo? Because I definitely remember that.

    No, Gutter made fun of the guy’s tattoo.

    This is not a rabbit hole I’m willing to set aside a significant chunk of time to go down, considering this issue is not exactly common, and it looks like data on this is scarce. The closest I could find that didn’t seem particularly partisan was this: https://www.kff.org/womens-health-policy/issue-brief/abortions-later-in-pregnancy-in-a-post-dobbs-era/ No data breakdown on the % of women who terminate for health/deformity reasons vs delay because of barriers in accessing care.

    I assume most of them are a severe deformity in which the fetus will not survive or would involve a monetary burden.

    Stop it. Most late term abortions happen because of a medical necessity-either the health of the mother or a severe deformity is involved. Sure there may be a few that happen unscrupulously, but that is not the norm.

    I don’t necessarily disagree. I’ve already stated that both sides are playing politics with the definitions surrounding this issue. Dems are making a big deal out of the D&C side and Reps are with late term abortions. Common sense is no where to be found.

    All 1st term surgical abortions are considered a D&C but not all D&C’s are abortions. It would come down to how the law is written and how it is interpreted and whether or not they have exemptions written into them for this. Both sides are playing fast and loose with the language and I can see how this could be a legal nightmare for the doctors involved.

    Nope. The polls right now are garbage-don’t trust them.
  10. Did hell just freeze over? I thought I didn’t rate?
  11. Is this true or just an internet rumor? I feel like this would explain a lot.
  12. It’s not a dead heat, Kamala is going to win. I’ll bet to delete my account and leave forever if I’m wrong.

    I sincerely hope this is true. Good job, Max!
  16. For the record, I think it’s positively mean that they are getting your hopes up only to have the rug pulled out from under you.
