The Left’s Flexible Attitude Toward ‘Rights’

The crazy left is always going to support policies that don’t work and they will rationalize those policies with bogus facts and logic. Abortion is a prime example. The sophistry behind abortion is ” a woman’s right to choose”, and that it is a fundamental Constitutional right, and ignoring of the possibility that life begins at conception. The truth is: Getting pregnant is a choice, getting an abortion is changing that choice. And if life doesn’t begin at conception, it never begins. And the only part of the Constitution that pertains to abortion per se is that part of the preamble which goes “to secure the blessings of liberty to ourselves and our posterity”.
The crazy left is also wrong about energy policy. It wants windmills and solar panels that produce energy for $1 to $10 per kilowatt hour and it opposes nuclear and coal that produce energy for $.02 to $.06 per kilowatt hour.
The crazy left is crazy.
