Why do you keep calling us names like progressive wokerr? Why, if you oppose Trump, do you like to use his language? I am not a fan of either Clinton for a mix of reasons. You have failed to name a single accomplishment by Trump that benefitted anyone other than the wealthy amd misogynists, other than, maybe, pushing the development of a Covid vaccine and governments around the world were also doing that.

But you didn't do that, did you? You basically complimented Hilary so you could insult her husband. All you did for Biden was post an article about seven times he appeared racist. Nancy Pelosi, you haven't even tried. (Plus the article regarding Biden comes from an unreliable right-wingnut publication. Surely as an academic, you could have found more reliable sources than 'For America.'
Mmm hmm. Opposed to Trump. Suuuuuuuure you are. Except for your occasional declarations that you are against him, I don't recall you saying anything remotely critical of Trump.
FBI Director James Comey's last second letter exposing Hillary probably cost her the election. The letter exposed what Trump had learned about her, justifying his "Crooked Hillary label. To grasp Comey's impact read this progressive Huffington Post article:
Did James Comey Cost Clinton The Election? We Asked The Late-Deciding Voters.
The FBI director didn't help, they say. But it's too simple to put all the blame on him.

12 reasons Hillary’s a crook – The Horn News
It may be the most ironic campaign commercial ever aired. A new Hillary Clinton ad features some of her rival Donald Trump’s most embarrassing verbal gaffes. It’s followed by a message that our children are watching, and that our president should be a role model. But while Clinton tries to paint...

The first article did not detail any reasons for the label. The second article was much more helpful. Thank you. More reasons to wish she had lost to Bernie. She and Trump seemed evenly matched in terms of dishonesty.
Ah, at last, an effort at balance in sharp contrast to the expected desperate need to use ad hominems in the absence of any hope of rational responses to conservative critiques. Yes, I oppose Bernie's brand of socialism, but I know of no conservative who does not respect his integrity. Well, as an Anybody-But-Trump Republican myself, my work on this thread is done.
btw. the other day I posted a biblical defense of a pro-choice position from Scripture on an Evangelical website, even though I'm pro-life. Needless to say, some of them were angry, but wouldn't budge from their position that the Bible contains God's COMPLETE revelation for every important issue. My point was that biblical revelation is incomplete, and so, a pro-life stance needs the first-century abortion prohibition in Didache 4:2 to make its case more effectively. The Wesleyan Quadrilateral got it right: spirtual truth must be based on Scripture, Tradition, Reason, and Experience.

Unfortunately most pro life supporters do not support strategies that significantly reduce abortions and consider the lives of those who have been born just as valuable as the lives of fetuses. Effective sex ed, empowering women, resisting misogyny, generous support for families. Being cheap by using the force of law with no significant personal sacrifice rather than the persuasion of love powered by personal sacrifice is a violation of the final command given by Jesus at the last supper.
In my experience, most pro-lifers are very concerned with alternatives like those you mention that make unwanted pregnancies less onerous to the young mother. Indeed, in our town evangelical churches support a large home for young unwed mothers and funding for this and related educational resources, are regularly promoted in these churches. It's neither helpful nor fair to create a caricature of the insensitive pro-lifer. Progressives too often unctuously act as if they have cornered the market on social sensitivity.
Ommission is a problem in birth control when expecting a growth in the market place. Then there is the Santos sense of all politicians lie to get office ... and yet they tell us that they are honest ... and folk with pious (fixed) belief systems are classed as orthodox and cannot change ... defines dense and thick clouds as they settle from the deep space theory ... do to the rites of fall .. fallacy of thought experiments?
From there a step right into the OCD ... happening w/o process ... is virtue and truth a diffussive item of non sense ... UN sentient? There it goes ... like Gone With the Wind and terre! Expect considerable misinformation ... from all sides as corruption is penetrating ... it is with us --- POGO!
News today said a criminal psychologist was testing criminology in Utah. As after thought a neuroscientist once told me that affiliation with the insane limits any time of sanity. The mad hatter made a similar statement ... and thus the great maker has a recall button ...
There appear to be stops coming up for physical being ... only the essence goes on as EI (emotional intelligence balance). Few really physical people believe in essence as a spirit ... even at Christmas when encountering old folk in bloody attire ... maybe the hearth effect ...

How about support for families in general? How long can an unwed mother live in that home?
In the past homes for unwed mothers were not much more than gestation centres, places to house and feed pregnant girls and women until they give birth and their babies are ready to be adopted. Some nasty one like the infamous laundry houses in Europe also used the girls and women as slave labour.
To me, for an institution to call itself a home for unwed mothers, it would provide a place for these girls and women a place to live until they are ready to move out on their own with their children, able to make their own living. Most progressives tend to be cheap with actual support. Great on talk. Trudeau is a poster child for these progressives.

Does anyone remember the USFL? The springtime football league from the early to mid 1980's? Anyone have any guess as to why it won't be celebrating its 40th anniversary in 2023?
This is just one more greasespot of failure on the legacy.

Not as rare as rational critiques by Conservatives of progressive policies and actions. For example, you oppose Bernie's brand of socialism, which is a lot closer to the teachings and actions of Jesus than any Conservative policies, but no rational justification of that opposition. Most of your critiques use ad hominems like woke and you did not respond to my post about the history of homes for unwed mothers. I was hoping in the spirit of your comments that the home for unwed mothers that you support might be more than a gestation centre.
Prick is a potentially penetrating disadvantage ... thus it should be changed to King Richard so as to hide the thing ... so as not to burst the bubble of those expecting to join with great powers ... and thes like Rome could collapse in fallacy!
More unknowns ... all that stuff in the pits as pithy! The don quis joust on as Satyrs in the Magi Forest ... that casting great shades ...

Back to Trump's legacy. The craziness this week in the House of Representatives is part of his legacy. Those 20 fringe Republicans are Trump's gift to the GOP and to the Democrats.
