CAL THOMAS COMMENTARY JUNE 17, 2024
LAST WEEK THE SUPREME COURT VOTED UNANMOUSLY NOT TO BLOCK THE DISTRIBUTION OF A POPULAR ABORTION PILL. THEIR REASON WAS THE PLAINTIFFS DIDN’T HAVE WHAT IS CALLED “STANDING.”
THE LATEST GALLUP POLL ON THE ISSUE FOUND A RECORD-HIGH 32 PERCENT OF AMERICAN VOTERS SAYING THEY WOULD ONLY VOTE FOR A CANDIDATE FOR MAJOR OFFICE WHO SHARES THEIR VIEWS ON ABORTION. DEMOCRATS ARE CAMPAIGNING AS IF THIS IS THE ONLY ISSUE, RATHER THAN THEIR POOR RECORD ON THE ECONOMY AND INFLATION.
THERE ARE MANY REASONS THE NUMBER OF PRO-ABORTION SUPPORTERS IS SO HIGH. ONE IS THAT PRO-LIFERS AND ESPECIALLY REPUBLICAN POLITICIANS, HAVE NOT MADE THEIR CASE THAT THE LEFT IS FOR ABORTION UP TO THE MOMENT OF DELIVERY AND IN SOME CASES THEY WOULD ALLOW THE BABY TO DIE AFTER IT IS BORN SHOULD THE WOMAN CHANGE HER MIND.
THE OTHER REASON IS THE INCREASING SECULARIZATION OF THE COUNTRY. FEWER PEOPLE FEAR GOD OR UNDERSTAND THAT KILLING A BABY IS LINKED TO SATAN’S ATTACK ON THE UNITY OF THE TRINITY.
AS IN OTHER ELECTIONS, IT IS POSSIBLE TO WIN ON THIS ISSUE IF THE EXTREMISM OF THE PRO-ABORTION CROWD IS MADE THE ISSUE. I’M CAL THOMAS.
