Yeah, Pelosi and McConnell embody everything about a stereotypically corrupt career politician.
They just aren't as good as tweeting or saying headline-grabbing statements as POTUS.
Will be interesting to see if/how the dynamic changes when Sleepy Joe takes over. Will there be more focus on Pelosi/McConnell or will they do their normal gymnastics of avoiding everyone's ire?

When it comes to abortion, I don't think the government has any right to say what anyone does with their own body.. Try walking down the street naked in front of the cops, or drop some acid in front of the cops and see if they agree with you  Try enjoying some Artificial trans fats, or avoiding a ticket for not wearing your seat belt. It's my body,, if I wanna walk down the street naked, that's my business... There is a price to pay for your actions. You wanna eat fat, do it, but don't expect to live long Are you really comparing abortion to seat belts.. You won't eat a bunch of trans fats since the FDA has banned them. As for comparing seat belts to abortion I am just using your own words. Nobody can tell you what to do with your body.
I AM ALWAYS RIGHT... except when I am wrong.

When it comes to abortion, I don't think the government has any right to say what anyone does with their own body.. I don't want to derail this thread, so this is all I will say on the topic. Where the difference lies on the abortion issue is the threshold of when it stops being "their own body" and starts being "someone else's body." There have been arguments both ways. Overturning Roe v. Wade wouldn't illegalize abortion, like many say, it would just nullify the ruling that abortion is constitutionally protected under one's right to privacy. The removal of the constitutional protection would then leave the inference that the constitution says nothing about abortion, so it would fall to the states. Just bringing that up. Sorry if I put dust into the air. I won't go down any rabbit holes on this thread at least. Any way you cut it, I don't feel it's my job to tell someone what to do with their own body....

Not to get in to the fray here, but there is a 2nd body involved in this whole discussion.
