2016 Postmortem
In reply to the discussion: Hillary now addressing Planned Parenthood. I hope all are hearing this. [View all]PeaceNikki
(27,985 posts)13. To quote a great DUer on this:
"Intelligent women who have heard her on the abortion issue know that she is accurately reflecting the state of the law for the last 40 years in this nation.... like it or not the state has the right to restrict abortion past the point of viability. It's settled law and that's not going to change.
Women who know reproductive law like me understand exactly what Hillary is saying. That you refuse to accept my expertise and the expertise of organizations like Planned Parenthood doesn't win any points for your argument.
In your attempt to explain reproductive law you only show your shallow understanding of it." ~msanthrope

OP
She been nothing short of a champion on reproductive freedom. You're using your silly interpretation

If you think she's not going to fight hard enough, you don't know anything about HRC....

Can you point me to a nation that allows an unfettered right to abortion up to the moment of birth?

Her position is clearly spelled out in her platform with great clarity and little ambiguity.

She was talking about if the GOP would put a bill in front of her with exceptions

It's more likely you heard what you wished to hear because of your dislike for her

Sanders stance is no restrictions, and that would have hit him in the ass. Not too well thought out.

I voted for Sanders and I think he would have won the general if he'd won the primary

I like Sanders but am happy with Hillary. I think she stands in starker contrast to Trump...
