35. I'm glad that people ignored it when someone declared "Planned Parenthood was part of the Establishment"

and so while some want the Democrats to focus solely on "economic issues" and "unions".... I find it disturbing and distressing (and outright offensive) that there are some out there who who fail to recognize that abortion bans lead to poverty, an expanded police state, and an overrun health care system. But when reproductive issues are ignored, or dismissed, or put on the back-burner it fails to recognize the simple fact that this, too, becomes an economic issue. I have not seen the first candidate or party leader focus "solely" on women's reproductive rights. So, it seems rather unnecessary for anyone to engage in the BS scare-tactics of pretending that their concerns are valid and that women's issues are "losing" issues.
