In the 1970's an all adult supreme court restricted babies' right to life...

You think that calling fetuses babies helps your side, but it really hurts your side.  Rational, reasonable people who might be swayed by your other arguments are immediately turned off my that emotion-whoring terminology.

Setting aside the general stupidity of the author, this post is ridiculous for other reasons. Please give reasons why calling the unborn "babies" turns people off. I have literally never heard this argument. Also, I'm so glad your party never engaged in "emotion-whoring." Never! You know, setting aside the "Republicans despise the poor, women, ethnic minorities, gays, disabled, etc." talking points. That aside, you never engage in it.
Yeah, how dare we criticize Republicans for actually hating the poor, women, ethnic minorities, gays, the disabled, etc.  Republicans should be completely free of criticism on their war against everything not white, straight, male, and of sound body.

Whether such contempt for these groups is expressed implicitly or explicitly is up for debate.  But the contempt and mean-spiritedness is glaringly obvious.  Especially because the Republicans wail and gnash their teeth when accused of what they are guilty of.  "BUT WE SHOULD BE FREE OF CRITICISM.  OUR VIEWS ARE OUR TRADITIONS... WE'RE NOT BIGOTS!  WE'RE JUST BULLIES WHO CAN DISH IT OUT BUT CAN'T TAKE IT!"

Right and it's definitely the GOP that's "emotion-whoring." Roll Eyes

I like this logic: "We're able to criticize your side because you guys really do hate x, y and z but don't you dare say we hate babies! Don't even say babies. That's emotion-whoring!" Tell me again: who can dish it out but can't take it?
Actually I couldn't care less whether you use the term "babies" or "innocent very small humans"... that doesn't excuse the nastiness and contemptuous attitudes of the right on people who don't look and act like them.
