“If we continually restrict the freedom of marriage as a legitimate social option, when we do this to people who are a ripe, fertile age and may have a pregnancy and a baby involved, are we not in fact making abortion a much more desirable alternative, when marriage might be the right solution for some freedom-loving couple?” Edwards said.

    bending over backwards to find the peanuts in this pile of shit.

    I don’t think they did that.

    And as we said, they’re still in the wrong. And I’m sure they’re misogynistic… they’re republican. But that also doesn’t mean the worst interpretation of what they say is always most accurate.

      But you’re right, I don’t think that’s what they did in this case.
