Nathan, in today’s political landscape “principled conservative” is an oxymoron. Voters are not SO stupid as to believe the “Change-up artists on our current ballots…..” when they have been trumpeting (no pun) their hateful anti-choice rhetoric for years!

It's quite possible to hold very personal views on that particular issue and still work with others of polar opposite opinions and find places to compromise and work together. Do you remember Bill Clinton's iconic quote? "Abortion should be safe, legal and rare". Who would argue that abortion is a preferable form of birth control? How many women would equate a trip to an abortion clinic with a visit to the dentist? My personal views are not the issue here. I don't agree with Liz Cheney on the majority of things she has voted on, but she has contributed more to the integrity of the House of Representatives than many less principled peers.
Nathan, Bill Clinton said a lot of things - this was not his most insightful. Please listen to the women. American men do not have the Supreme Court and Congress standing between them and their health provider. And from where do those structures receive their power ? From us ! For women, only since 1919 but we are not slow learners and we are not going back to being chattel.
"oxymoron". Yes! To oppose climate change mitigation measures is the crime of the century. Yet just about every conservative is on board with that attitude. "Principled" indeed.

I am afraid the right to decide is up to no one but the individual woman, her physician and her family, or not.
I agree. But Bill’s point is a good one.
