“I love the Five and respect the discussions, even those I disagree with. I would say my least favorite shows are those where Jessica presents the liberal argument. Surely some of her responses and delivery is for showmanship, but Harold Ford presents the liberal view point with respect, dignity, candor and professional, thoughtful response. I don’t think he would note that a civilized conversation on dismembering and vacuuming babies from their moms wombs can be had, as Jessica notes Republicans should aspire to. I’m also saddened by the Jewish faith’s nuanced stance on abortion. Saying there is civility (Jessica’s premise) to be had in discussing abortion considering ALL abortion entails, or using abortion as a family planning method is as barbaric as shaping the pro-Palestine position beginning with “from the River to the Sea.” I have been, am now and always will be pro-Israel. They are our ancestors and Gods chosen - to show us how to learn from their doing things right, and how to recover from their doing things wrong. That said, I believe Jessica’s position (not unique) and the nuance of her faiths position on abortion is one of those “don’t do that” lessons God gave us through the Chosen. Only judgement day will tell. Until then, I will and do support the baby and the mom together, understanding I stand with way fewer of the worlds population that I pray for.”
