Does nature favor the stupid? Not according to Charles Darwin. Not according to any other source I know of either...unless you're a liberal.
You know how liberals like to play the "race card," right? Did you know they sometimes play the "dumb card"? It works a little different, but it's intended to do the same thing: play upon fears and obscure the real issue.
The liberals are playing dumb again, just as they did with the marriage protection amendment in 2006 when they claimed, "Duh, I don't know what 'quasi' means. Oh, and while I'm at it, duh, I don't know how to find a dictionary and look it up.
Like Barack Obama who claims something as simple and obvious as human life is "above his pay grade," pro-abortion liberals from the South Dakota Campaign for UnHealthy Families have a new ad up their sleeve to try and fool the voters of South Dakota into believing the exceptions in Initiated Measure 11 are so complicated that no average human being can figure them out.
Go read them for yourself here; see if they're as complicated as the pro-abortionists claim.
In this ad, the pro-abortion folks pull an extremely rare medical condition out of the hat as if it were realistically something that many pregnant women would face--and this condition does not always necessitate the death of one twin as they imply.
Notice, too, how they talk out of both sides of their mouth in this ad. One moment, they're complaining that "trying to cover every medical circumstance" results in a complicated measure, and the next moment they're complaining that one rare instance might have been left out. Logical consistency is optional; whatever fear-mongering tool will convince the audience is acceptable.
The UnHealthy Families gang wants you to believe IM 11 is a real mind-bender. It's only a mind-bender if you want to try to find a way around these exceptions without really having a situation covered by these exceptions. Yes, finding a way to get an abortion because "I don't want it" under these exceptions will be pretty confusing and hard to figure out.
The exceptions require proof that grounds exist for an abortion under those exceptions, plain and simple. They were designed not to be abused. Of course, the pro-abortionists would rather have an "exception" that didn't require any proof of a rape or a health threat...so they could push any abortion they wanted through a loophole the size of Mount Rushmore. But that isn't really what it's about, is it?
In 2006, pro-abortionists lied to the voters of South Dakota and said Referred Law 6 was "too extreme," and "if only it had exceptions" then reasonable people could support it.
Now that we have Initiated Measure 11 with those exceptions they whined for in 2006...oh, now they aren't broad enough. They're too restrictive. They're too complicated. They're too hard to figure out.
In reality, they prevent the only thing pro-abortionists will settle for: full access to abortion on demand for any reason whatsoever, including the one chosen by 84.6% of South Dakota women seeking an abortion: "The mother did not desire to have the child."
Also, the 50,000+ South Dakotans who signed the petition to put this measure on the November ballot obviously didn't have any trouble figuring it out, either.
Folks, they're not as dumb as they let on. And neither are you. This "I'm too dumb" act is just a thin ruse to make a very clear issue seem far more complicated than it is...in order to scare you into voting against the most reasonable, common-sense abortion measure ever to come out.
No, the pro-abortionists aren't dumb at all. They're smart enough to realize that, as the polls indicated in 2006, more than 70% of South Dakotans will vote for a measure with these exceptions. And they're smart enough to realize they must come up with a fresh excuse that you might buy, in order to keep abortion on demand available as retroactive birth control.
Voters of South Dakota, you'll get your chance in November to show the pro-abortion extremists that you are smarter than them ...and their tricks.

Playing Dumb about Initiated Measure 11

This article sounds like it was written by a very closed minded person. The decision should be between the families and whatever God they choose to believe in. The government has no right to tell women what to do with their bodies.
Does the government allow women to inject heroin into their bodies? Does the government allow women to prostitute their bodies? I think we both know the answer to both of those questions. And in both cases, these activities are only hurting their own bodies; abortion kills another human being--one whose very right to live is being abrogated.
Anyone who cannot or will not acknowledge this is indeed a very closed-minded person.
