Related: About this forumStop Bobby Schilling!
Cheri Bustos has an extreme misogynist running against her. In his latest email, he said abortion would have prevented great people from being born, like John Lennon, Nelson Mandela, and MLJ jr.
Is he serious?
Please support Cheri Bustos for Illinois 17th district!

(124,254 posts)1. That's the dumbest argument there is.
Abortion would also have prevented the births of Hitler, Stalin, Pol Pot, Idi Amin, Jeffrey Dahmer, Ted Bundy, etc. Whatever arguments a person can present against abortion, that is the dumbest and least persuasive. But then, what else can one expect from teabag dingbats?

Democrats redrew the districts this time. The 17th is a very Democratic district. It has always been gerrymandered. It was only changed a little, this time around.
