Never thought I would agree with what RethugniCON Jindal said in 2013
But yes, he is right about Greed-Over-People Party…
They need to “STOP BEING THE STUPID PARTY”
You will get more Americans killed during this pandemic!

The Stupid & Immorality is very strong in Gov. Ivey…
After all, she voted for Roy Moore!

Pro-lifer’s care only for the unborn.
Once they are born the caring ends along with medical care, housing, nourishment and more.

This is the party that loves the death penalty.

This is the party that hates abortion, wanting all children to be born, but then abandons those who did not win the lucky sperm club to a life of food insecurity, working three jobs to pay the rent and dying in penury without a pension or health insurance.

This party hasn’t been pro-life for a very, very long time. They’re all about “I got mine, dipstick!” and nothing else.

@uneducated beat me to it!
