The GOP rebranded! 'The Partial Life Party'!
I just heard this listening to Rhandi Rhode's radio show. One of her callers - unfortunately I did not catch his name - made the suggestion.

Rhandi went on to says things like... "They love the fetus but hate the child".

To me, such a label, if it caught on, would put the right-wing-freak-show's supposed 'pro-life' philosophy on par with 'partial birth abortion'.

If there was such a thing as truth in advertising, 'The Partial Life Party' it would be.

1. I heard that too...
...I think it works better as a bumper sticker slogan:

GOP: The Partial Life Party - Fetuses and Brain Deads Welcome

...than it did when the caller made his semi-heroic call to Randi. There are other times in the past where Randi would have blown this guy off.

I suspect.

But she, to her credit, allowed the caller to make his point, and I think he did.

3. I heard that too, but I thought they were calling it the
partial pro-life party... letting them keep their beloved 'pro-life' name with a modifier added.

As if opposition to abortion is the only criteria... :eyes:
