Democratic Debate 9 March

Words mean things. If you just want to say that you believe in a woman’s right to choose, then there’s no need to invoke her doctor. That is actually an appeal to authority, to invoke a trusted person who shares the decision on whether to abort a pregnancy.

But I do realize that when Democrats say that it’s just more political talk. Democrats do not believe that the decision to prescribe pain pills is strictly between a woman and her doctor.
