3.) Most importantly. Pissed off religious right that was threatening to loudly bolt because ya'll were spending too much time on stuff like bankruptcy and social security and North Korea when you should have been saving the soul of the nation. They brought in the votes but weren't seeing no love. Ya gotta dance with those what brung you and all that.

Does your analysis allow for room for people who are sincerely troubled by society's seemingly coarsening attitudes towards the sanctity of life? Who are maybe choosing the wrong case in which to speak up, but whose motives are something a bit more honorable than how you characterize them?
