3. he DOES NOT support restrictions on partial birth abortions and can we please leave the RW framing

out of our vocabulary.

Tim Kaine supports late term abortion restrictions if the life of the mother is taken into consideration. That is perfectly in line with democratic policies and principles. Exactly the law of the land right now.

These procedures are RARE, and the RW will never agree to the "life of the mother" caveat. So therefore this meme that he support restrictions on partial birth abortion is a right wing meme designed to confuse and divide democrats. People need to educate themselves on this before purporting to be the factual voice.

Again, another man telling us women what is what, when he is WRONG. Please stop this.
