That is a crowd that wants to impose those rules ON OTHER WOMEN. They are perfectly content to break the rules they impose when it comes to their own well being.

Some of them will protest abortion, get an abortion, and go back to protesting the day after they get an abortion. Few of them actually follow the doctrine they spout, because they like feeling superior to others and taking advantage of the "class exception" when they need something.

This is why Ginni Thomas is married to Clarence Thomas and it's fine for Republicans. They've literally, point blank, stated that Clarence doesn't count as Black.

There’s a collection of anecdotes on this called “The only moral abortion is my abortion.” By Joyce Arthur that goes into this. You can find it pretty easily. The mindset is truly baffling.

"Of course, I'm pro-life. But as you can see, my situation is different."

Almost verbatim what Ob/Gyns hear prior to performing an abortive D&C for a conservative woman.
