The reason for the silly title? The annoyance of seeing "War on Women" flash across a tv screen (MSNBC), earlier this morning as Roe v. Wade was being discussed by talking heads.
On the 41st anniversary of Roe v. Wade, I happened to read Hot Air linked in the Most Wanted section of FA:
“Everyone”? Well, not exactly, but only if you think for more than a few seconds about human biology and the consequences of abortion. The White House put out this statementtoday hailing Roe v Wade on its 41st anniversary:What of the woman who made her "own choices about her body and her health" when she chose to have sex? (Let's not bring up cases of incest and rape and medical reasons, which account for 1% and 6% of abortions, respectively).

Today, as we reflect on the 41st anniversary of the Supreme Court decision in Roe v. Wade, we recommit ourselves to the decision’s guiding principle: that every woman should be able to make her own choices about her body and her health.
We reaffirm our steadfast commitment to protecting a woman’s access to safe, affordable health careWhat is meant here by "access" and "affordable", hmm?
"deserves the same freedom and opportunities to fulfill their dreams"?! Or simply not live with the "consequences" and "regrets" of the freedom of having made certain choices in life?and her constitutional right to privacy, including the right to reproductive freedom. And we resolve to reduce the number of unintended pregnancies, support maternal and child health, and continue to build safe and healthy communities for all our children. Because this is a country where everyone deserves the same freedom and opportunities to fulfill their dreams.
I'm sorry this is going to be a short post, as I am in between work-jobs; but as a former fetus and someone who survived his pre-birth, due to having been born in '68 rather than in '73...and as someone who may carry memories even prior to his birth, I find myself more and more aligned with those who are anti-abortion and pro-life. I was born in Phoenix, Arizona. Adopted as a baby to loving parents. I don't know the circumstances surrounding my birth mother's decision to give me up for adoption. Had Roe v. Wade been decided before '68, I might not be here today. Some could care less. Others most likely would say I've enriched their lives, and improved my little corner of the universe.

OBAMA’S HIDEOUS MORALLY INDEFENSIBLE POLICY ON ABORTION.
“Obama, the man who is carrying out the slaughter of the innocents with the same enthusiasm as Herod and Pharaoh calls for us to find a way to live together as one human family. “

As if to rub salt in the wound opened by Notre Dame’s invitation to deliver the commencement address and receive an honorary degree yesterday, Barack Obama lectured Catholics about abortion.
He said it’s time for common ground on the issue and an approach to the life-and-death debate with “open hearts, open minds and fair-minded words.”
I suppose that’s understandable.
If I were presiding over a public policy that called for the murder of unborn babies for any reason or no reason at all, that provided mandatory public funding of those procedures both domestically and in foreign countries, that required doctors and nurses to perform abortions even if they were conscientiously opposed, that permitted experimentations on living human embryos, that promoted even partial-birth abortions outside the womb and that called for the extermination of infants who somehow defied all the odds and managed to survive efforts to kill them before birth, I guess I would want to frame the debate in such a way as to diminish the hideous monstrousness of my morally indefensible
He doesn’t really want people who recognize what abortion is to approach the debate with “open hearts.” He wants us to harden our hearts.
We won’t do that.
The only hearts and minds being opened in this debate and the hearts and minds of little innocents – sliced open surgically in the most barbaric fashion because of activist judges exceeding their authority and morally bankrupt politicians like Obama and his cohorts in the Congress.
These are the most “fair-minded words” I can muster to describe Obama’s efforts at soft-pedaling his own bloody and extremist policies on abortion.
Obama said: “Each side will continue to makes its case to the public with passion and conviction. But surely we can do so without reducing those with differing views to caricature.”
Let me translate this for you.
“Now that my side in this debate is in control of all the levers of power and is enforcing its will on the other side, it’s time for a nice civil dialogue on abortion.”
That’s what Obama would like.
Let me be the first to say, “No way, buster!”
You want to kill babies? You’re going to have to accept the consequences of righteous moral indignation. You’re going to have to accept being called out for what you are doing.
You’re going to have to accept the conviction that comes with the abomination of child sacrifice. Your going to have to accept being labeled for what you are.
Obama even acknowledged he knows what this debate is all about – characterizing abortion as a “heart-wrenching” decision for any woman.
Why is abortion a “heart-wrenching” decision for a mother?
Because it’s a decision to kill one’s child – materialistic reasons, for reasons of convenience.
It should be “heart-wrenching” to decide to kill one’s child.
Obama’s policies are meant to remove the guilt, remove the consequences of irresponsible decisions, remove the issue of right and wrong, remove even the “choice” of those who disagree with him not to participate in any way in the slaughter at the altar of Baal.
“We must find a way to live together as one human family,” he said in closing.
That’s quite a statement.
The man who is carrying out the slaughter of the innocents with the same enthusiasm as Herod and Pharaoh calls for us to find a way to live together as one human family.
How do we learn to live together as one human family when our offspring are being sacrificed to false gods and man-made religions?
How do we learn to live together as one human family when it means accepting coercion into active participation in the worst kind of evil perversion?
How does one live with oneself if it means tolerance of the intolerable?
No, I won’t play that game.
No, I won’t play by Obama’s rules.
The cartoon is relevant in its depiction of the “pro-choice” woman being vehemently upset that someone is pointing out that the growing fetus is a human baby.
That’s because it immediately follows that her “pro-choice” stance is actually condoning murder, or, more likely, that a “choice” she made in the past was actually choosing murder for her child.
This is at the root of a lot of the vitriol we see from the pro-aborts. They don’t want their sin put in front of their faces.
Mine did, but then I was a bad child. :)
