I was too poor for an abortion (Huffington Post)
The Huffington Post ^ | 11/01/14 | Anonymous

...My doctor was wrong. How far wrong, I'm not actually certain and will never know. The ultrasound technician had an unreadable expression on her face, and let me know that I was further along than I had been told. However, she was going to mark it down as 19 weeks and some number of days.

Most likely, I was 20 weeks or more along, which meant that had she not done so, I would have been unable to get an abortion, as there was no medical need for it. If it had not been for that kind woman (and health care), I would have a five-year-old today...

She and her husband didn't have money for an abortion, but their state eventually paid for it. So state tax dollars do pay for abortion. What about Obamacare? Is it state-run?

She seems so happy about being able to kill her own innocent, unborn child.

State sponsored Murder. How is this different from Hitler’s final solution gas chambers?

The Huffy Post + “anonymous” = BS. Another fictional, liberal SOB story.

Not enough people see the extent to which we are living in Nazi Germany today. It's a fascist economy, government controls our health, we have multiple foreign wars, the government spies on us, our courts write our laws, legislated laws don't seem to matter much, our leader hates the Jews -- but is not specifically fighting the Jews (yet).

As far as I'm concerned, it's 1937 or so.

In your heart of hearts, you really don’t want her “burdened” with a child do you? Oh, that would be horrible. And just think if the “burden” was a down syndrome burden. Pretty disgusting. You know, maybe these type of people really shouldn’t have kids. Maybe some self imposed sterilization? Or maybe sandy fluke (rhymes with duck) could loan some condoms. Help prevent having some yucky tissue mass removed.

More dishonesty. She and her husband are not required by law to keep and raise a child. If they were too poor for a child the child could have been put up for adoption.

Lies, all lies.

I don’t understand. With so many couples wanting to adopt, why is an abortion the only answer? Aren’t there couples willing to share the medical costs leading to delivery if they can adopt the baby?

I am sure gestation date is lied about often. To abort kids that might even be viable. Far more horrible than having a five year old. That she could have relinquished for adoption. Vile.

You got me. I hear some say "oh I could never give up my baby!" So it is easier to kill it then wave bye-bye?

Yes.

So, instead of drawing pictures with her kid and wallpapering the fridge with them, she is writing this dreck?

Sad choice...

I am too. And there is no interest in these abortion workers facing any consequences.

From the story:

“I want an abortion.” The words shot out of my mouth. There was no hesitation; I had known for years that if I had ever gotten pregnant, I would terminate. I had no moral qualms about it, even though my family was all devoutly pro-life.

Not very much different.

AGENDA reinforcing.

What is so OBVIOUS to me it that the abortion-mad females are aborting their own flesh and blood, who MIGHT be in the same thought-mode as "mommy" and might very well continue the "abortion-thought."

I wonder if they ever thought of THAT?

What, and take a chance the little snot will run you down in like 20-30 years and lay a guilt trip on you?
