"I'm incredibly bitter today. And disgusted. What the Supreme Court did today is nothing short of repugnant. I can't say that I'm exactly surprised that a group of conservative men chose to expand federal powers and sanction torture for women today by declaring the ban on late term abortions that President Bush signed in 1993 does not violate the Constitution.
No, not surprised that people who will never have any idea of what it means to be forced to choose between your own life or that of the fetus you're carrying would make such an emotional and irrational decision. None of these men will ever be forced to carry a fetus against their will. This decision will never impact them at all - all their wives, daughters, and mistresses are well off enough that they can fly to a more humane country if something unforeseen and awful happens during their pregnancies. It's the normal, every day women who will suffer. And what do they care? They got to make their point.
Does my life mean so little? Do the Supreme Court justices really think they have such vast medical expertise and personal knowledge of my health and personal life that they - not my doctor and not me - should be making my medical decisions? I realize that at the time the Constitution was written, women didn't really have any rights - but do they really think putting my health on the level of livestock is really the way to go?
Less than 2% of abortions occur after 21 weeks. Women do not run around getting knocked up willy nilly for the sheer pleasure of having invasive and painful surgeries, and they especially do not look forward to have to make a choice between getting chemo for cancer or sacrificing their lives for a healthy baby. Most men that I know do not want to face fatherhood alone - they do not want children enough to let their wives die for it. They do not look forward to the idea of letting the kid visit mommy in the graveyard.
It kills me - kills me - that pro-forced childbirth advocates are so happy about this! Do they think they've just saved countless lives? Do they honestly and truly think that this decision will stop late term abortions from happening? I know, I know, they don't give a rat's ass about the reality of the situation - just their f**ked up, rose-colored glasses worldview. "
(my edit on the swear word in the last sentence)
I agree!
PBA is to destroy the baby...period.
“The liberal Media lies about this alot!”
if everyone googles “Bernard Nathanson confession”
They will see exactly how the stats and propogands were completely made up just to sell abortion to the public.
Another good source...Lime5 by Mark Crutcher, shows how the death rate from abortion hasn’t changed since it was legalized.
It is all about ME
Not for the first 20 days :)
EVERY TIME THEY SHOW A PICTURE WITH SOMEONE HOLDING A HANGER.....COUNTER IT....WITH APICTURE OF A MURDERED BABY!
Good one.
BWahahahahahahaahaha!
how ‘bout a baby in one hand and a pair of scissors in another?
