Laws against partial birth abortion have been blocked by people like you, who put their amoral rationalizations over the values of society.
For example:
"Abortion is a moral right—which should be left to the sole discretion of the woman involved; morally, nothing other than her wish in the matter is to be considered." --Ayn Rand
Nice foot shot, BTW.
Not by me. I'm as pro-life as they come. So nice try there Skippy.
You're the one who insists it's my duty to bow down to the monsters who legalized this barbaric practice. You know with all that "societies laws and values" crap you've been spouting.
This is one of the few things Rand was dead wrong about. Abortion is an act of violence initiated against a completely innocent third party.
So don't presume that you know my attitudes on the subject.
"Abortion is a moral right—which should be left to the sole discretion of the woman involved; morally, nothing other than her wish in the matter is to be considered." --Ayn Rand
Cognitive dissonance.
Cognitive dissonance.
You don't know what that means, do you. I'm not holding two opposing ideas in my head simultaneously. I've never claimed to be an Objectivist, just that Rand was right about a hell of a lot more than what she was wrong about.
Nobody's perfect, Scooter.

Uh huh. Objectivist moral values are objective truths derived by reason, except when they're not.
I've never claimed to be an Objectivist, just that Rand was right about a hell of a lot more than what she was wrong about.
You've just unwittingly refuted the very basis of her "philosophy." An atheistic, materialistic, pro-abortion groupie of a serial killer seems mostly right to you?
Truly a slap in the face of objectivism. There is NO way the anointed one, or any of his minions, could rightly be called objectivists...NO way.
Objectism is self worship combined with a complete contempt for the values and desires of “average” people. Who manifests those characteristics more intensely than the anointed one?
Don’t think I agree with that...
Objectivism recognizes the selfish importance of individuals. Objectivists seek to be not directed by others and seek not to direct others in their social, moral, or ethical duties. I don’t see that as ‘complete contempt’ but rather ‘blatant non-concern’.
