God has given all of us the right to choose, before we lay together!
I certainly pray that the President and the Republican Congress, take seriously their elections to office. It's time to stop the Slaughter of the Innocent.
I totally agree. It is time we demanded that our Republican elected officials begin stating in no uncertain terms that abortion is MURDER!
Women's lives are on the line every time an unconstitutional restriction on the RKBA is upheld. Zot the gun-grabbers, and everything else will fall into place. (/sweeping generalization)
That kind of rhetoric is why NOW is socal movement footnote. According to the talking heads, even if a pro-life, anti-Roe judge is appointed there are not enough votes to overturn Roe V Wade. Even if the talking heads are wrong and it does get overturned, no women's lives are at stake.
Drama queens.
Let's at least be honest about the debate. Women's health is not the issue. I'd guess that only a miniscule amount of abortions are for women's health. The vast majority are stricly a convenient method to erase an already bad choice.
It's now strictly political and I'm sick and tired of the MSM and their femenist lackeys saying this is a women's health issue.
It might be helpful to do some research and show the comparison of all the babies actually killed next to the women who would have died or suffered terrible health problems without having an abortion. I would hazard to guess that it would be better than 100,000 to 1.
“Women's lives on the line”
No, you bunch of liberal dummkrophs. It’s your very existence as a party that is on the line. Funny how you folks hide behind women’s skirts when the going gets a little tough.
The website of the National Organization for Women opens with an "Emergency Alert" pop-up that warns "Justice O'Connor Resigns ... Women's Lives on the Line."
Yes they are. Particularly the unborn ones.
university educated feminists control most of the newspapers in the u.s.
so, we'll be reading some hateful stuff.
(Denny Crane: "Sometimes you can only look for answers from God and failing that... and Fox News".)
Yeah!
Too bad about those 20 million women aborted since Roe vs. Wade.
As opposed to the intended reference to the women who might "choose" to endanger their lives, in the attempt to kill their babies.
What is on the line here is the lives of future children and if the Constitution will survive.
If congress will not act to overturn some of the supreme's rulings..., it is time for citizens to realize that the Supreme Court has no enforcement arm or Supreme Court Cops to enforce their rulings.
What the National Organization for Women and other pro-abortionists never want to talk about are the number of women who die each year from abortion induced complications. During or after legal abortion, how many American women die each year from:
- severe internal hemorrhage
- air embolism
- general cardiac arrest while under general anesthesia
- a oxygen deprived brain
- poisoning by other and unspecified drugs and medicinal substances during and following the procedure
And how many American women have been injured or disabled by therapeutic misadventure, meaning botched procedures, excessive anesthesia, and subsequent infection eventually leading to life threatening conditions such as pneumonia?
The death rate of American females is 100%. Sadly, in a country of such wealth, women continue to die every day. And it's all George Bush's fault!
Like fornicating for virginity. Purposely kill millions to prevent a few accidental deaths.
The left will be in full cry. We need to jam conservative judges down their throats and let the political chips fall where they may. The Republicans should know the chips will fall our way but who knows about this group of Republicans? We can depend on the ambitious rhinos to pander to the leftist media.
The left is a small group of Americans whose voice is amplified by an even smaller group of power seekers and useful idiots.
The unions and their millions of dollars and forced political assistants are a big free asset for the left. That includes labor unions like the AFL-CIO, the UAW, the airline unions, the actors guild, the performers unions, the unions for the restaurant and hotel workers, all government employees, state and federal as well as many locals, and the the teachers unions who forcefully extractsd money from the members' paychecks to fatten themselves and support the Democrat Party. That is a lot of free money for the left which we have to go out and raise.
There are quite a few NGOs who pretend to be otherr than they are who raise a lot of money for the left. AARP comes immediately to mind.
The media is for all practical purposes free campaign workers and advertisers for the left. They slant the news to fit the leftist spin. We hear none of the good news from Afghanistan and Iraq, just a constant drum beat of death, gloom, and doom. Morals and religion, especially Christianity, are vilified while homosexuality and promescuity are condoned and protected. Racial and class divisions are promoted while decrying racism et al. The poor are kept poor by the stifling of free enterprise and the promotion of government handouts.
Throw in even more money from the outside from people like Soros and the Chinese and the left has quite a treasure chest with which to promote themselves and denigrate us. They intend to overthrow our government and change our lives for the worse.
Judges are their next best hope since they can't garner enough support from the people. We have to suck it up and fight them as Churchill implored the British to do during WWII.
NOW smooches up to politicians who want to systematically take away a woman's right to defend herself against violent criminals. I don't know why anyone takes them the least bit seriously.
NOW has had "hate Bush" crap on their website for years. NOW can pound sand. Time for the nuclear option.
One side resolutely insists on approaching the debate as "stopping the murder". A more incendiary way to phrase it is hard to imagine.
The other side insists on just as mindless a rhetorical hand grenade, this post being a good example: "... womens' lives are on the line".
A pox on both their houses.
The concept of actually making a resolution possible presently is not in the mix. This is due not only to the hyperbole, but also to a real, palpable societal ill; a real disease which is as obvious as diptheria, syphilis and the plague, and every bit as disruptive and damaging to society.
I call this malady "Rhetorical Cognitive Dissonance". The ability to string together absurdities, contradictions and stupidities with the real or pretended ability to totally ignore or dismiss the absurdities, contradiction and stupidities. Thought is a distant memory.
The objectives and differences of each group are actually pretty simple.
The pro-abortion group insists that abortion is a "right" as important as the First and Second Amendments; absurdity No. 1. Being a "right", it allows them to use the fallacy that a right is not really a right, unless one has the money to exercise it (or the intelligence to budget for it). Therefore the public (the rest of us) is obligated to fund unlimited, open-ended abortions.
The other side, considering the whole concept of abortion murder, would prohibit it all together, under any circumstances, pubicly or privately financed. Period.
Not exactly the best circumstances for a "cease fire" type resolution, which is crystal clear, at least to me.
Define abortion as a personal choice, but prohibit absolutely and permanently the public financing of it directly or indirectly.
If the "concern" to enable abortions as casually as getting a tattoo is real, and honest, private funding can, and would deal with the necessary ones and discourage the "casual" ones born (if you'll pardon the expression) out of convenience, selfishness and stupidity.
But back to the bigger problem, the saturation in all of our society with the "Rhetorical Cognitive Dissonance" infestation. Just the recognition of it should be troublesome. It has invaded every nook and cranny of public cultural and political debate, and also, of course international relations. The UN has been reduced to babbling incoherent speech and actions more appropriate to "One Flew Over the Cuckoos Nest": cute, but totally useless, dysfunctional, pathological and counterproductive.
Unless we recognize the illness and resolve to eradicate it totally and permanently, like polio, we can expect an endless set of crises, domestic and international, into the dim, distant future.
Eradicating it is simple: whenever it is attempted, the response should be, "that is silly if not stupid; We will not dignify it* by even debating it".
* "It" being a proposal, a complaint, expressions of "outrage", demands, threats or the usual juvenile techniques that pass for adult debate these days, both domestically and internationally.
Must millions of little ones die?
