San Diego, CA (PRWEB) January 21, 2010 -- In 1973, The U.S. Supreme Court gave women a choice. Thirty-seven years later, we’re giving them a voice.

BUMP+ premieres online January 22, 2010 Yellow Line Studio announces the premiere of BUMP+, a web series that follows three women facing unintended pregnancies. The pilot is scheduled to launch on Friday, January 22, 2010. Thirteen episodes will follow in February and March; and the final cliffhanger is so unpredictable, even the writers and producers don’t know how the series will end. “From Juno and Bella to Glee and Desperate Housewives, a woman’s right to choose has been explored across the entertainment landscape,” says Executive Producer Dominic Iocco. “What makes BUMP+ different from the others is that we’re letting the viewers decide how our characters’ stories will end. We’ve opened the official website to comments and our team will craft the final episodes based on audience feedback. Their choice really is up to you.”

"According to Co-Executive Producer Christopher Riley, the series concept was inspired by President Obama’s commencement speech to graduates at Notre Dame in May, 2009. 'He urged people on both sides of the debate to find ways to communicate about a workable solution to the problem of unintended pregnancies,' says Riley. 'That’s how we’re approaching this – as an experiment to see if story can succeed where nearly four decades of angry rhetoric and political posturing have failed. We’re not making a moral or political statement; hopefully, we’re starting a conversation with the audience'" --from the post.

Then expect the polls to be DUmped and DUped by useful idiots on the left and paid poll-bumpers.

It really is a disgusting/revolting idea for television [entertainment?].

Geeeez! Have you seen the show?
Have you any idea what the show is about?
Are you a hang 'em first then ask questions
Do you get facts before passing judgement?
Are you one of the ones who would be shouting, "CRUCIFY HIM! CRUCIFY HIM"

No. I'm not.

Now ask yourself the same question. How did you get that much breathless reaction out of a simple 3 word sentence? Perhaps you're a little too quick?

I have no doubt that there really are only a handful of deranged people out there who a actually "pro-abortion" as Rush calls them.

I assume (maybe wrongly) that anything with an open mind includes a "pro-choice" and/or "pro-life" viewpoint. This is not the same as what Rush frames it as Pro-life or pro-death, which is not really true.

So in the end, no matter what this is, it's the answer to his request, isn't it? And if it is a reasoned program or a set of "ads" for anything other than a strict "pro-life" only stance, then he will probably be sorry he asked for it, because it likely will not prove the point he desired.

No. I was quite clear.

YOU had no idea what YOU were talking about in #5.

Think about it, if it doesn't hurt too much.
