Planned Parenthood 'Celebrates' Roe v. Wade (PROJECTILE VOMITING ALERT)
Focus on the Family ^ | 29 Oct 02 | Stuart Sheperd

Posted on 10/31/2002 10:53:12 AM PST by Mr. Silverback

Under the heavily ironic heading "Behind Every Choice is a Story," Planned Parenthood is advertising an artwork and poster contest "celebrating 30 years of choice."

Serrin Foster, with Feminists for Life, is concerned about the images in the minds of women who have suffered through an abortion.

"And I think what they're going to miss are the untold stories of women who've had abortions and all the millions of young men and young women who aren't with us this year," Foster said. "The thoughts that they're going to have on the 30th anniversary of Roe v. Wade imagining the children that they will never know."

Roe v. Wade is the 1973 case that the U.S. Supreme Court used to legalize abortion on demand.

The call for contest entries proclaims, "Each entrant can share the satisfaction and pride of participating in this national contest."

Focus on the Family Bioethics Analyst Carrie Gordon Earll said Roe v. Wade affords the nation nothing positive.

"What's to celebrate? 40 million abortions? 40 million dead preborn babies? Untold thousands of women who are physically and psychologically maimed? I don't think that's anything worth celebrating."

Earll calls abortion a "desperate act to resolve what feels like a desperate situation," and lamented Roe v. Wade and Doe v. Bolton, another case that paved the way for legalized abortion.

"Roe v. Wade and Doe v. Bolton had an astounding impact, not only on the jurisprudence of abortion law in this country, but on how women look at motherhood,

how it has eroded the relationship between mother and child."

She said they impact fatherhood as well.

The anniversary of Roe v. Wade is January 22.

Expect posters like the sickening NARAL TV ads: lots of stuff that they think makes their point beautifully but actually reminds people how sick it all is. Bet they get a bunch of entries showing little kids..."Will she grow up in a world with choice?" Blecch!

I love when these milestones come up and the pro-abortion crowd is falling all over themselves trying to keep Norma McCorvey out of the papers.

"Behind Every Choice is a Story,"

"Behind Every Choice of murder is a Story of selfish ambition,"

Pro-Choice and the killing of the innocent is like watching a Hitler backed national org. triumphing over the Genocide of the past.

This genocide continues and the country is being destroyed in the process.

We must use the tools of the left against them. We must call for the adoption of “common sense “abortion control. We need to nip and take a little bit at a time as they are doing with gun control. To start we must pass parental notification. How can any parent be against knowing what their daughters are doing? Then we must push for a 72 hour cooling off period. No one could find an argument against that requirement. Then we have to hit them with partial birth abortion. There is no medical justification for this procedure other than as birth control. These “common sense controls can not be rationally disputed. After all, it’s for the Children.

Perhaps a "non-birthday" cake to memorialize the millions of murdered babies would be appropriate for Jan 22.

"Bet they get a bunch of entries showing little kids..."Will she grow up in a world with choice?"

"... or can we stop her before it's too late?"

Abortion bumper sticker: "My child will never be an honor student."

or: "I believe in abortion! Thank God my mother didn't..."

Considering who we're talking about, how about a political rally to show our support for the dead...

...Never mind, who'd do that?

Roe v. Wade is the 1973 case that the U.S. Supreme Court used to legalize abortion on demand.

Can anyone explain to this to me:

If I were to stick a rod into someones head, suck out their brains the public, police, courts and newspaper would scream. I would be described as a monster and should be put to death.

Yet the same group, although not all, see no problem with doing the same to a baby still in the mothers womb waiting to be born.

They call one act murder and the other abortion. Both act result in death.

AND THE DIFFERENCE IS ??????????????????????????????

Not that I want Norma to be prosecuted for purjury, she admitted that she lied and was "engulfed" by liberals whom used her to get the law changed. With the courts re thinking the death penalty for criminals with IQ's 70 and below, they should reverse their decision on abortion law, since it was based on false statements, i.e. A LIE!

Just my thoughts...

Those "pro-choice commercials were amazing. In their world, the little girls pictured would be dead via "choice". The sick freaks.

How do pro-choice parents explain their position to their kids, "Isn't it beautiful that mommy had a right to kill you by dismemberment when you were a prenatal baby? Do you value the fact that your life if less important to me than my lifestyle? How will that affect your own dealings with the world?"

She said they impact fatherhood as well.

To a galactic degree. Fatherhood is based upon the right and responsibility to protect one's own children; RVW says fathers can't and should not want to. Result: society going to hell...

Feminist women have the political power to get away with it. Period. Does that clarify?
