Hollywood Elite Help Pro-Abortion Group's TV Ad Campaign

Hollywood, CA — The pro-abortion Feminist Majority Foundation on Monday launched its nationwide "Never Go Back" campaign, which aims to keep abortion legal in the United States. And it's receiving help from several of Hollywood's elite actresses and musicians.

Katherine Spillar, executive vice president of the abortion advocacy group who spoke at the campaign launch, said that the Supreme Court could have vacancies as soon as this summer, and those vacancies could threaten Roe v. Wade.

Spillar emphasized the importance of Senate leadership — especially pro-abortion Senate Minority Leader Tom Daschle (D-SD) — in questioning all of President Bush's judicial nominees about their abortion stance and filibustering the nomination of anyone who does not take a stand on abortion rights.

"What a jurist thinks matters. It affects how they vote," Spillar said.

Actress Amy Brenneman, who was scheduled to be the event's featured speaker but could not attend the meeting for medical reasons, sent a video message to the group of about 50 people saying, "Reproductive freedom is the most important issue facing our leaders today," adding, "It is not a feminist issue. It is not a liberal issue. It is a women's health issue."

Other celebrities involved in the 20-state campaign include: Ashley Judd, Whoopi Goldberg, Tyne Daly, Minnie Driver, Cybil Sheppard, Morgan Fairchild, Camryn Manheim, and Gillian Anderson.

about the feminsit majority foundation from their website:

"Led by FMF President Eleanor Smeal, our research and action programs focus on advancing the legal, social and political equality of women with men, countering the backlash to women's advancement, and recruiting and training young feminists to encourage future leadership for the feminist movement in the United States.

To carry out these aims, FMF engages in research and public policy development, public education programs, grassroots organizing projects, leadership training and development programs, and participates in and organizes forums on issues of women's equality and empowerment. Our sister organization, the Feminist Majority, engages in lobbying and other direct political action, pursuing equality between women and men through legislative avenues."


This is the statistical mis information the spout:

"That Name:
Feminist Majority
The name Feminist Majority is a consciousness-raiser, inspired by a Newsweek/Gallup public opinion poll that showed the majority of women (56%) in the United States self-identified as feminists. Most polls since then reveal that this majority continues with over two-thirds of young women self-identifying as feminists. Most men, especially young men, view themselves as supporters of the women's rights movement."

Translation, young men that the feminsts have bullied and drugged into a stuppor. (men who support feminists like this are really really despererate for sex)

"Reproductive freedom is the most important issue facing our leaders today," adding, "It is not a feminist issue. It is not a liberal issue. It is a women's health issue." 'It is a woman's health issue' ... that's some overt affirmation of supreme selfishness, ignoring the alive children waiting to be born, in favor of ONLY women's choice. To compound the offense, these irrational 'people' count the start of reproductive freedom at a point well beyond the start of the reproductive process, thus chopping off the first part of the continuum they wish to assault, the individual human life of a conceived fellow human being! Now, if they want to go back to the beginning, to conception, and argue for the right to not conceive, that's another fish to be fried. Apparently, the minds of these females cannot comprehend the paradoxical nature of their rant! [Minny Driver?... Darn, that hurt! I liked her work.]

The moral degeneracy either out of ignorance or sheer depravity of these people is astounding. A review of these tapes made involving conversations between a 13 year old and PP demonstrates the agenda of PP. I thought that nothing could shock me when it came to PP but I was wrong.

Thank you, Ms. Spillar, for that update from the No [Kidding] Sherlock update desk.

An abortion clinic is not only a "weapon of masses destruction"but a place for women to dump the responsibility they created.

Ashley Judd, Whoopi Goldberg, Tyne Daly, Minnie Driver, Cybil Sheppard, Morgan Fairchild, Camryn Manheim, and Gillian Anderson.

With the exception of a couple of nags on there, it is mostly losers and has-beens.

This is the first time I've posted on freepers; my husband got me started on the site a few weeks ago, I guess around the time the liberation of Iraq began.
But this is a real important issue to me. "Abortion"

Because the hollywood left and the rest of the democrats are big on pretending that they are not "religious". What they are, in fact, is EXTREMELY religious.

They are the Extreme Religious LEFT. Their abortuaries are on hallowed ground to them. The abortuaries themselves are their temples, where they carry out child sacrifice to their satanic god. Some of the temples look like clinics to the uninitiated. But they're SHRINES to the religious LEFT.
And the "hospitals" where these child sacrifices are carried out are no different than the "hospital" in Iraq where Soldier Jessica Lynch was held and had her legs broken, by subhumans pretending to be "doctors": just like here in the U.S., in the "hospitals" where babies have THEIR legs broken - or cut off, or burned - by subhumans calling themselves doctors.
No wonder the Religious LEFT loves Saddam - he's one of them.

That's why it's referred to as "the Sacrament of Abortion."

It's the sort of ritual which used to be reserved to the BlackMass (Satan's own version of the RC Mass...)

BTW, welcome to FR. This can be fun...

I just can't stop loving Gillian. I know the woman is a leftist and all, but at least she is not in your face about it like the Hollywood Halfwits.

Thanks for the welcome. Yes, I DO like the idea our side being the activists for a change, and I am very impressed with the caliber of people on the freepers site. As I told someone else, from what I've seen, the freepers CANNOT be BS'd by anybody, no matter how hard the 'anybodies' try. And it's fun to watch.
