What Happens When There Is No Plan B? (or Conservatives made me have an abortion)
Washington Post ^ | Sunday, June 4, 2006 | Dana L

Posted on 06/04/2006 5:34:02 AM PDT by Fzob

The conservative politics of the Bush administration forced me to have an abortion I didn't want. Well, not literally, but let me explain.

I am a 42-year-old happily married mother of two elementary-schoolers. My husband and I both work, and like many couples, we're starved for time together. One Thursday evening this past March, we managed to snag some rare couple time and, in a sudden rush of passion, I failed to insert my diaphragm.

Why, oh, why was there no beverage warning on this post???
(mops coffee off monitor screen furiously)

Seriously though, this woman is a dunderhead and I'm trying very hard to be a Christian here and not wish awful things to happen to her and her husband. >:-(

I could not bring myself to read the entire article on Sunday Morning, but this portion caught in the mind of my soul: "This all could have been stopped way before this baby was conceived if they had just let me have that damn pill." The woman says 'this baby'; the attorney KNOWS she has a baby alive in her body yet she, as a goddess unto herself, chose to hire that alive baby killed! This POS admits that fact with not a twitch of remorse, not a twinge of loss, not a scintilla of compassion toward that inconvenient child, not a trace of spiritual awareness.

IF this article is true (and I doubt it since women like this one lie without the slightest moral compass, as supported by this woman choosing to write this article which is designed to encourage other pregnant women to kill their alive babies without remorse), this is the sad type of females the democrat societal engineering has spawned because this female didn't get this way in seven years, it has taken her a lifetime to become such a dead souled individual. Her current dead soul state is the clear result of democrap party policies and empowerment schemes ... she's a prime product of LIBERALISM, the disease in desperate need of eradication before it extinguishes the last rays of moral compass within the human family.

BTW, it will never consciously occur to this female that her story is a dastardly admission she is unfit to be an attorney where law is based in moral or ethical standards since she is all about exercising her own and only her own ethics, which of course are nothing like rule of law but rather rule of 'bleeding heart sliding scale'. Come to think of it, that's precisely the state of too many courts in America because of liberalized judges!

What a disgusting excuse for a woman this female proves herself to be. May God have mercy upon her children, those products of her self aggrandizement so long as they remain convenient. But heaven help these little ones should she decide they are no longer convenient to her goals and desires (and don't even mention the father's cares in all this, because she proves he's just her chosen sperm donor, she'll love him only so long as he serves her design specs) ... sigh, but then she and her husband both work so they will shunt the children off to nanny's, who will no doubt care about children far more than these self-indulgent pigs.

The mindset in this article is so wrong in so many ways.

One of the herd of elephants in the living room: why is one classification of citizens - pregnant females - given a "Plan B" (not the after-the-fact drug) that involves killing someone who is inconvenient or difficult?

And why does she also believe that those who take the Hippocratic Oath, and affirm

"I will neither give a deadly drug to anybody who asked for it, nor will I make a suggestion to this effect. Similarly I will not give to a woman an abortive remedy. In purity and holiness I will guard my life and my art."
should be coerced into going against that affirmation to serve her personal convenience in violence to their own integrity, thus making them accessories after the fact?

Speaking of politics, this administration's "politicization of religion" had nothing to do with the Hippocratic Oath, which, nevertheless, had to deal with those that wanted their physician to make their personal inconvenience go away.

She also resents not having the choice of an upscale Planned Parenthood where she doesn't have to rub shoulders with the sweaty unfortunate masses.

The selfishness of this amoral mindset is staggaring!

Speaking of no responsibility how did tripe like this make it into the Washington Post? Even for them it must have been a slow news day to put something like this in.

There is no issue here.

For $75 this woman could have gotten the "day after" pill on-line from at least 10 different US companies, and had it on hand in her medicine cabinet for any (gag!) spontaneous "magical moments" she and her husband decided to have.

Honestly, I think the story is a fake.

I am having a very difficult time picturing any 42 year old woman this ridiculously unable to take responsibility for her own body, decisions, ethics, family, and future.

Seriously, what can she possibly expect? Every action of her selfish silly little life to be 100% consequence free? Guilt free?

Like Finnigan2 wrote, what a shame she was so inconvenienced for a whole 3 hours that day.

And on the plus side, she may decide to go ahead and get fixed and then we can rest assured she will stop adding to the gene pool. Yay!

And if this couple was so sure that their family was set then why didn't one of them get fixed?

This is the most obvious question for this overgrown Valley girl. The answer? Because in the back of their minds, they knew they could always get an abortion. If the husband was any kind of adult, he would have gotten fixed himself and this pathetic comedy of stupidities would never have happened.

At this moment in time I am reminded why I am so incredibly grateful that neither John Skerry (shudder) or Algore (double shudder) made it into the White House.
What insanity would we be putting up with then?

That's the part that REALLY didn't ring true - after a number of years of marriage, the passion was so white-hot that she couldn't take a few minutes to put in a diaphragm? I'm very fond of my husband, but I never "forgot" mine!

George Bush stole it.

"That's how we got blessing #2."

The pill is supposed to be 99% effective. We had blessing #4 last year. I think I'm gonna get 'fixed'. lol

Although I've always been in favor of abortion rights, this was a choice I had hoped never to have to make myself.

Why Dana? If abortion is that hard why do you want people to be able to have them? Is this abortion for everyone but me?

I figured I'd take my chances and hope for the best.

Presumably, while GWB was standing behind you, cruelly pressing a 10" boning knife against your jugular all the while.

I agree with you. It is a made up story. She wrote the story to match her agenda of the day. She sounds like "the end justifies the means" kind of gal.

HaHa. That was blessing #1. My husband got fixed after blessing #3. We kind of decided that was the only way we were going to stop having babies short of abstinence, which wasn't going to happen!

LOL! I think we've said that very thing.

As we're both in our forties, my husband and I had considered our family complete, and we weren't planning to have another child...

I'm still in good health, but unlike the last time I was pregnant, nearly a decade ago, I'm now taking three medications. One of them, for high cholesterol, is in the Food and Drug Administration's Pregnancy Category X -- meaning it's a drug you shouldn't take if you're expecting or even planning to get pregnant.

Dana, since you "considered your family complete" and were taking a high risk drug if you're expecting or even planning to get pregnant, why the #*** didn't one of you get fixed? This was you and your husband's fault, and had nothing to do with politics.

At the bottom of the article is this for those that did not read the entire article on-line.

Dana L. is a lawyer and writer living in Virginia. Out of concern for her family's privacy, she requested that her last name not be published.

My BS meter is pegging on this entire article. I think this lawyer is trying to make a case for having the morning after pill made legal.
