Oh? I've never heard of the media refer to pro-lifers as "pro-life." They're always "anti-abortion." Pro-aborts, however, are always pro-choice. Unless you're NARAL, then pro-lifers are "anti-choice."

Control the meaning of words, control the argument.

Kieri, you are spot on!!....Good vanity.

NARAL, Planned Parenhood, et al, always change the word & the game when it suits their purpose.

They have obfuscation to an art form.

FWIW, I tuned them out a while back...(even though I watched them almost daily for years)

Exactly. Liberals are masters at this; change the meaning of words to induce an emotional response, not a thoughtful one. Another example is "jungles" becoming "rain forests." And, voila'!, the radical environmentalists have their hook...

You have it exactly right. From the beginning, the abortion "rights" camp has used semantics to smoke-and-mirror the truth and reality of what their ideology is. They got by with it handsomely.
