If there ever was a poster child for birth control, it would be Helen.

Looking at Helen is the best argument the abortionists have in their arsenal.

How fitting. Helen Thomas would be a perfect spokesmodel for birth control and abstinence.

She will serve as an object lesson to illustrate the hazards and risks involved before abortion was legal.

Helen Thomas, the human saltpeter! I think her face alone has prevented thousands of pregnancies.

How appropriate. If that face isn’t an abortifacient, it should be.

Please don't repeat the lie that Planned Parenthood is mostly about birth control or has anything to do with "women's health." They are definitely not familiar with the term abstinence (the liberated women has sex as often as possible, with as many different partners as possible). The are a business, who's primary money-making operation is abortion.

What an opportunity for retroactive birth control.

You’re right. However I couldn’t resist a Helen Thomas comment.

Sorry, it was a little mean.

Is it wrong to imagine what the world would be like today if Helen Thomas would have been aborted before she was born?
