Jenny Kutner, who is the Assistant Editor of the pro-abortion website, Salon.com, announced in an August 1st article that she was having an abortion this past weekend. In the article, Kutner explains how she took measures to prevent pregnancy by placing a copper IUD in her uterus one year ago.
She writes, “I don’t want to have an abortion, which is why I got an IUD — to give myself a 99 percent chance of not having to consider the procedure for a decade, or ever. (Clearly the IUD failed, so I guess I’m the 1 percent.) What I definitely, definitely don’t want, immeasurably more than I don’t want to have an abortion, is to be pregnant or have a child. So I’m not going to. At least, not right now. ”
Then she continues by thanking her lucky stars that she no longer lives in her hometown of Texas because in New York she is trusted to make her own decision. “There are no mandated ultrasounds in New York; no condescending scripts for the doctors to read; no increasing shortage of clinics because of legal entrapments that endanger women’s health,” Kutner said.
However, she completely avoids the core of pro-life ideology, which is that the unborn child temporarily housed in a women’s body is a living person, just like the rest of us. The pro-life movement’s opposition to abortion has nothing to do with failing to trust women to make their own decisions. Rather, it is about the reality that abortion is always the wrong decision, no matter the circumstances of a woman’s pregnancy.
Ultimately, pro-life ideology is based on biology, not on semantics or a desire to remove women’s rights. It centers on the fact that an unborn baby has a separate body, separate genetic makeup, and a separate heartbeat that its mother. The growing human is very similar to you and me, and now because of advances in ultrasound technology, we can watch the child smile, yawn, stretch, suck its thumb, and even smile.
The reasonable conclusion to come to after surveying these facts is that these tiny humans should be given the same rights and protections as the rest of society. But instead of discussing any of this in her article, Kutner sticks with words like “women’s health” and “entitlement” to clarify why her decision is her “right “as an American citizen.
She concludes by saying, “I don’t know what comes next, how or if this will change who I am. Maybe it will, maybe it won’t. I can’t know that now. It isn’t Saturday yet.”
One thing is certain, whether Kutner realizes it or not, her life will never be the same. Yes, she walked into a New York Planned Parenthood on Saturday pregnant, and yes, on Sunday she was no longer pregnant; but one does not walk away from a decision like that unaffected. In a matter of seconds, her baby will be ripped to shreds, and Kutner will forever be the mother of a dead baby. And with all my heart, I pray that maybe she reconsidered her decision.
Yeah, I read your posts. You are "pro-life" with the exception of certain groups, you think they should kill their babies.
Hell, Obama is "pro-life" for his favorite groups too.
You're a retread troll and nothing more.
3...2...1...
Had to make sure we used enough power to reach you in your mom's basement.
I think you nailed it on the Stormfron label.
NOBODY can be as stupid as Chewy. Previous posts....

Post #26 by dfwgator: Only wish her mother had done the same thing.
Do all of you take all life so cavalierly?”

Yes they do. By now I’m used to these remarks and maybe I should not be. They keep forgetting it is not only the liberal women who have abortions, many a conservative women are on the abortion table. Those women could be someone in their own family. Funny how it seems okay when it happens to the enemy, things change when it hits close to home.
Ok, next time I’ll just quote Reagan then,
“And I’ve noticed that everybody that is for abortion has already been born.”
No sense in arguing with folks who favor abortion. The pro-lifers need to change hearts.....not minds. I pray for this woman and her child.
Unfortunately, as this thread has demonstrated, their are quite a few "conservatives" who are pro-abortion for certain groups of people.
dfwgator, I know you to be a fine FReeper and I sincerely apologize for suggesting otherwise.
Wagglebee, we have a fan....don't know about you, but I'm thrilled!
BTW, you hopeless moron, your tagline should be CatherineofAragon AND Wagglebee.
I need to run out and do some shopping, unfortunately...I sure would like to stay for the festivities. I'll check in later. :)
BTW, this has to be the world’s fastest retread of a retread.

Reagan had a way of nailing in on the head. :)
