elena,thanks for having the notification checkbox on the site. I haven’t been back a long time and appreciate notification so I can weigh in.
“Abortion” has been peddled by the dysfunctional twelve-steppers for so long that it produces a real knee-jerk reaction. I play games with them at the dining table by saying, “I’m thinking of having the choclate mousse. How do you feel about a portion?”
The seventeen-year-old above has like all of us already been pre-conditioned by the movement’s excellent PR skills (check out the RRTL site on how they cleverly manipulate the public’s esteem of babies into an esteem of an object which allegorically represents themself), which made me feel that first she had to latch onto someone whom she could trust enough to discuss the issue before pondering the three options she had.
Confronting it prematurely can cause difficulties later, although “post-abortion stress syndrome” is not one of them.

Has anyone ever heard of the law whenever you kill a pregnant women, you are held responsible for two murders? think about it. SO everyone that has or performs abortion is responsible for a MURDER. That is breaking the law. America, get your act together and facts straight.

Yup. A woman who miscarried after being hit by a drunk driver is either the unwitting dupe or the witting accomplice of the so-called “pro-life” movement in this state to get just such a law passed. I’ll be testifying against it. If I used the death of one of her children in Iraq to oppose the war, I’d be branded as heartless and manipulative. She’s doing the same thing. Another way to look at it is that she thinks she’s doing this for the “unborn,” but she’s really trying to address her own pain.
It’s one of the characteristics of the aborticentric– deal with one’s own issues through allegorical struggle: if you can score a win for a concept that represents you, then you feel you have dealt with the underlying issue. Actually, you haven’t, but you never learn that.

Amber, you need to learn about aborticentrism, i.e., the focus on abortion that is so great that it precludes care for human life. If you look at the so-called “pro-life” movement, what you see is people who care ABOUT life, but can’t or won’t care FOR it. I videotaped “Chain of Life” protestors and asked them if they were adoptive parents, Big Brothers or Sisters, volunteers in the public schools, family court guardians ad litem, etc. and got no’s from everybody except the ob/gyn guy who was making around $225,000 annually and had adopted 5 (his per capita income per family member was still 30% or so higher than the state average for a family half the size of his, so economically he wasn’t sacrificing). And by compelling other people to have children, they are simply putting society at risk for the next Ted Bundy or Green River Killer, among an army of other problems.
Why don’t so-called “pro-lifers” care? Why don’t they agitate for higher taxes for better public schools, work one-on-one with needy children, adopt a child not of their choosing every year? Because they can’t. They simply do not have the psychological equipment to sustain themselves in challenges beyond their control. To save time here, I’m going to have to direct you to google aborticentrism to find out why.
W@hat does all this have to do with your above post? Simply this: You are serving a very real psychological need for yourself by having abortion as your demon to fight. It gives you the advantage of defining the struggle in a way that allows you to win without risk– defining a fetus as a baby and hey, presto! now abortion is murder. However, although winning the battle makes you feel good, it doesn’t solve your underlying problem, while at the same time your win puts the rest of society at risk.
Now, you might say I’m wrong, but to prove my point, all I have to do is ask: Are you a Big Sister? A a guardian ad litem for children? A public school volunteer? How many children have you adopted? How many children have you adopted without stating a preference as to age, sex, race, or health status? How many hours a year do you volunteer one-on-one with children whose families won’t or can’t care for them adequately? And do you, as I did for over 20 years, donate 8% of your gross annual income to the upkeep of those children? And, when you answer these questions, if you lie it is further proof as to just how deeply aborticentric you are.

It seems to me a lot of people are pretty dumb.
Even down here in ‘tucky, we now know.
A women has the right to control her own body. If she wants an abortion that is her choice, none others.
Actually all quite simple.
Hands off. We have the liberty to control what we do with our bodies. They can no longer be enslaved to anyone else.
The fields grow tall, as does the wisom of the Union.
The stupids will die of naturally. The Wallaces of the world fade away, while the Lincolns, endure as shrines to the principles of freedom and self determination. We must protect the rights of all, even the disenfranchised. We will build a stronger America.

Thank you for this wonderful blog on abortion and abortion issues. It is few among many that allow the opposing perspective. Yet advocates for reproductive freedomes for women.
It is sad how poorly people who are against allowing a women the choice to control her own body are illiterate in regard to respond to questions posed to them.
They make no sense.
It is sad that they vote for legislators, but, that is the rule of law.
When they don’t get their way, they resort to violence.
I have yet to see one intelligent response from a person against choice answer a question about abortion.
Thank you for the fine commentary on abortion issues and services.

A woman has the right to control her own body across the reproductive spectrum. If she chooses Abortion as the best thing for her, then that is her right.
All the other very appropriate details count. Even in their absence Women still have that right.
It is the inalienable right to liberty of self determination that is… a pillar of our Republic as Hamilton and Madison wrote extensive volumes. Hume, Adams, Jefferson, Monroe, Franklin, Voltaire, Adam Smith, and all the great thinkers were of this disposition. From the begging of The Enlightenment to this very day.
This is a lofty way to view the issue, and is levels above the legal medical procedure of Abortion. And it is the basic principle why Abortion must, absolutely must be a woman’s choice and no others’. Otherwise we do not have a free Republic, and we should choose another form of governance.

The commentary on this blog is absolutely unique, refreshing and a delight.
To see a site fairly have open discourse is incredible.
To see people who try to legislate away a women’s right to choose not be able to defend their veiwpoints ever is incredible.
They are given every opportunity and they always fail.
It is astonishing.
Thanks again

Thinking that “they always fail” leads to complacency. It’s the reason why Rush Limbaugh, Glenn Beck and Fox News continue and Air America dies: the angry, powerless and vindictive people who seek to get even with and take control of our society pour money into them.
We who feel our cause (take your pick here) is inherently good and bound to triumph don’t operate from compulsion, and we tend to think that society’s institutions are on our side. So, when the Supreme Court hands Florida’s vote to Bush, when Secretary of State Ken Blackwell steals Ohio in ’04, or when the Court decides to free the so-called “pro-lifers” from the rule of the RICOH law, we complain, but we don’t develop a better strategy. We let complacency steer our course.
