Subscribe Feed (RSS)A Weekend Question For Liberals and Pro-Abortionists
January 5th, 2008 by Vlad | Filed under Pro Life, abortion, pro-choice..There is one big inconsistency in the pro-abortion camp. Today I was doing a little research on the presidential candidates. I am sure every concerned citizen of this country is doing the same. How can you not?!! After Iowa behind us and New Hampshire is just days away, we need to be concerned or at least interested who will lead this country in about 12 months. As some one that is concerned about candidates stance on abortion, I am defying the majority of Facebook- they want to hear more about economy. I on the other hand wanted to hear more about candidates stance on abortion. While I ma very familiar with republican candidates position on the issue, admittedly I did not know much about their rivals stance on abortion. So I decided to spend a little more time to study them. I am neither shocked nor am I surprised by what was I able to learn. I did however found one interesting similarity. No matter how strong was pro-abortion stance of any of the democratic candidates, every single one of them, one time or another, acknowledged that things should be done to reduce abortions.
My question is why? The pro-abortion activists shout on the top of their lungs that right to abortion empowers women. Should not we strive to increase the number abortion since they are so empowering? Where is the consistency???
W Shedd,
This post is not about the women who make the decision. Decision to abort is the most shattering decision she ever makes, and has to live the consequences for the rest of her life.
I do however question politicians and pro-abortion pundits and their consistency.
since you are building a straw man
Common comrade! Give me a some credit.
Where is the consistency in your grammar and spelling

Sometimes the people who shout the loudest are trying to convince themselves – and some part of them has doubts that just won’t go away.
Easy question to answer, since you are building a straw man.
Nobody says that abortions are empowering – that is your bad logic and twisting of words to create a false point.
What is empowering is a woman’s right to choose when she has a child.
Hopefully, she does that in the most responsible manner, by making careful choices in her partners and safe sex/birth control. In those situations where a woman becomes pregnant at a time when she is not able or prepared to have a child, she has decisions to make. Adoption is one option and abortion is another.
I don’t know anyone who makes or has made such choices lightly. Still, I believe it should remain a lawful choice for a woman to make, in those situations where no other options are available.

To call anyone pro-abortion is absolutely absurd.
Pro-choice is the term, and CHOICE is what is empowering, not the act of abortion.
You might be as likely to find someone saying “yes! abort more fetuses!” just like you’d find someone saying “yes! give everyone more alcohol!”
t might not be a direct connection, but…just because you may choose something, doesn’t mean we, as a country, need more of it.
The right to choose needs to be protected at all costs. That is not to say that finding alternative methods (other than criminalization) to reduce the feeling of necessitation of abortions is not possible, in fact, I am sure that’s the point you might find if you were to examine the Democratic candidates’ stances more closely.
No one (except for seriously messed up people) wants to have to make the choice to have an abortion. It is not a pleasant experience, no woman goes, “YES! An unwanted pregnancy! Now I get to have an abortion!”
I am fully pro-choice, and I COMPLETELY agree that the number of abortions that have to be performed should be reduced.
We need proper education about birth control in American schools, not this shitty half-assed “abstinence only” crap people are spouting. Abstinence-only sex ed, “purity balls” and Catholic propaganda are not effective — around the same percentage of people have premarital sex (and around the same percentage of Catholic women get abortions as non-Catholic women) whether or not they have been brainwashed by these things.
I got kind of sidetracked there, but the point is that being pro-choice is not being pro-abortion, in the sense that abortion is WANTED. It’s the CHOICE that we want. We don’t WANT there to have to be abortions, but if a woman feels she cannot have a baby for whatever reason, we want that right for her to choose a safe, clean procedure.
Nathan,
Considering the fact that English is not my first language, I think I am doing not bad at all. And please do not come back to this blog.
Abstinence is is the only method that prevents pregnancies in teenagers. Call it whatever you want but it does.
When it come to brain washing it is more like all the way around, we are brainwashed about the birth control. No contraception is 100% proof. Every pregnancy resulting from failed birth control is an unwonted pregnancy. Even if it is carried- there is a danger later on to tell the child that he or she was a mistake. A result of failed contraception. Besides some contraceptives are intentionally made to have higher failing rate than others:

If you say that the CHOICE is what you want, why there is so much ado about sidewalk counseling??? Women walking into the clinics are not likely to be offered other choice than abortion.
You right outlawing the abortion will not eliminate the issue. I sure there will be states that would challenge Supreme Court decision if Roe vs Wade was overturned. However it will dramatically reduce the number of abortions.
What about parental notification laws? Do they empower anyone? What about a woman who had an abortion (because she had the “choice”) needs to answer the question every time she visits a doctor? Is that empowering?

My question has always been what about the Right of the Child to live. Almost no one would argue that the fetus of a 2nd trimester child isnt viable anymore. Ron Paul 2008!

It’s too bad that Ron Paul could is not a front runner. I would definitely support his candidacy over any other candidate.

Ok it is simple No sex just MasterB =no prob.
No sex before marriage. Natural family planing instead of contraception. Every failed contraception brings about unexpected (and often unwanted) pregnancy. With natural family planing a married couple may try to avoid pregnancy however they always open to the gift of life because they know that that gift comes from God.

If you are FOR legalized abortion you are pro-abortion. ” Pro” and “for” mean the same thing.
