lady_kishiriaI didn't know there was such a thing, but there is, so I'll get this done before midnight.
You often hear women say, "Well, I'd never have an abortion, but I support the right of any other woman to do it." That's not me. I can think of any number of reasons why I might have an abortion, and so I am pro-choice.
I want to see RU-486 brought into this country. It seems to me that pro-liars don't want it because they won't be able to wave their bloody fetus photos around since it induces abortions at a stage where the embryo is microscopic. You have to realize, I support legal abortion even MORE than I support it because I can't stand the pro-life crowd.
I've said that I do yearn for a day when abortion is no more. Seriously, I do. That would mean all contraception worked, that there was no rape and that all women were prosperous enough so that an unplanned pregnancy wouldn't be a big deal. That sounds good, doesn't it? When I pray for an end to abortion, that's what I mean. I don't think pro-liars mean the same thing.

I couldn't believe they were trying to pull the "the vaccine will encourage them to have sex" bit. As we all know, only the dread fear of HPV is keeping untold numbers of teenage girls and women from having sex.
Right. With what passes for sex ed these days, how many girls or guys even know what HPV is?
