[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Those of you sitting in judgment are pathetic.

Unless you are there to raise those children, provide for them, and support policies that provide the things you aren't willing to do (parental leave, healthcare for children, reasonably priced health care, etc.) you have no right -NONE- to sit in judgment of someone else who has chosen a path you would not.  There are LOADS of kids languishing in foster care.  Put your money where your vicious mouths are and get involved with those kids who are here and who have no consistent source of love and little advantages.

Is a heartbeat alone life? Maybe. But, it's not a human viable of living outside the womb at 6 weeks.  And, that life is second to the woman.  Period.  It it regrettable, yes. But, again, you folks are generally the ones who also object to free and ready access to health care b/c it offends your delicate sensitivities.  You're hypocrites.  You're sanctimonious.  You're judgmental.  You're disgusting.[/quote]

this doesn't make any sense.  It is like saying the lives of the poor are worthless.  If you are not middle class, then your life isn't worth living?  You can not believe this.  It is not better to not have lived at all than to have lived hungry and poor.[/quote]

And what you seem to be saying is that the lives of women are worth less than the lives of the embryos in their uterus and that the state gets to force them to be hostages to those embryos.[/quote]

[b]Your statement describing being hostage to an embryo is so very different from my perspective. I can see why we're miles apart on the abortion issue[/b].[/quote]

Congratulations on never having had a difficult pregnancy, or one that threatened your job, your education, or your financial future.  Not everyone can be so lucky.

I posted on the Republicans are mean thread that it seemed to me [b]conservatives lacked the ability to imagine the difficult situations others find themselves in and therefore can't empathize very well. [/b] This is a prime example.  I love my kids more than anything, tried for years to get pregnant and cherished each of my pregnancies. But I can imagine the terror someone could feel at facing an unwanted pregnancy or one that isn't going to bring a live, healthy child into the world and would never, ever deny that person the right to make her own decisions regarding her future.[/quote]

This.

"[Republican Ohio Representative Jim] Buchy is a longtime proponent of restricting women’s access to abortion — in 2012, he told Al Jazeera that his ultimate goal is to ban abortion completely in the State of Ohio. Then, the reporter asked him an interesting question: [b]“What do you think makes a woman want to have an abortion?”[/b]

He pauses. Then he says, “Well, there’s probably a lot of reas— I’m not a woman.” He laughs. “I’m thinking now if I’m a woman why would I want to get … Some of it has to do with economics. A lot of it has to do with economics.[b] I don’t know. It’s a question I’ve never even thought about.”[/b]

"It's a question I never even thought about...."

And that right there, ladies and gentlemen, is why we need to have more women (and more diversity in general) at every level of governance! [/quote]
