[quote]The president of an anti-abortion legal advocacy group told a House committee this week that abortion care for a 10-year-old girl would not be considered an abortion.[/quote][/quote]
If this doesn't prove that forced birthers are about punishing women for having sex, I don't know what is.

Forced birthers are stuck, now. Theyve been saying no abortions because the fetus and embryo are people with equal rights to life.

But they know they can’t deny a raped 10 year old an abortion. That is politically unpalatable.

So they have to say if the pregnancy will affect the health of the mother, ending it isn’t an abortion. It is justified, therefore it is not an abortion. Because abortions are only when you end a pregnancy for no good reason.

This line of reasoning will not, however, get them where they think it will get them… but they aren’t smart enough to see the flaws in this argument.

Like most conservatives, they are crap on the details of governing, and legislation.[/quote]

If Republicans truly believe that life begins at the instant of conception, how can they also argue that a child conceived via rape is worth less than a child conceived via consensual sex (which they are now doing apparently)?[/quote]

They don’t feel limited by facts or reason.

They will make up whatever random laws they want to penalize whom ever they want. Just because they feel like it. No rational arguments. No informed opinions.

Ignorant, irrational tyranny.

True, but logically Republicans have now been forced to concede that either:

1. Life *doesn’t* actually begin at the instant of conception.

Or…

2. 10-year olds should be required to carry their rapist’s child to term.

So which is it?

I think sensible pro-choice folks took notice of these vexing issues a long time ago and voted to keep abortion legal for situations like this.  Republicans, on the other hand, wanted to force a very narrow morality on all of us and are now back-pedaling furiously from the consequences.[/quote]
