Back in the day, there were Democrats that were pro-life that we worked with. That’s not the case anymore. So, according to this woman, there's no more Democratic pro-lifers anymore. Hmmm...better tell those on my flist that are prolife and democrats that the new director of Wisconsin thinks that prolife democrats don't exist anymore. Luckily for those that are a prolife democrat, they don't live in Wisconsin (Two of them live in New York and another one lives in PA).
I don’t think we put the unborn child in front of it (the right to choose), but we do believe protecting life at all stages is the most important thing. Bullshit
We know right now abortions are legal. But how can we protect the women to get the safest services if she choices that option? Gee, I don't know...stop trying to restrict abortion would be a start. In fact, you all could actually start supporting things like birth control so the risk of a woman having an unwanted pregnancy would work wonders too.
That (abortion) is still an option, if that’s what women choose. There are still clinics open. Yes, they may have to travel farther. But at the end of the day if something goes wrong and the doctor doesn’t have admitting privileges anywhere close to where they are, the life of the mother is still at risk. It is all about the safety of the mom if that is the road she decides to choose. Translation of the first sentence: "It's still an option, but we're going to make it very hard to get that option." Translation of the last sentence: "The woman wouldn't have her life at risk if she didn't choose abortion". My personal translations of what this woman is saying aside...if a woman has a serious complication resulting from pregnancy (you know...since it's not a secret that pregnancy can get risky, which women know if they go on the path to want to carry to term) and she can't travel anywhere else that does the abortions because of the state she's in...how the fuck is that going to be safe for the woman?
For some people it’s a matter of you are killing a child. Alright, I don't mind if someone wants to personally view their own fetus as a child. They can call it a fun sized Snicker bar for all I care (which I actually did when I was pregnant). However, when you try to push your view that ending a pregnancy...whether it's for elective or therapeutical reasons, to that of killing a born kid on other people when it's not the same damn thing...I do mind.
