There exists in this country, a perennially contentious debate over when the life of a person begins. Some believe that life begins at conception and generally put themselves in the "pro-life" camp that feels that once a woman has become pregnant the fetus has the right to life and that performing an abortion on this fetus would be tantamount to murder. Those on the opposite end of the spectrum usually call themselves "pro-choice" and believe that the fetus is simply part of the woman's body and that she has the right to terminate the pregnancy should it be in her best interest. Those on the pro-choice side of the debate understand and acknowledge that those on the pro-life side of the debate do believe that all life, even that of and unborn fetus, is very special and is to be protected. Those on the pro-life side of the debate seem to have less respect for the views of their opposition and often resort to calling pro-choice people "pro-abortionists"
Now you would probably agree with the majority of pro-choice people when they say that calling them "pro-abortion" is a gross misrepresentation of their views. You might even go so far as to say that no one is actually "pro-abortion". You would be wrong.
I am actually pro-abortion. I believe that the mothers of Dick Cheney, Nadya Suleman, Sean Hannity, and yes... Gallagher should all have been held down and had their bellies used like trampolines until their demon seeds ceased to exist. Some joke about "retroactive abortion" but this is no laughing matter. Serious action needs to be taken immediately to to ensure that not only are abortions kept legal but also painful and mandatory for those who may be carrying the next infamous war criminal, mass murderer, serial rapist, or conservative talk radio host. The retroactive abortion option needs to remain open for those who don't begin to show their tendencies toward being complete and utter assholes until their teens or even twenties. Like John Lennon said, "You show me a bloody coat hanger and I'll show you a perfect world"

Big words confuse me. They make me drink and fall asleep. Perhaps that's actually the beer. At any rate I like abortions. I think everyone should have at least one. I need to get back to Maury. Today's quote, "I had sex for a cheeseburger." I blame you and your big words for this nap. Thanks dick.
