When should we stop “imposing” morals on people? I guess Vicki would rather live in anarchy. Why stop with abortion? Let’s make any murder legal, not just the murder of innocent children. After all, isn’t killing others part of the 10 Commandments? So aren’t laws designed to prevent theft and murder just imposing Christian morals on others? (can you hear my sarcasm?)
In reality, the laws that are set in this country are designed to protect individuals. Murder, stealing, child porn, abusing the elderly are all illegal because they cause harm to another person. Using this same rationale, abortion should be illegal. We are simply trying to protect a living being that can’t protect him/herself. Abortion is wrong and selfish.

Many people say that the US is the greatest country in the world because of the individual freedom. Yet a loud talking “moral” minority want to impose their values on everyone else. The US is not Iran, but in reality this moral minority would like it to be by legalizing their beliefs. Aborting of collection of cells with the potential of growing into a human being is a very private decision and no one should judge a woman’s decision to do so. Let them see a desperate woman struggling into a hospital emergency room with a wire coat hanger coming out of her vagina. And of course the rich will continue to go to Europe for an abortion and then a lovely touring vacation!

I find it disgusting to see parents who are usually poor who have produced 5,6,7+ children, But that is their right. I don’t take to the streets holding a sign and shouting insults.

I’m glad to see that some of us utilize those vital brain cell, separating us from the inbred homophobes… that BHO is sucure enough in his own masculinity, value system and orientation that he can support EQUAL (not “special” and the right wing-nuts say..) rights for gays and say so with confidence.
On abortion, lets go a bit further… OK, so nobody likes it. Though I do see the moral difference between a “morning after” type pill that prevents implantation or the fertilized egg, and a “DNX” precedure which is sadly legal, virtually dismembering a live baby without anesthesia prior to birth, all would agree that most abortions are performed for reasons of birth control. And the woman gets all the blame, and negative attention.. Come on guys, “man up!” Tens of millions of legal abortions since Roe v Wade in 1973.. someone does not care or is incredibly stupid.
I feel that abortions should remain legal, with increased restrictions on late term procedures (rape incest cases reviewed by 2 or 3 doctors, and a court appointed mediator). The woman should be required to view photos of fetal growth. Prolife demonstrators should have reasonable access to clinic entrances, without blocking patients. And, abortion providors should be labeled and exposed for who they are and what they specialize in, through media presentations etc. However, the providers should not be targeted for harm or threats of any kind. This is a legal procedure, and if people just open their minds a bit, maybe, there is a middle ground that will work to decrease abortion as birth control (97% in the USA)through education, outlaw it entirely for the sole purpose of harvesting stem cell/ and organ tissue in the 2nd and 3rd trimester. (yes, it happens). Making martyers out of abortion doctors does not reduces abortions, maybe “keeping it zipped” may be worth a try. Guys?

Women will ALWAYS have abortions…not on a baby…but a fetus. I know many women that have died or had terrible infections from either trying to do this themselves or by shoddy doctors.

In the 60’s, I had to go underground. This was a group of Priests and Rabbis that would send a girl to P.R. to a good doctor. I was fortunate, but many others were not as fortunate as I was. The doctor in P.R. would send a car to pick up the patient, call them to make sure they were okay..as did the Priests and Rabbis.

The government should NOT be able to control a woman’s body.
The last I looked, this wasn’t China.

You have got to be kidding me…..Ever heard of the Illinois Born-Alive Infants Protection Act? Well you might want do a little more research. Here is a link http://www.factcheck.org/elections-2008/obama_and_infanticide.html

And population control is what something that someone came up with in the 40’s…let me see what was his name…. Hitler. It is called Eugenics. Read up on that as well.

The population would not be out of control if people could just keep it in their pants.

No way, sister. Abortion kills a human life and there is no middle ground for that. Obama is the most pro-abortion president we have ever had as demonstrated by his voting record in the senate and now as a president. We have aborted over 50,000,000 babies since Roe vs Wade which is 1/6 of the population of the USA. We are experiencing the consequences of our lose of population due to abortions. This ecomonic crises is a natural reaction to the lack of people who would be buying homes, cars and other things.

Why on EARTH would anyone think that Obama is gay???? He’s a happily married father in love with his wife!

How can you say Obama is against abortion when he and his wife held a fundraiser for it? Do your research people! Serch on “Michelle Obama abortion fund raiser” it will even show you a copy of the invitation and how it so important to help support her husband on this issue.

He even says he wants to protect the doctors and give them rights to finish the abortion on children born live in botched abortions so they won’t get sued! Is sick!

now thats funny, obama gay? I am gay and trust me he IS NOT GAY. just because someone shows compassion for a discriminated group doesnt make him one of them. The ones I fear are the homophobics who are more likely supressing their gay side and seek to destract it by violent, condeming acts.

Equality does not mean equality.
