Sunday Blog Special 01/16/2005: Abortion On Demand? Are you Pro-Life or Pro-Choice?

I am fed up with the Abortion debate in America. Abortion is a rare sensitive issue that doesnt even belong dividing our country apart. Republicans themselves have taken a complete stand against abortion, without clearly identifying the real meaning of contraception. Why is it that every time in America when someone needs to try to talk about the issue of moral complexity, when someone needs to give the real values that meant we should care for the poor, we should help the middle class. we should grow the economy the right way, that there is some kind of effort to undermine the real issues of the great country we call America by making sure that Abortion has to come into the play as an issue. I myself am Pro-choice, and i will admit that. I am prochoice because i believe it is a woman's obligation to do what the hell she damn well pleases with her body. Her body and her body alone must be left alone by the mean old federal government, state governments, or ANY government. Its like this, if you can tolerate the government getting a foot near you for any sake, You could probably use the word fibercate and let the government off of the hook. But no, Government's obligation is to stay the hell out of our homes, and DEFINITELY the hell off of our bodies. I dont think it to be very rational to see to it that Abortion goes out the door one day when it comes to dividing this nation. If a person would want to be a good sport about the Abortion issue, which by the way is a very rare and sensitive issue, you should actually keep a woman's choice all of the way and defend it to the day you die. But there should be somelimitations, like for instance in a pro-life stance you could make sure that Abortion is only able to be limited to the first trimester of pregnancy and half way into the second trimester of pregnancy, whereby by the third trimester of pregnancy you should make it limited to where a woman should give the baby up for Adoption. But you must not, use Abortion like this as a wedge issue to divide this country. This happens to be the United States of America. And you definitely, and this is where i find Republicans to be very insulting. You must not definitely, divide the country on social issues, particularily Abortion , when you cant win on economic issues like supporting the rights of the middle class against the wealthy priviledged elites. The truth is, Republicans need the abortion issue to unite their base. They will NEVER outlaw it. They wont, because if they did it would not be able to unite their base. But thetruth is, you cannot simply do somethinglike this when youcant win on economic issues like supporting the middle class. A fair Abortion platform would be to support both sides of the aisle on this issue by keeping Abortion legal, while restricting it only in the third trimester. Ah Ha! That is already been done with Roe Vs Wade. Thats why we need to protect Roe Vs Wade. More to come later on this from me.....
