LTTE from a baby-murderin’ hoor

Chicken Girl — Sun, 07 Jun 2009 22:07:05 +0000

Oh, wait. Actually, not a baby-murderin’ hoor. A woman who had a late-term pregnancy with severe complications did what the pro-lifers want, carried to term, and as a result had to watch a baby who was doomed, probably from conception, starve to death rather than terminate the pregnancy and save both mother and baby months of suffering. Oops. It turns out women get late–term abortions for actual medical reasons. Imagine that!

Star Tribune: LTTEs for Friday June 5th

ABORTION DOCTOR SLAIN
A personal story may give a little perspective

Regarding the murder of Dr. George Tiller, the antiabortion zealots would like everyone to think late-term abortions are never performed for a good reason. (The woman’s life, health and wellbeing and severe fetal defects are not considered good reasons.)

Perhaps a real-life example will help everyone (at least the decent people) understand this issue.

When I was five-and-a-half months pregnant, I started filling up with huge amounts of fluid. The doctor said it indicated a severe fetal abnormality. Since I was a devout Catholic, abortion was not even considered.

I spent the next two and a half months in considerable physical and mental pain. At eight months, the doctor said there was no point in continuing the pregnancy and the suffering I was enduring, so he decided to induce labor. If the fetus was actually OK, the slightly premature birth would do no harm.

A cute red-haired baby girl, looking quite healthy, was born, although weighing only 4 pounds. An examination showed her esophagus was solid instead of hollow and her intestines were just a fibrous mass. She could not eat. It took her a few days to starve to death.

Late-term abortions are performed to prevent such needless tragedies.

HOORAY for people so utterly devoid of conscience that they think terminating ANY pregnancy is “murder”, even if it’s to save a little girl’s life!

HOORAY for people who stand on street corners making their children hold blown-up photoshop jobs of stillborn babies and yelling “murderer!” and “whore!” at any woman who passes by!

HOORAY for the people who have SO MUCH RESPECT for HUMAN LIFE that they’ll gun down a doctor (in a place of worship, no less), head right back to their abortion clinic picket lines, and not even blink an eye!

WOW, those pro-life assholes are just the BEST!
