The feminist film critics can exhale now. Someone has finally concocted their dream movie: an "abortion comedy." Because apparently nothing sounds funnier than an unplanned one-night stand and a courageous destruction of God's most beautiful and most innocent creation.
It's called "Obvious Child." Feminist lingo sells this monstrosity. Former "Saturday Night Live" cast member Jenny Slate plays Donna Stern, a standup comedian who "is forced to face the uncomfortable realities of independent womanhood for the first time." A "drunken hookup -- and epic lapse in prophylactic judgment -- turns out to be the beginning of a hilarious and totally unplanned journey of self-discovery and empowerment."
Rolling Stone magazine described one scene of allegedly hilarious "empowerment" between female characters. "You're going to kill it," Donna's best friend Nellie says before a standup comedy set the night before her abortion. "Tomorrow I am," Donna replies, and "the two unravel in sheepish giggles."
If America laughs at this, America is beyond redemption.
The New York Times hailed how the film doesn't veer from a righteous feminist path. Donna does not consult the man who impregnated her, even though she likes him, and she "never wavers on her course of action." The cameras accompany her into the Planned Parenthood clinic for the execution.
The filmmakers consulted with Planned Parenthood to make the film "accurate," at least to abortion-loving feminists. They filmed at their abortion mill in New Rochelle, New York.
The director, Gillian Robespierre, announced with pride, "We knew the conflict wasn't going to be 'Will she or won't she?' I've already seen the movie where somebody's torturing themselves over the decision." A moral dilemma? A stay of execution? "That's the formula we were fighting against. We're just so brainwashed to believe that's what a happy ending is."
Feminists have been grumpy for years about movies like "Juno" and "Knocked Up" sending a pro-life message. Slate, the film's star, argued: "a woman who is not ready to have a baby making it work is not a happy ending to me. It's a personal nightmare." She added, "I've had women say to me: 'Thank you. I was feeling guilty for not feeling guilty.'"
In politics, abortion advocates love to fight about the rare exceptions: the rape, the incest, the late diagnosis of Down syndrome or disabilities. But this movie displays the much more typical abortion. It's a clumsy episode of casual sex between strangers, followed by a violent vacuum pump "cleanup" at Planned Parenthood.
The abortion, in fact, is pitched as a moment of maturity, authenticity, bravery and resolve. "Donna finds out along the way what it means to be as brave in life as she is on stage," the publicity materials claim. There's not really a death so much, just a moment of personal growth.
Of course, to sell the movie, they oddly claim this abortion-advocating movie doesn't have an agenda. "Our film is not an agenda movie in any way," Slate told Rolling Stone. "The whole point is that women have this procedure, and they should have it safely, and it's a part of life. It doesn't have to be this giant obelisk sticking out." That is not an agenda, no siree.
A little murder is a part of life. A little life matters not at all.
Feminists like these movie-makers don't see a moral dilemma. They see abortion as a natural part of the daily grind. You wake up, you get an abortion, you have a cheeseburger. The critics call this a "refreshing matter-of-factness" about abortion.
It can also be described as feminist nihilism. The selfishness and autonomy of the woman is paramount, and the accidental baby is just cannon fodder. When the murder of the innocents is celebrated as comedy, civil society is destroyed.
**A little murder is a part of life. A little life matters not at all.**
So, even if God creates the life, a little murder doesn’t matter? Insane!
The thing is our nation will pay for it in some way.
I love nature, too. I don’t kill anything...not even a spider, but I do eat meat, and I recognize that some animals have to be killed...for humane reasons. For the good of the species. For mankind’s benefit. My wish would be for all animals to be treated humanely, but you are so right about their twisted views. They don’t just put animals on par with people, they put them above.
I have found myself begging God for forgiveness many an evening before bed as I have grown to harbor a seething hatred in my soul for these same people who are the antithesis of all that is good and righteous.
I am right there with you, FRiend...
Before I get flamed here! I know that flies in the face of pro-life! But I am just sick of these lying, backstabbing, moronic, sniveling, weak kneed, perverted, attention seeking, effeminate, depraved scum sucking lunatics and their deceitful leaders!
RANT ON....
America will laugh at least the half of America that is communist.
How often have we seen here on FR, SNL and Jon Stewart, video's that folks think are funny, because on rare occasions they mock their fellow communists.
America will laugh because they are programmed to laugh, funny has little to do with it, the vast majority who watch and laugh at this, really have no idea what they are laughing at.
The half that does not laugh at this, will still seek out excerpts presented here or somewhere else, and will do so, with expected outrage, but they will still watch it, does one really need to see it in full 1080p living color to be outraged, it seems many are programmed that way.
Programing is everything and Communists could care less who sees it, whether it causes agreement or outrage, as long as it is seen.
RANT OFF...
Cynicism it seems lately; gets the best of me, probably just me getting increasingly pessimistic, I am more often than not, thinking we are doomed.
I'm there with you - thanks for putting it in words.
Yeah, too bad Ashley is one of the better looking Lib psychos. But has evil in her heart and that is what counts.
As ironic as this may sound, it offers some measure of comfort knowing that others share in this sentiment, however difficult it is to bear.
Barack the poser is trying to demoralized us. We have to keep going, even if it's tough. I had to quit listening to my beloved Rush. I was afraid my blood pressure would explode. Now I can't listen because I am at work. My husband fills me in.
Is a comment from me necessary?
They missed a comedy coup here!!!!
Nellie: You're going to kill it.
Nellie: You're going to kill it.
Donna: Tomorrow I am.
(they both unravel in sheepish giggles)
Nellie: Well, KILL IT WITH FIRE.
Donna: Do you think a flamethrower nozzle will fit up there?
Nellie: Why not! Everything else seems to!
Donna: (frowns and hits Nellie playfully on the shoulder) Maybe I should nuke the site from orbit. It's the only way to be sure.
Nellie: Are you going to eat the fetus?
Donna: Only the brains. The rest, I will smear all over my body.
(they both dissolve into more giggles)
Nellie: You can use the blood to paint your face up like an indian warrior!
Donna: How! Me want-um scalp of dead fetus!
Well, Jerry Lewis made a “comedy” about the Holocaust.
The Day the Clown Cried was made, but never has been officially released.
Yes, correct.
Ya, a nine month old killed some people apparently, some muslim hellhole I think it was.
Obviously not true.
I can’t believe this kind of thing is being made into a movie, that’s absolutely crazy. I can’t even begin to imagine what God thinks about all this.
if you see a brown recluse, I hope you kill it. Those bites can be open wounds for months and months and never heal, can require skin grafting or just outright kill. It’s a nasty way to go.
I don’t kill stuff either, and I do eat meat. I do shoot coyotes, wolves, and gophers though, whenever I get the chance.
Most movies from Hollywood are abortions.

Not a comedy, but does anybody remember a book/movie called The Cider House Rules?
Yeah, hard to know which is more hell-bent: abortion as comedy or abortion as compassion. Funny as septicemia and compassionate as a ball of bloodclots.
