Well, talk to the big boss on FR then 'cause he's been know to curb free speech every now and then. Your reaching for a point. If you don't think so, try testing the waters with a post you think will get bumbed off of here.
Now, do you want to have a serious discussion or are you going to play like a liberal and keep changing the subject?
The people like Debby 'dubious journo' will never comprehend that every living human individual began their life in their body at conception, then a woman's body gave life support while that individual body underwent the earliest living functions, functions which continue along a progressive trail of individual life with hallmarks such as puberty, etc. Individual human life begins at conception ... for my brainy friend, supercat ... even if a second or even third individual human life branches off of the initial human life begun at conception; does that mean even a zygote can 'beget'? Hmmm ...!
Bump!
"Where she sees "a bloody image meant to shock" you and I see a tiny baby struggling to hold on to its life - a life that the writer denies exists, and the writer wants to deny legal protection."
What you said.
From my about once weekly listen to the Limbaugh show, including "open mike Fridays," I'd say that, like most talk radio hosts, he goes begging for liberal callers who can hold their own. At Philly's WPHT talk station, the hosts consistently take extra trouble to ask for listeners who will, for example, take the liberal side of the "Mumia" issue or the public schools issue. Invariably, when they get a taker, it will be some hotheaded liberal racist claiming vast right wing conspiracies by the "white establishment."
Thank you for the ping to this article. Upon reading the orginal column, I understand that there would be a lot of venting about the criticism of Bush, and, of course, the ensuing comments about abortion. However, this is a lib columnsit, writing for a VERY liberal paper, and there is not one comment that could persuade her to a pro life position. I believe on this topic, the following quote is applicable:
"It is as useless to argue with those who have renounced the use and authority of reason as to administer medication to the dead."--Thomas Jefferson
"DEBBY MORSE, BRING ME A BEER!!"
And now, a favorite quote from one of my favorite paleo-feminists:
When we consider that women are treated as property, it is degrading to women that we should treat our children as property to be disposed of as we see fit.
Elizabeth Cady Stanton
Precisely. The same Caleb (my OT hero) who in battle claimed his inheritance at the age of 85 because "he wholly followed the Lord God of Israel." There's a guy worth emulating.
Elizabeth Cady StantonFrom http://www.americaslibrary.gov/pages/aa_stanton_friends_1.html:Mrs. Stanton sounds like good people to me.
LOL! They worked together sort of like a certain modern day duo.
Susan B. Anthony and Elizabeth Cady Stanton at work
Elizabeth Cady Stanton and Susan B. AnthonyIn 1851, Stanton started working with Susan B. Anthony, a well-known abolitionist. The two women made a great team. Anthony managed the business affairs of the women's rights movement while Stanton did most of the writing. Together they edited and published a woman's newspaper, the Revolution, from 1868 to 1870. In 1869, Anthony and Stanton formed the National Woman Suffrage Association. They traveled all over the country and abroad, promoting woman's rights.
