Moreover, being pro-choice is not the same as being pro-abortion.

It's not? The distinction escapes me. Where have you been the past 30 years? Pro-choice is nothing but a weasel-worded Orwellian obfuscation for pro-abort.

Think about all the things that you wouldn't do or encourage others to do yet you think should be legal. Does that make you pro-adultery, pro-alcohol, pro-cigarettes, pro-rap music, pro-voting for Democrats, etc.? Of course not, and conservatives' inability to recognize that distinction hurts their cause and just makes them look like idiotic zealots.

It was pro-choice but the anti abortion people like myself, choose to call it what it is PRO ABORTION. But the pro-abortion people don't like the word ABORTION, which is exactly what it is so THEY would rather call it pro choice. It's more politcally correct and it doesn't give away what the actual choice is about.

ABORTION a bad word even to abortionists.
