"March For Life" Gets Presidential Support

Bush Offers Words Of Encouragement For Anti-Abortion Protest On Anniversary Of Roe V. Wade

(AP)  President Bush on Tuesday voiced support for anti-abortion demonstrators attending this year's "March for Life" rally marking the anniversary of the Supreme Court's Roe v. Wade decision.

This year marks 35 years since the landmark ruling that a woman has a constitutional right to have an abortion.

"Thirty-five years ago today the United States Supreme Court declared and decided that under the law an unborn child is not considered a person, but we know many things about the unborn," said Mr. Bush, who hosted about 200 of the demonstrators in the East Room for coffee and doughnuts.

In remarks being broadcast to other demonstrators later in the day, Mr. Bush said that biology confirms that from the start, each unborn child is a separate individual with his or her own genetic code.

"Babies can now survive outside the mother's womb at younger and younger ages," he said. "And the fingers and toes and beating hearts that we can see on an unborn child's ultrasound come with something that we cannot see: a soul."

Despite chilly weather, tens of thousands of people were marching from the mall to the Supreme Court. The National Organization for Women was staging a counter protest.

"Women have been killing their babies since the first stages of evolution"? Whether or not there is truth in that statement, truth is not some democracy decided by numbers. In other words, just because a lot of people do something or think the doing of something is good and fine, does not mean that it is.
My point from my earlier post has been ignored. The abortion debate should NOT revolve around a "woman''s right", but around what it is that is aborted. If it is a human being, as pro-lifer''s insist, then abortion is murder. Murder is the killing of an innocent human being. Murder is wrong. Abortion, thus, logically, would be wrong.
However, if the fetus could be demonstrated as NOT being a human being, then abortion is not murder, as that which is aborted is not human.
People who refuse to meet the debate here, where it matters, are *** addicts, who think they''re going to whither up and die if they don''t have as much *** as possible, with as many people as possible. For pro-choicers, this is what it almost always ultimately boils down to: I wanna have *** without any consequences, dammit!

Cabrezi,
It is only society''s business once the woman has carried her child to term. If it wasn''t then a fetus would be given a social security number and fingerprinted the day of conception. Har har.
How many times do I have to tell you? It is NO ONE''s business what a woman does with her fetus. And what penalties would you propose if ever Roe Vs. Wade is overturned (which will never happen) when women keep having abortions? Put them in jail, make them a burden on an already overcrowded judicial system? How long would you keep them in jail? Nine months?
It is NOT society''s business, and it is none of YOUR business, Cabrezi. You are not the guardian of the unborn, but I AM the guardian of all those who would have their rights stripped by a bunch of mindless, brainwashed turds. How''s that for a new insult, Cabrezi? Stay out of our bedrooms, keep your religion out of our schools and in your fantasy land churches, just STAY OUT!
Women have been killing their babies since the first stages of evolution. JUST DEAL WITH IT!

I can see why you might be content with that tiresome overuse of the same old insults day after day... no desire to ever expand that closed mind of yours. Yawn.

If a woman murders her child at any point in his/her development, it IS society''s business. Society also "forces" you not to kill your children after birth. No human being should have the right to murder another human being. I guess that''s where we differ. Have a nice day.

I don''t go to chuch as they lie. This is a witch hunt..IThey want babies to grow up go fight in wars for what..OIL..CONTROL OUR WILL ON OTHER NATIONS..

[michellem99-2009]

While yer on yer knees playing for me
Thank ye for yer time that one person cares.
As ye pray the LORD''S PRAYER
Think of the words and why Jesus prayed them
This is my prayer
Our Father who is in Heaven
Praised be yer Nane
Yer Kingdom in Heaven
yer will be respected but not forced
Give us this day our daily needs
Forgive us as ye ask us to forgive
Teach us yer love and not greed
As we walk help us see the world
As a people with needs
As a Parent try to see the human side
Understand we all suffer
See the good and not judge.
I could say more but ye know each heart.
Ye see the hell of a world.
Remember too the cross we eash bear.
Understand this is a cold world.
They nailed yer Son on the cross
We still have not learnt His goodness.
Our Leaders more blind than I
We have sep church and state in America.
We are free to come to ye
Thank ye for yer ear
Amen
Peace of Christ be with ye,

Life
By Barbara Ann
life is living growing changing,
Children can''t understand why.
They ask why and we can''t answer their whys.
I asked my share of whys..
We are animals.
We think and do.
But just cause we can breed
Should we.
Yes and no.
Let just mind our business.
Stay out their bedrooms
As adults
We all have our cross to bear.
Do ye want to carry mine.
No ye could not.
Life is here today
Life is gone tomorrow.
As I sit here pondering life.
What does it mean.
Homelessness
street gangs
wars
greed
Lack of kindness
Manners
In short a cold world.
A people too blind to see the truth.
Wake up.
Face the real world.
Some unborns are not meant to live
in an awful world.
They belong with the angels.

Cabrezi,
I couldn''t care LESS how many abortions have been performed. It could be A TRILLION MILLION for all I care. What I''ve been saying is that no one has the RIGHT to make a woman have her child if she doesn''t want it. She is the ONE that will have to give birth, take care of it, etc. etc. You sure as hell won''t. It''s her body; she can do with it as she pleases. You seem to keep missing that point because you are stupid. Of COURSE she''s murdering her fetus, but what business is that of YOURS? And great insight about a woman not being able to "abort her own body." Just brilliant. If you are the best the pro lifers can throw at us Roe vs. Wade will stand for eternity.

p.s. I don''t need an insult Thesaurus. Calling you a FASCIST MORON is enough.

[fettkonserv]

Odd that President Death Star is Pro Life.

[nikkicatt1]

If ya''ll are sooo concerned with unwanted babies, how many of ya''ll have actually adopted one? It is mostly MEN that tell us what we can and can''t do with our bodies. If man rapes a woman and she has the child, he is ENTITLED to help raise the kid. I see this as a control issue, not the rights of children. How many more babies are we going to find in coolers washed up on shore or buried under a house before we start prosecuting MEN for unwanted pregnancies. Someone posted that women should be responsible. All of the world''s problems come from men NOT BEING RESPONSIBLE.How can Bush justify being anti-abortion, but, will send thousands of troops to their death because his oil fields need protecting?

[cabrezi]

gallian1

I''m sure you don''t care how many abortions are performed now that you''ve been informed that there have indeed been over 45 million legal abortions in the US since 1973 despite your erroneous opinion otherwise.

As far as the woman aborting her own body... Well, she doesn''t abort herself, does she? She aborts the body of her child.

My, my, gallian1. The only point you repeatedly make is that nobody should disagree with what the almighty you has to say. There may be some who pander to their God, but you only pander to yourself. The omniscient gallian1 has spoken.

P.S.
Perhaps you should get an insult Thesaurus.

Women/girls also have to deal with "Jesus freak" pharmacists who won''t give them the "morning after" pill because Jesus/God/the Virgin Mary/angel Gabriel/ The Pope wouldn''t like it.

But that pill is exactly what they need. It makes sense. Give women the opportunity to take a pill within 24 hours of unprotected ***. Don''t sit there like the almighty judge of everyone in the world & say, "No. I''d rather you had an unwanted pregnancy & carried it to term. It''s what I want that counts not you. My religious beliefs are more important than your rights. Being Catholic/Evangelist gives me the power to tell you what to do."

You''re not going to tell me that what happens within 24 hours of unprotected *** is a "human being."

[keithle1]

Catholic Church has a lot to answer for. Is your priest, nun or the Pope going to babysit for you? Don''t we have enough unwanted children or do we need more?

Sterilize women when they visit their gynecologist. He can always say "oops" if they call him to complain.

[cocamojoe82]

The whole "controversy" about abortion should not revolve around whether or not a woman has a right to do with her body what she pleases, but, whether or not that which is aborted is human or not. If it is, indeed, a human being, as pro-lifers insist, then there can never be any justification for abortion. Because, if it is a human being, then abortion is, in fact, murder: taking the life of an innocent human being. It is never right to do wrong.
On the other hand, if that which is aborted is NOT a human being, then it doesn''t matter whether one has abortions or not, as it wouldn''t be murder. It''d be along the lines of liposuction or amputation.

[michellem99-2009]

Ny list The chuches women they must bear children
The church said no to birth control
The church said no to sexx education
Men demand a baby of the woman.
Shw carries it and he may walk after it is born
The woman is tossed in the street if she does not get an abortion.
He will say that is not mine
This one we can''t afford it..
It was never meant as birth control.
For health reasons.
LATE TERM SHOULD BE BANNED IF IT CAN LIVE OUTSIDE THE BODY.Take in account the mum to be health issues..

[michellem99-2009]

I don''t need to go to some site that panders to yer views.. I have shared my life as a foster child with ye all that read my posts. Why bring children IN TO THE WORLD ye can''t properly care for. The church is to blame..Yes ye read right..They won''t allow birth control..sexx education..They are crazy over a new baby and they make a fuss over. While they are cute..Babies are DEMANDING 24/7. I am in my 50s..Abortion is not used as birth control. Drs need to help women who ask to be fixed be fixed so they can''t breed. Mum wanted grandbabies so bad..I told her I will not give ye what yer want..The same woman that put me on the town years ago. Lets take care of the ones now here..Every day a child is abused..a borned child...we all have to live with ourdelves good or bad..

[Krazcarl]

Gallien1...EXCELLENT POINT I agree....on your latest post.

[gallian1]

Cabrezi
"no factual basis for my opinion"???
And WHO CARES if 45 million abortions were performed? WHAT IS IT TO YOU??? No one has any right to tell a woman what she can or cannot do with her body! You are a FASCIST if you think you can! Look up the word in the dictionary! I''m tired of you idiots thinking you can dictate to people how and when they can procreate. It is none of your BUSINESS if a woman wants to terminate her pregnancy! That''s between her and HER GOD not her and YOUR GOD! Get a LIFE and stop worrying about SOMEONE ELSE''S, YOU MORON!

[cabrezi]

Really? Seems more like you have no factual basis for your opinion, so you think of an unflattering name.

Case in point, a poster gives you abortions stats, with which you disagree through name-calling. Your ignorance is showing.(You can always check the AGI website as well. It''s a pro-abortion choice organization. Their research shows there were OVER 45 million legal abortions between 1973 and 2005.)

I just call them as I see them, cabrezi. You can do that when you have such massive intellect.

[cabrezi]

gallian1

Wow. Your powers of persuasion are unmatched. Who can argue with such intellect and insight? Way to prove you point through name calling.
