Nonsequiteuse commented on the blog post New Planned Parenthood campaign “Not in Her Shoes” seeks to go beyond ‘pro-life’ and ‘pro-choice’ labels [Video] 4 months ago · View
I definitely think there are problems with the term ‘pro-choice,’ and have read some good critiques of it. I also think this video pretty much gets it right, even though I don’t know why we always have to say that a woman should have to consult her faith about the decision to have an abortion. [...]

This is hardly scientific analysis, but I read this post after looking at a map on another site of the states that went for Obama or McCain in 2008, so I got curious & broke out my colored pens and a blank map. There’s only one state that went for Obama in 2008 that also [...]

I laughed out loud when I saw this news come across my Twitter feed. Things have gotten so ridiculous that my first thought was whether we should ask all of the knitters who’ve been crafting uteruses for all of the anti-woman legislators should switch to caterpillars for the RNC. I’ve never been able to knit, [...]

So, can we infer from her comments about not wanting the government to make that decision for us that she is pro-choice? If we start to talk about her as South Carolina’s pro-choice Republican governor, how quickly will she back-track?
These Republicans have no shame.

After taking (and tolerating – and loving) oral contraceptives for over 20 years, I had some medical issues that made my doctor recommend going off the pill.

Just went to Project Vote Smart & was dismayed to find that the anti-choice candidate for the US House in my district called himself ”pro-choice” on their survey, even though he: favors an amendment to the US Constitution that would confer full personhood on a fetus from the moment of conception or an act of Congress to accomplish the same, thinks abortion should only be legal in the 1st trimester, and doesn’t support federal funding.
EEK! The incumbent is ACTUALLY pro-choice, and always stands up for women’s health & women’s rights. Hate to see a website allow candidates to publish misleading information.
