Abortion
The latest poll has 51% of people classifying themselves as pro-life, and 44% classifying themselves as pro-choice.
I don't understand that statistic. 51% say they are "pro-life", yet according to the polling data:
o Only 30% would overrule Roe
o Only 23% think abortion should be illegal in all circumstances.
Those don't sound like "pro-life" is at 51% to me. Maybe it reflects those who consider themselves personally to be "pro-life" in that they personally wouldn't have an abortion, but they support a woman's right to choose, which is really not the pro-life position but a pro-choice position.
Now that Obama has "legalized" stem cell research Im certain that the rate of abortion will increase once research centre start paying women for aborted fetal tissue. Im sure in some of the upscale ghetto's of DC the women will line up.
And, I get tired of your inflammatory, judgemental rhetoric, Allie.
You're a self-righteous jerk. I'm tired of the fanatics controlling this discussion, as if they have a right to.
MOUNTAINMAN,
The anti-free choice, religious zealots play with statistics - "Statistics lie and liars use statistics"

Since you asked.
For the last 8 years the numbers have been different, in other words, the majority was on the pro-choice side.
All of the sudden those numbers changed, as soon as we got a pro-choice president, the pendulum swung.
Perhaps the staunchly pro-life stance of the previous administration scared people into thinking he might try and over turn Roe V Wade, thus people moved to the other side of the issue.
Now we a president that is staunchly pro-choice, and maybe people are just as scared of his extreme view of the matter and are reacting by moving to the other side of the issue again.
Does anyone ever think about how selfish it is to destroy something that someone else is working so hard to get. There is no shortage of people waiting for adoption.
Abortion is no different than when the government decided another group weren't really people and therefore couldn't vote, i.e. the blacks.
A baby is not a part of a woman's body and she has no jurisdiction over it.
Calling abortion opponents "jerks" is a sure way to demonstrate your open-mindedness, alright. You declare anyone who opposes abortion to be a "fanatic".
I guess this means anyone who supports abortion if a fair-minded, thoughtful person.
When it gets to 60, sell!
Good for the 51%. Hopefully that means less abortions this year, which hopefully means less pregnant single mothers.
Other than that - this poll is irrelevant. I wouldn't care if the number is at 98% - the 2% deserve the right to choose.

Unless they are Arabs in Palestine right?
So go out and adopt one.There is no shortage of people waiting for adoption.

I phrased that ambiguously by accident. Let me rephrase. There is no shortage of people waiting to adopt children.
My personal opinion on whether I want to adopt a child is not germane to this discussion.
