That's true of </i>everyone's<i>car</i>. It's as though the don't think that pro-choicers know that yes, everyone was at one point a fetus. That's not what's up for debate. The sticker would work better if it said "<i>fetus</i> on board"--of course, then he'd have to drive around with a pesky pregnant woman all the time for it to be accurate. <br />Yeah, the antis' stickers aren't really very intelligent.UneFemmePlusCourageusehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10162627227823701520noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6387757235421993128.post-65410376436250500882010-12-17T08:02:39.958-05:002010-12-17T08:02:39.958-05:00Kristen, no worries, we just had a lag in moderati...Kristen, no worries, we just had a lag in moderating today, as we sometimes do :)placenta sandwichhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14729355361057625131noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6387757235421993128.post-69138757099832959012010-12-17T07:40:51.148-05:002010-12-17T07:40:51.148-05:00Hi There,

Yikes! <br /><br />Anyway, I understand if you therefore choose to ignore that post. <br /><br />I fully support all the work you do and wish I was as brave as you! Thank you for all you do:)<br />Cheers, KristenKristenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01679796426597205288noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6387757235421993128.post-75809442269677173222010-12-16T19:39:53.219-05:002010-12-16T19:39:53.219-05:00haha the tree one is my favorite!

While she now suspects that for some, the slogans are a substitute for action, a sceptic might wonder if, having served her for so many years, they are a marketing device. The "CHOOSE LIFE" slogan, which in the context of the day was directed at drug abuse and suicide, has since been misappropriated by the pro-life movement, even appearing on license plates in Florida and Alabama.l.v.https://www.blogger.com/profile/10536768688723247889noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6387757235421993128.post-48806184818341591342010-12-16T13:14:51.168-05:002010-12-16T13:14:51.168-05:00I also like "what if [famous person] had been...I also like "what if [famous person] had been aborted?"

I...Thanks, I really needed the laugh this morning.<br /><br />I'm inspired to keep a pack of post-it notes and a sharpie with me from now on, if I see one of the stickers in a parking lot I'll leave them a nice little note. Mind if I quote you?<br /><br />Also, can you think of one for the "Pope Benedict says: Defend Life" sticker? I'm seeing that one everywhere lately.Shttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03818573358986858228noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6387757235421993128.post-72251546913363653502010-12-16T09:13:30.348-05:002010-12-16T09:13:30.348-05:00Lol at the Wham! reference.

It's only 9 months of her life." I was so naive but underneath that was the misogyny of "she made her bed let her lie in it." So even the "feel good" sayings have that underlying "you deserve to have to stay pregnant." <br /><br />I'm glad that I grew up and realized the world is not black and white as so many want people to believe.Kristenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01679796426597205288noreply@blogger.com
