Who's pro-abortion?

That's Kevin Woster's rhetorical question here at blogmore - "Is anybody really pro-abortion? Could anybody really be pro-abortion?"

Woster would have us believe no one is really pro-abortion. Wouldn't it be nice if that were true?

Of course the reverse is true - lots and lots of us are pro-abortion. That's why abortion is legally protected in every state in the union. That's why every attempt to ban the practice is fought at every turn. That's why HB 1215 was referred to the ballot. Because many, many people are pro-abortion.

Every voter who votes against Referred Law 6 is, by their actions, pro-abortion. They are acting to preserve the legal protections for abortion. How much more pro-abortion can you be?

Later in his post, Woster devolves to a discussion of "feelings". He writes: "I know people who truly are anti-abortion, who truly find it abhorrent, but say they can’t bring themselves to vote for this particular bill." By "are" we can only assume Woster means "feel like they are". Because someone who says they find abortion abhorrent but who votes to keep the act legal certainly is not, based on the objective measure of their actions, anti-abortion. They may "feel" like they are anti-abortion. But they are pro-abortion.

Who's pro-abortion? Everyone who votes "no" on Referred Law 6, they're all pro-abortion.

It's time to stop screwing around with dishonest euphemisms like "pro-choice" and acknowledge that people who act to keep abortion legal are, as a matter of fact, pro-abortion.
