Just what is in their mind when they say "Abortion on demand"

[demtenjeep]

just what in their fucked up little minds do they mean?

[Brickbat]

1. They don't want the teenage slut getting an abortion to fit in her prom dress.

That about sums it up.

[Lex]

2. Abortion without criminal charges, or at least without a male's permission somehow

is abortion on demand. A woman deciding the issue.

[Swamp Rat]

3. I want 'abortions on demand'... in every Wal-Mart and strip mall.

Time to curb the human population.

[DJ13]

4. Vending machines?

[tammywammy]

5. bwah

:spray:

[Gman2]

6. I smell LUNTZ! Fucker

[la la]

9. that is EXACTLY what i thought

when i heard 'that' phrase....damn...

[thecrow]

7. It just sounds more vicious, as is their way.

Like there's a revolving door on abortion.
They forget that it is the law of the land,
and it is the most heartbreaking thing a
woman or her doctor would want to perform.

They forget that some of their constituents
are incestual or rapists. Maybe they support that...?
But having an abortion is not a light decision
for either the woman or the doctor.
Why do they hate women??

[left coaster]

8. They don't want a mere woman to decide what happens inside her own body.. nt

[saltpoint]

10. The 'mind' part is what's throwing me. So it's your contention that

Republicans have minds?

That's going to take a while to process.

[awoke_in_2003]

15. Sure they have minds...

they just don't have the primate mind we do.

[prolesunited]

11. I guess they imagine some woman

who carries her pregnancy wakes up one day in her seventh month, sick of feeling fat and miserable, goes to her doctor and says, "I demand an abortion now."

12. Makes as much sense as "colonoscopy on demand"

If you want a colonoscopy, you get one. And insurance usually pays for it. Some have restrictions, like only one in 3 or 5 years, but really, it's on demand.

[awoke_in_2003]

13. What I think they are saying is....

"uppity women ought to know their place- shut the fuck up and let us make your reproductive decisions for you"

[eShirl]

14. They mean they're scared of women having power over their own lives.

[Motown_Johnny]

16. Choice

they mean choice

[Skittles]

17. because, you know, that's what whores and sluts want

[treestar]

18. They mean the woman getting one because she wants one, without

permission of a board of some kind. To decide whether it will harm her health or if it was rape.

[bettyellen]

19. they want men to be able to stop them if they feel like it. incubation on demand.

[Donald Ian Rankin]

20. What I mean when I say it is exactly what it says on the tin.

I believe that, in the first trimester at least, abortion should be available on demand - the only hoop a woman should be required to jump through to obtain an abortion legally is asking for one from a qualified practitioner (and even not doing that should only be a crime for the person performing the medical procedure without medical qualifications, not for the woman obtaining an abortion.

I don't really understand the objection to the phrase, to be honest - it strikes me as entirely value-neutral.

[Fleshdancer]

21. It sounds like some odd new Time Warner service

:rofl:

[Bolo Boffin]

22. Consent to sex is not consent to have a baby.

This is one of their major malfunctions - they don't understand this.
