Does it ease your pain to acknowledge that, by your definition, your mother is a slut? You know, since she has a vagina and all.

I realize that you are slow on the uptake, so I'm gonna be a bit basic here. There are only two options to a pregnancy: birth or abortion. The abortion can be either medical or spontaneous, but both are considered abortion. If your chemo woman is far enough along in pregnancy, doctors would probably opt for an early

This is the last time I converse with you.

Keep telling yourself that, I bet it helps you sleep at night to think that it never happens ever and Wendy Davis probably totally went on a CHILD MURDERING RAMPAGE RAWR for fun. :)

Nope. Not rare at all.

First of all, they're not exceedingly rare. Second, ectopic pregnancies are not the only reason to terminate a pregnancy to protect the health of the woman carrying a clump of non sentient cells in her body.

There's a Douche Canoe Conservatives Association, he's their secretary treasurer and comes up with the talking points.

My eyebrows crept, cartoon-style, higher and higher with every line of his shit that I read. Since I can't replicate that effect on-screen (and since my eyebrows are currently sitting at my hairline and I'd quite like them not to be), I'll provide my internal monologue:

Dumb Shit (Teribilius),

I live/work in Texas and this is exactly how my conservative co-workers are, so sadly you did a pretty good job. :(

Health reasons/rape are the only acceptable reasons for an abortion, but no one ever actually has those health reasons or gets raped/pregnant from rape so therefore there is no acceptable reason for abortion. See how that works?

And kill the child too. But I guess when your body is just a vessel for baby making you must go down with the ship.

To get another hole in the abortion punchcard, like we're at damn Jamba Juice. How else do you get the official Feminist Certificate?

I read that article because I literally didn't believe you! I was like, "No offense, but I'm sure he's implying that she lied about the circumstances of her abortion. He can't be acting like she pretended to have two abortions when she never had any, because that would be asinine and make no sense." But, sure enough:

Apparently the Republican School of Lady-Parts Science teaches that ectopic pregnancies are imaginary, just like pregnancies conceived through rape (at least the legitimate sort of rape). Luckily, the brilliant researchers at the Republican School of Lady-Parts Science have found that all pregnancies can be prevented

I know Wendy Davis SAID she had an abortion, but we're gonna need a man to verify that for us. Maybe two or three. Can we just get a couple of men to support this woman's stories about her own personal life? We just need a male perspective on this so we can really be sure it happened. Anyone?

It's even more disturbing to think that the National Review employs a douchenozzle who has the critical thinking skills and paranoia level of your average basement dweller on 4chan.

Only Mr. Siggins knows the truth about his alleged journalism credentials . We simply do not know the circumstances of Dustin Siggins's supposed credentials, education, or basic humanity.

This right here is why I really hate the mentality that I need to give a reason for or "excuse" my abortion. It's my business, and they can fuck off why. If you try to justify it all it does is give them grist for their mill. Just like anything else medical, "nunya business" is enough.
