Laying in bed yesterday, I got stuck watching The View, that painful show where a bunch of annoying women (not least of all Whoopi Goldberg) yell over each other for an hour.
They got talking about abortion, and started spouting the usual 'no one has the right to tell a woman what to do with her body' kind of stuff.
Then Whoopi got on her high horse and said something along the lines of 'some people aren't ready to become a parent, and if they have the child they might abuse it in some way, so it's better to abort in those circumstances'. Everyone clapped at this marvelous wisdom.
Think how ridiculous that logic is. Spare the kid the pain, by killing it. The kid might be treated badly, so we should murder it before that happens. Um..
I might get a paper cut, which would hurt. So I should hack my hand off now with a saw, to spare myself the pain. Good thinking.

the golden moment was when Whoopi said, "Just so you know, I'm pro-life. But I'm also pro-choice."
huh???
Yeah! And she said it like it was such a trump card. really, it was just a complete contradiction!
