Yardbomb posted:

I still don't understand how these people care SO MUCH (So much) about fetuses, but are totally cool with just dumping children and babies into poverty and lives of extreme hardship, right after they pop out of that hole. New resident TPC person, I'd like for you to weigh in on this and explain it to me. My poor LIEberal brain just can't work out the mental gymnastics you people somehow manage on a daily basis.

Because Jesus loves babies and hates sinners. Once they are out of that hole, they have the taint of original sin on them and should be made to suffer (unless you are born into a rich, white family).

Tea Partiers are too dumb to use Google and expect everyone else to be just as dumb because they think they're actually the smart ones. Here, WhackAWonderful, look at how dumb you are:

http://www.plannedparenthood.org/health-topics/abortion/in-clinic-abortion-procedures-4359.asp

quote:

Before the abortion procedure, you will need to
  • discuss your options
  • talk about your medical history
  • have laboratory tests
  • have a physical exam — which may include an ultrasound
  • read and sign papers

Get yourself some basic information age skills and get back to us.

I am pretty sure that an ultrasound is required, although in the person I know's case, it was simply to ensure that there WAS something there before they went through with the procedure. I'm guessing the pill route doesn't require that.

Well, the pill only stops implantation to begin with. So if she was already pregnant it wouldn't have worked.

The real issue is states are requiring the ultrasound in all procedures and mandating that the woman has to look at it so she 'understands the consequences'.

As Planned Parenthood themselves state, it may be part of an exam. The exam is required, which makes sense in a medical procedure.

A ultrasound is required by Planned Parenthood prior to an abortion. Should the woman be farther along than she thought, the fee for the "service" will be higher. So it's invasive for one but not the other? Parallax Scroll..so you're telling me that 3000 babies aborted every day in this country are caused by rape? Wow, crime must be worse than I thought. And when she aborts, she's going to have worse than that put inside her. As for Nice Davis....you know some of my opinions, you don't know me. You don't know if I'm low income, a rape victim..you know nothing. Everyone on the Tea Part site is lumped into one group. I don't assume all liberal or progressive people hold the same traits and opinions. Why lump us all together? If I attempt to answer everyone here (you're all so friendly) I'm sure I'll be banned for double posting. So I'll leave you to your own devices..whatever they may be. :)

Sidestep to avoid confirming what someone correctly guessed, passive aggressiveness (smiley), scare quotes, a variant of 'liberals are the real racists (judging people whatever)', false equivalencies (a woman electing to have one for safety reasons v the government forcing one for no reason), trying to be absurd and instead being correct (Rape is pretty common we should do something about that!), [citation needed] on numbers and techniques, and leaving because you're afraid of the response. Reminds me of a lot arguments I've had with conservatives in my family.

I've been following the threads since day one but I can't bring myself to troll. I'm positive I'll run into family on there and see them posting Moochelle Obongo pictures and never be able to talk to them again.

S/he means RU-486 that induces abortion at very early stages. They don't have to 'go in', so to speak.

Actually there is a concept called the "age of accountability" or "age of innocence" among Christian and Jewish traditions that states that young children are not responsible for their sins until that age, which is usually around 13 or 20. This isn't explicitly stated in the Bible, though there are supporting passages for which the term is derived:

quote:

Deuteronomy 1:39 ESV
And as for your little ones, who you said would become a prey, and your children, who today have no knowledge of good or evil, they shall go in there. And to them I will give it, and they shall possess it.

James 4:17 ESV
So whoever knows the right thing to do and fails to do it, for him it is sin.

Matthew 19:14 ESV
But Jesus said, “Let the little children come to me and do not hinder them, for to such belongs the kingdom of heaven.”

Yeah I know! I'm just trying to get at the hypocrisy among these self-righteous far-right people who probably haven't read an actual Bible themselves in their entire lives, yet hold it up as a perfect idol (decried as a sin in the book itself) free from error that they claim to base their morality on.

I wonder if the guy doing nothing but posting (often contrarian) Bible verses in TPC has been banned yet? :allears:

That actually makes me kind of sad. I really appreciated your frank but almost...kind treatment of them. And the fact that a few people responded in kind gave me the tiniest bit of hope.

That said, I just started up a deep-cover account. Will report to Soros HQ when sufficiently embedded. :unsmigghh:
