- Oh, crap. It's an anti-abortion organization. Period.
-

-
- What a stupid statement. Why not START with the "elderly, poor, sick and
- disabled"? Is that too logical?
-
- I despise liars like you, and organizations too chickenshit to state their
- real purpose.
-
- >PWN members believe that abortion and abortifacient contraceptives

-
- "Violent". Birth control pills, violent. Sure thing, Graham. What're
- these "real needs"? Forced birth for all pregnant women? Don't be
- a*fraid*. Spell it out.
-
- It seems PWN members should consider organizational-wide therapy before
- their crazed ideology results in forced commitment.

-
- There's women that destroy their own CHILDREN? Seems you oughta get on
- that before you try enslaving women via anti-abortionism.
-
- Are you...all *there*, Ron? Ron?? <knock, knock> Hel-LO!!!
-

-
- Hmm...I thought you said "realities". You wouldn't be telling only ONE
- SIDE, wouldja, Graham?
-
- >We are committed to working for a
- >society that supports women and women's valuable contributions in both
- >the workplace and the home, a society that respects all human life.
-
- When religious anti-abortionist creeps start worrying about more than
- controlling the sexual lives of America, such as caring about the poor,
- starving and oppressed in the world, then maybe you'll sound like more than
- a goofy fanatic.
-
- Until then - I am getting a kick out of the way you dance the Fundie
- Two-Step in a dishonest attempt to obfuscate the pure anti-abortionism of
- these..."organizations".
