Pro-choice, pro-life, or pro-hypocrite?
Published on March 3, 2005 By messybuu In Politics

My biggest pet peeve is pandering. Pandering is such a slimy tactic, which explains why politicians do it all the time! John “War Criminal” Kerry even made it a cornerstone of his presidential campaign during the 2004 election!

What is pandering? Pandering, of course, is defined in the dictionary.com as “arranging for sexual partners for others.” It’s a very disgusting act, and only the most pernicious dare condone such an activity. That is why it pisses me off when both pro-choicers and pro-lifers pander.

Pro-lifers are usually pro-life because they believe abortion is murder. Some of these pro-lifers believe that even though abortion is murder, it should be allowed in cases of rape and incest?

What the fuck? Why is it all right in those situations? A child conceived out of rape or incest is as much of a child as one conceived out of non-rape and non-incest. It’s still murder, even if the woman was raped by her own father. The child didn’t rape his mother, so he shouldn’t suffer the death penalty for his father’s crime! Sure, pro-choicers will think pro-lifers who hold such a view are heartless, but those who pander to others by justifying murder when convenient are condoning mass murder.

“Those pro-lifers sure are hypocrites! It’s a good thing I’m a pro-choicer, because we don’t pander at all!” WRONG! Pro-choicers want women to have the right to have abortions, but so as to not sound as though they support abortions, some of them say stupid shit like “abortion should not be used as birth control” or “the abortion rate rising is a bad thing.”

What the fuck? What’s wrong with using abortion as birth control? It hurts nobody! And what’s wrong with a rising abortion rate? If I was pro-choice, I would applaud an increase in abortions! That’d mean that women are becoming more responsible and not bringing unwanted children into the world! Everybody’s a winner! Sure, the woman might suffer some damage with each abortion she has, but that’s her fucking choice. Excessive masturbation is unhealthy too, but I don’t see people who support the right to masturbate making a big deal out of an increase in masturbation or masturbation done frequently and casually. Why don’t they? Because, masturbation, like abortion, affects nobody except the doer!

If abortion is murder, then it’s always murder, even if the woman was raped by her own father. If abortion isn’t murder, then it’s nobody’s business if women use abortion as birth control or even if they abort fetuses with the “gay gene” en masse. Except in cases when the mother’s life is at stake, the abortion issue is not complex. People want to make it more complicated than it is though because they want to kiss everybody’s ass like the pandering hypocrites they are.

I wish people would just make up their minds on if it was child killing or not, and why if it's child killing, it's all right in some occasions, and why if it isn't, why it's wrong in some occasions.


I don't know. I kind of like the hypocrisy. It seems so much more... human than making sense all the time and being logical. We're not robots, and hypocrisy is practically our ground-state. I'd be a little disappointed if it was possible for people to make a definitive decision and then stick to it (and yes, that's probably a tautology. I don't care though).

Those of us who beleive that life begins at conception, have never wavered. Others use situational ethics to defend their waffling. John Kerry is a perfect example. I have no respect for him on this issue, but can respect those who disagree with me on when life begins and support abortion. They are honest and honorabla in their belief, even if we disagree.

Also extremely pessimistic. I would hope that we can transcend it, and I think some do. But as a rule, I would have to agree with you, and that is a shame.

Yeah, some of us transcend it and they become saints or villains. It's a damn shame that all humans can't (won't?) do it, but a world where everyone sticks to their world would be frightening in my eyes. Sure you'd have a lot of good people, but there'd be a lot of really, really despicable bastards as well, who'd probably be able to run rings around the saints. I'd rather just have a sort of neutral mass and a few transcendants around.

It's not about being a robot. It's about sticking to one's word, and one doesn't have to be a saint or a villain to stick to one's word. It's just about not saying things and then doing the complete opposite. If hypocrisy is a good thing, then nobody should ever complain about the hypocrisy and double standards of anybody else, including the people that approved of segregation and whatnot while saying "Everybody deserves the same rights" and "all men are created equal."

That's why I respect them. Sticking to one's word isn't impossible. It's just that others aren't serious enough about their own beliefs to truly embrace them.

What's wrong with abortion?? Isn't that like asking what's wrong with not breathing??? I use to be against abortion unless it was a rape victim or incest. Now, I think it should be reserved only for incest because of the jeans problem associated with it. In the last 5 years I have become friends with a couple of people, that by anyones standards, are common people. One is a doctor and the other is a computer programmer. Both have made their mark in their field and both are highly respected. What makes them different? They are the children of rape victims that decieded to have their babies rather than abort them. Obviously that is a very tramatic situation and hopefully the rpaists were caught and convicted. But what does it say for the victims?? As far as I am concerned, they are among the bravest people on this planet. Not too many people "forget" their rape experience but to decide to live with a daily reminder for the rest of their lives is just plain heroic!! Is it fair to say all rape victims should keep their babies? Of course not!!! It takes alot, alot more than 90% of the people in this world can bare. My point is, if someone that gets raped can live up the responsibility (which no one can ask them to do) then why can't people with normal circumstances do the same?? I am so tired of people talking about "choice". You know what, you have the "choice" to keep your pants on and you have the "choice" to make sure you are using a condom or that you and your mate are protected in some way shape or form. No, the responsibility isn't just on women, it's equal with men. Dude, no condom, keep your pants on. The tragedy of this situation si neither take responsibility and guess what? A baby is created. You know what, it's both of your faults, it's not the baby's. But for some reason the government says it's ok to terminate this life because you're stupid (once again, talking to the men as well as the women). I'm sorry but that is such bull! As the old saying goes, "don't play if you can't pay." But the one situation that ticks me off more than any other is the career woman that get's pregnant and get's an abortion because they don't want it getting in the way of their career. Sorry, that has got to be the stupidest thing I've ever heard in my life!! Millions of women have careers and kids, get over yourself.
