Great photo, and I especially like the screenshot of the questionaire. Damn that's scary; no abortions for ANY reason? How extreme can you get? He sounds like Rick Santorum!
No abortion for any reason. Yeah, PB, let's have a debate about that. Wankers.
Fantastic post Alison.
I love your cartoon. You've captured it perfectly.
That questionnaire is seriously looney tunes hard right...very scary, do the "Prog Blog Mod Squad" (great name) really know what they're supporting when they don't condemn bloggers who are open to this kind of question. Really showing their true colours I guess.
It's so telling that W Kinsella is now on their Blog-roll. He loves him some Catholicism. See the post where he thought the Priest should punch a parishioner in the face because the parishioner was wearing non-WK approved clothing. Just what Jesus would do, he thought peoples clothing was oh so important. But what to expect from a lawyer still pretending to be a "punk"?
Hard not to notice that his "punk" band just released an album with only deep cleavage on the cover..but of course he supports feminism too(cough..cough)
I liked the carton!
I don'tknow where Woodshead is coming from, well sort of like a long time ago, so 16th centurary.
There are some things our Canadian society settled a long time ago. A woman's right to control her own body is one of those things.
Ugh. Why do people consistently word questions about abortion so poorly? Not only is the first question stupid but he got the answer wrong! The two sex cells or gametes that come together to form a fertilized egg are living before they do so. As are all the other cells that make up our bodies, and the bodies of all life on earth...The question is where does personhood begin. GAH!
Second question is also stupid, unborn children is oxymoronic, two terms that are in direct contradiction with each other. Children are by definition already born, and they certainly aren't fertilized eggs. Most of which don't make it to the implantation phase and therefore don't even trigger pregnancy. So it's basically a lost cause from the start. Don't ever start the conversation before implantation or it doesn't make any sense whatsoever. >_<!!!
Holly : Yeah. Classy of him, wasn't it?
Jen, Eaf, and Anons : I've linked to the questionnaire before but thought I should also post it for those who don't click links. It's sent out to candidates by Campaign Life Coalition as an anti-choicers voters guide.
NML said "The question is where does personhood begin."
Yes. I'm interested in how Woodie expects to have that answered "scientifically", as he puts it, by his proposed committee.
The questions actually posed in Woodworth's Motion 312 are as follows :
"(i) what medical evidence exists to demonstrate that a child is or is not a human being before the moment of complete birth,
(ii) is the preponderance of medical evidence consistent with the declaration in Subsection 223(1) that a child is only a human being at the moment of complete birth,
(iii) what are the legal impact and consequences of Subsection 223(1) on the fundamental human rights of a child before the moment of complete birth,
(iv) what are the options available to Parliament in the exercise of its legislative authority in accordance with the Constitution and decisions of the Supreme Court to affirm, amend, or replace Subsection 223(1)."
Wankworth's eyes have that glazed zealot vibe to them; I suspect the only "scientifically" info acceptable to his CONfrères on his committee will be presented by the Fetus Lobby School for "Intelligent Design".
I forget what year it was that some Eskimos quit leaving the baby girls, born, to die
And for all the "folks" who want to talk about the "late" abortions, they really should go or revisit the memorial pages and testimonies of deep appreciation for Dr. Tiller.
I have also left prog blogs. I have been considering doing so for a year or more.
The last straw was the acceptance of opening a debate on women's rights.
You can add me to the list of fleeing progressives, too:

I was wondering what that stench was, and where it was coming from. Wasn't dead mouse, it was dead WOMEN. This is up for debate? Feh.
