Morality is relative...repeated for 40 years...has undermined the ethos of the nation.
If abortion is acceptable because it eliminates an unwanted parasite perhaps it should be made retroactive. You know, to eliminate those in our society who are a needless burden on their families. If we can justify one we can justify the other. Think of all the money needlessly wasted paying the medical costs of brain-dead people on life-support. Or think of those healthy adults who have never held a job who sponge up government checks each month. Aren't they, by definition, parasites, living off the "host" of taxpayers and productive citizens. What right do they have to exist? The only difference between them and the unborn is that they have a "voice," both as individuals or as members of political constituencies. But, why should that matter?
Besides, if we are not held accountable for our midless sexual escapades, it makes it a lot easier to get a little n--ky, doesn't it?
