Whoopi Goldberg preaching the word in this segment on abortion.

"Six weeks pregnant means two weeks late for your period, and two weeks late on your period for any person, any person with a menstrual cycle can happen if you are stressed, if your diet changes, or for really no reason at all. So, you don't have six weeks," the congresswoman told Anderson Cooper.

Co-host Whoopi Goldberg came out of the gate with her frustration over male elected officials writing laws when they have no idea what they're talking about.

"So, the question really is, are any of these men qualified to write a law when they are this freaking clueless about a woman's body?" she asked.

1. It leaves out the fact that there are lots of anti choice women. It's true. We need to

acknowledge it. Whoopi's argument doesn't.

3. The most fanatical anti-choicers I've run into have been women.

Their motivation tended to be religious rather than overtly political.

4. Exactly Pretending they don't exist doesn't help IMO

5. My mother was sort of anti choice, but not fanatical. She was...

a long time volunteer for Planned Parenthood, but left when they got more involved in abortion. It was never her business what you did, but what she did was done from her principles.

She never explained what her problem was with abortion, but it may have had a lot to do with having a miscarriage and her upbringing during the Depression. Throw in what we may call "maternal instinct" and it all becomes a powerful pro birth bias. Religion had very little to do with it.

2. The show is SO much better now that a certain co-host has left

Everyone looks so relaxed and I haven't had to even think about hitting the mute button.
