91. That's the way
I see it too...

because we don't want to give them a chance to use the opposite terms, denying them the ammunition to use against the other side.

"Pro Life"....opposite term "Anti Life" ... not acceptable.

"Anti Abortion....opposite term "Pro Abortion".... not acceptable.


Back when I was younger I had to make an important choice...but at least I HAD a choice. And my choice was not to abort. That doesn't mean I'm "anti abortion" or "pro life". It only means I'm Pro Choice, and I fully support anyone's right to make whatever choice they want.


And it's interesting too...they whine and piss and moan about "their rights" being taken away. I'm over 50 and past childbearing age. I have no personal stake in the whole issue, but I do wish for young women to have the same choice I did. I think that's one of the major differences between Republicans and Democrats... Republicans are all about "my rights"...Democrats, for the most part, are about the rights of others.
