I understand that there are people against abortion.
I disagree with a great many of them.
I don't feel the issue is black-and-white. Sometimes I think abortion is the lesser evil. And I will not vote for someone who thinks that the only acceptable reason for an abortion is the mother's life.
When it comes to my body, I will make the decisions. I am the one who has to live through the pregnancy, and live with the results of pregnancy, both positive and negative.
I will not question WHY a woman feels the need to have an abortion. Because no woman WANTS to be in the position where an abortion is the best or only answer. I will not set myself up to judge another woman for her decision on that realm.
Sarah Palin, if she had her way, would see that choice taken from me, from my daughter, and from the other women in the world.
And if you think that contraception and decent sex ed are not also on the list, I think you are mistaken.
I do understand that other women (some of them, in fact, on this very friends' list) feel differently.
