Great post from Byron Harvey

Byron Harvey writes Why I am NOT "Anti-Abortion".

Byron writes (right before his tee time, by the way):

"I am pro-life. That means that I believe that innocent life ought to be protected by law...
... Note the terms that the media uses: they will call our side “anti-abortion”—though that is not what we call ourselves; they will oblige the pro-abortion crowd, calling them the benign-sounding “pro-choice”—which sounds so positive, so tolerant, so reasonable..."

It never ceases to amaze me how the liberal types can take a word or phrase and turn it into a prejoritive. For example, "Fundamentalist". Seems to me if you want to be a good golfer, baseball player or Christian you need to study the fundamentals. As you can tell from the title of my blog I consider it an honor when people use these sort of terms in regard to me. Next time someone calls you a "right-wing fundamentalist extremist" don't get your feelings hurt and lash out at them. Tell them, Thank you for the compliment!". You will be surprised at some of the dumbfounded looks you will get.

Anyway, I am not sure "anti-abortion" works as well as they would like. It's kind of like saying someone is anti-slavery or anti-holocaust. Most people would agree. I suspect the media will take up the mantra that I have heard some of the liberal leaders use lately. The term "anti-choice". Look for the term in a newscast near you, after all what reasonable person could be against "choice"?
