Here is Example A of just one more perversion of the debate between those who favor retaining a woman\u2019s right to choose to have an abortion and those who want to make it illegal.<\/p>\n

You see, every woman who gave birth to those hypothetical children \u201con the playground\u201d made a choice. They chose to give birth to those children. Indeed, it\u2019s a choice most women who become pregnant do make. Texas state Sen. Wendy Davis, D-Fort Worth, who led the filibuster against Senate Bill 5 in the Texas Legislature this week, made a similar choice when she was pregnant at the age of 19 with her first child. For that she deserves high praise, not the kind of condemnation she is receiving now from those who want to write laws that prohibit women from making the most heart-wrenching choice they\u2019ll ever make.<\/p>\n

Those on the pro-choice side of the abortion debate should not be construed as being \u201cpro-abortion.\u201d They merely want government to keep its mitts off a woman\u2019s body; they want to enable women across America to make these choices themselves after consulting with their clergy, their families, their own souls. <\/p>\n

Whether they choose to end a pregnancy or give birth to a child should be a woman\u2019s choice<\/em> \u2026 pure and simple.<\/p>\n

That\u2019s where Wendy Davis appears to stand. That\u2019s where government at all levels \u2013 as well as Laura Ingraham and others on her end of the political spectrum \u2013 need to butt out.<\/p>\n\n
