Conservative Common Man

I was under the false impression that NARAL was a supposed proponent of women’s health issues. I almost thought I saw an example of hypocrisy when I read an article linked to under “Choice Headlines” on the NARAL web site. The link read: Missouri law may restrict abortion. I clicked the link and read the article from the Columbia Missourian and discoverd a great deal about the priorities of NARAL.

Excerpt:

After Aug. 28, any medical clinic performing more than five first-trimester abortions a month, or any abortions later in pregnancy, will be required to be licensed as an “ambulatory surgical center.”

That means abortion clinics will be subject to a wide range of state health department regulations governing their personnel, equipment, cleanliness and the physical characteristics of their facilities. Missouri’s existing regulations for outpatient surgery centers even set such things as minimum hallway widths and parking lot spaces.Planned Parenthood of Kansas and Mid-Missouri says it could cost up to $2 million to renovate its Columbia clinic to comply with the new law. The alternative is to stop offering abortions there, leaving a St. Louis clinic as Planned Parenthood’s only site for surgical abortions in the state.

Supporters of the new law say it is intended to ensure the health and safety of women, an assertion disputed by opponents.

So Planned Parenthood, which had a profit of over 50 million dollars in the 05-06 fiscal year and received over 300 million in taxpayer dollars, would have to spend money to meet the sanitation and sterilization standards. I suppose that could cause a problem for the noble organization that only seeks to turn as high a profit as possible while killing the most innocent of all people! On the bright side for abortion mills such as Planned Parenthood facilities, the new standards would not likely affect their policy of not reporting statutory rape in the name of “women’s privacy.” (Never mind the notion that the victim of statutory rape is legally a child.)

NARAL is concerned that abortion mills may be held to standards that might limit infection and other post-abortion physical ailments. These standards may cause some providers of this brutal slaughter to decide to get out of the abortion business. It seems that the goal of NARAL is to ensure a woman’s right to choose, as long as she chooses abortion and isn’t picky about who does it or what the sanitary condition of the butcher shop is.

Here are five reasons I am pro-life (NARAL believes no one should have these:)
