You have to hand it to those feminists at Bread n Roses. They never let the facts get in the way of their lame attempts at humour.
My post about granting citizenship to unborn children has them bowled over laughing. They are just beside themselves yucking it up at the prospect of granting citizenship to a blob of tissue.
Poor, poor feminists. They have no idea how retarded their jokes are. First, because of their erroneous presentation of the facts. Secondly, because in order for parody to be funny, it has to have some semblance of truth.
Well, the feminists have certainly earned their well-deserved reputation for humour now, haven't they?
I've already posted on the notion that fetuses are not blobs of tissue. The topic shoudn't have to be belaboured like this, but apparently, these feminists think that there are millions of women out there who are stupid enough to fawn over their blobs of tissue.
And they trust these women's judgments on abortion? Women too stupid to know the difference between a baby and a blob?
It makes you wonder about these feminists.
Fern hill, trying to do pro-lifers a favour so that they don't waste their time says:
But really. The fetal rights thing is NOT working for them.
Sheesh. I thought fetal rights had everything to do with the unborn victims of crime bill.
And the US ban on federal funding for embryonic stem cell research?
And I guess pushing fetal rights has absolutely nothing to do with the "trigger" laws in the States that will make abortion illegal in a handful of States.
Or the fact that late-term abortions are restricted, if not outright banned, in several States in the US.
Sounds to me like, once again, some feminists are in a state of denial.
Now, it'd be bad enough if the feminists had spewed their ignorance simply about the unborn child. But Debra, says:
citizens have the right to vote...yes?
That's interesting. I thought babies were citizens. Does Debra think babies have the right to vote?
This just underscores another reason why their humour isn't very funny.
It's because they don't believe their own rhetoric.I don't think feminists really believe that unborn babies are blobs of tissue. I hope I'm not unduly crediting their intelligence on this point, because it would be really embarrassing-- for me and them-- if they actually did believe it. After all, they must've seen enough pictures to know the difference between a gelatinous mass of protoplasm, and a living organism that has a heartbeat, drinks amniotic fluid, kicks and even urinates.
They must know a fetus isn't a blob. So why do they persist in lying?
The bottom line is that they need the untruthful rhetoric of fetus-as-blob. They can't make their point without resorting to untruths about the unborn child. When it comes to the abortion debate, the tactic is: avoid discussion on the unborn child, but if all else fails, call him a blob. Keep repeating he's a blob, and maybe people will ignore the pictoral, anecdotal and scientific evidence to the contrary. Abortion is the elimination of a human life. But "getting rid of a blob" sounds better.
Maybe I'm expecting too much of the pro-legalized abortion crowd in wanting them to show some intellectual honesty on this point. Their rhetoric gotten them this far, right?
The upside is that the truth will out, one day or another. A so-called "right" built on lies can't stand up to scrutiny. You can't fool all of the people all of the time.

I'm guessing she's referring to this post. But I would like to say: yes I do accept comments. I regularly publish dissenting comments. I just don't publish rude comments.
skdadl takes me to task for using "retarded". How come my use of "lame" didn't get questioned? Or does her politically correct concern not extend to quadraplegics?
