Mind Your Own Business

Andrew Sullivan over at the Daily Dish, which I am not going to link to for reasons that will be obvious, is carrying on an ongoing monologue about his agonies of doubt over the abortion issue, exacerbated by the murder of Dr. Tiller. He's making statements about how, while he could "never condone" these late term abortions, his heart goes out to the women who have "had to make these agonizing decisions."

Andrew Sullivan is an arrogant, sanctimonious jackass and a prick.

It is not up to him to "condone" the decisions these unfortunate women have made in consultation with their doctor, their families and their spiritual guidance counselors. They did not ask for his blessing, nor should they do so. Sullivan should stick to writing about something that is in some small degree a matter that is his own business.

  1. Murder is always wrong, and abortion is almost always not.

    Abortion is no ones business except the person getting one (her choice alone) and the provider (hopefully in a safe medically approved environment).

    I always liked the original Roe vs. Wade decision, that abortion should be safe. legal and rare. There will always be situations where it is indicated medically. Most of the time it is optional. And it is not my place to tell someone that can't have one.

    Whether I think it is wrong or not is simply an opinion. Mine. Not theirs. It is their choice to do it or not. Not mine.
