And isn't it interesting that the same people who won't support abortion, also don't want publicly funded health insurance to cover birth control, however its okay for Medicare to cover the generic form of Viagara. And how ironic that these same anti-abortion folks are all in favor of capital punishment.

This is forced birth extremism that treats women not as persons with basic human rights and feelings, but simply as incubators. And let's not forget this is not the end of things. These conservative groups are going to go as far as they can - push against certain types of contraception; sexual intercourse only legal within the bounds of marriage or for the purpose of procreation leaving marriage rights at risk. The only way this has even come to pass is that conservative Supreme court nominees lied in interviews and at their confirmation hearings. Make no mistake, there are no ethics involved here, its all politics as usual.
