Jivin J’s Life Links 3-10-09b

The New York Times fulfilled its duty a few days early by printing this puff piece on the graying of abortion providers, whose sole source seems to be the claims of abortion providers.
Another is former abortionist Suzanne Poppema, who has an RH Reality Check piece entitled, “Save the endangered abortion provider!”
We’re still waiting for Hallmark to make us a special line of greeting cards, but the very existence of a day honoring abortion providers is a step in the right direction.
You’ll be waiting for a long time. Imagine a card section for abortionists in the card shop next to Husband, Wife, Mother and Father. What would a form thank you card for an abortionist say? “To the person who made me wait in a crowded room all day, charged me $400 and then saw me for a minute or so before vacuuming out my uterus, you’re the best physician I’ve ever met.(Well, I guess we really didn’t meet, did we?)”
What room is there for ethics in President Obama’s thinking? He says that he ‘understand[s]’ the concerns of opponents of this research, but this is the sort of empty and condescending acknowledgment of an opponent’s views encouraged by the teachers of conflict resolution, a formulaic expression of the sort that careful listeners will frequently hear from our new president.
Neither the president’s speech nor his executive order actually acknowledge what the ethical concerns are. He assures the nation that the research will proceed “responsibly” and that “the perils can be avoided,” but from the point of view of opponents of this research, it is his policy itself that leads irresponsibly toward the peril of embryo exploitation and experimentation, toward accepting the destruction of one class of human beings for the benefit of another.
I can think of only two reasons for this action, for which I saw no advocacy either in the election or during the first weeks of the Administration: First, vindictiveness against all things “Bush” or policies considered by the Left to be “pro life;” and second, a desire to get the public to see unborn human life as a mere corn crop ripe for the harvest. So much for taking the politics out of science!

Submitted for your appreciation — a list of abortion providers and some of their accomplishments!
I have been meaning to thank you for some time Christina for all of the information you have gathered and the blog you maintain. Keep putting this truth in front of our faces!!
Safe. Yeah, right.
Wow…abortion providers have their own special day. Too bad that I don’t care about it as much as I care about Earth Day or Easter or Martin Luther King, Jr. Day.
They would like to think they have their own day, Vannah. :P
I hope that they don’t mind that I celebrated by taking a walk with my mother, homework, and…basically everything that I am doing when it’s not National Whatever Day. Hmmm. Not too insulting, is it?
If Hallmark ever made a line of cards that thanked an abortionist………….I’d be very disgusted.
Because then you know what comes next? Thanking the doctor who helped Granny kill herself!
How twisted is that. A national day to celebrate baby killers?
That abortionist says on her blog that she had a very “rewarding” career. Killing babies for a living and proud of it.
This world is even sicker than I thought.
We don’t have a national holiday to celebrate so many who give their lives. Why do we have a holiday to celebrate those who advocate the ownership of another human being?
I know doctors who dream of working with burn victims, doctors who piece together the skulls of children who are in terrible car accidents, and doctors who work around the clock to watch out for Vietnam veterans. Why don’t they have their own holidays? Abortionists are not doctors, though, I must confess, I find it rather amusing because I thought that Mrs. Stanek was joking at first.
Ideas for Hallmark cards celebrating death:
On vacation in Tahiti.
Glad you are finally, completely, irretrievably dead.
In sickness and in health, for richer or poorer, for better or for worse, but thank God, dead does us part.
There is only one alternative to getting older.
Getting dead.
Dead is as dead does.
Dead becomes her/him/whatever.
Do speak ill of the dead, they cannot make lame excuses any more.
Deaths a beyatch, then you’re dead.
There’s mostly dead, and there is decomposing dead.
You cannot avoid death and dead.
Life is something you can not take with you when you’re dead.
Enjoy life, dead stinks.
Life is merely a wave tossed on the ocean, a vapor in the wind.
Dead is forever.
Dead men tell no tales, but they can still raise a stink.
I have set before you this day life and death.
I came that you might have life and life more abundantly. This is eternal life, that you may know GOD.
I AM,
the Way,
the Truth,
the Life.
Hint: “Choose life.” [death sucks]

“National Abortion Provider Appreciation Day”
lol.
Even pro-choicers themselves are ashamed to use the word ‘abortion’.
Here’s what a Hallmark card for Abortion Day should read and don;t you dare call it a hilday, teh would blasphemous:
“Roses are red,
Violets are blue,
If I knew I could do ya,
I’d do it to ya
Why you ask, would ya do it to me,
Here’s my answer, give me your ear,
It’s the law of the jungle,
better you than me
Ya see, we have but one life,
And it’s mine,
Deep down inside, I know I’m gonna burn,
So it’s good times now,
Before it’s my turn”
When a society can call evil good and good evil it is on the brink of destruction.
Yes, Nero Obama’s disdain for productive and ethical scientific pursuit is also carried on my blog, and submitted to Drudge, of course.
Wouldn’t want this to stay unnoticed by the media.
The question is why should there be any shortage of abortionists? Isn’t this a respectable career choice? Good pay, regular hours, steady income.
Didn’t a group of Wayne State Medical Students for Choice have an abortionist as a speaker?
As I recall they were secretive about his visit and not happy that someone put it on the internet. Why weren’t they proud of his visit? Why not announce it to everyone?
It looked like it was being held in a classroom. Why not in a lecture hall or auditorium so as to accomodate as many people as possible?
Certainly there would be a large audience just waiting to hear the man speak and medical students who support choice should be proud to make this known, right?

It appeared to me to be in a large-ish space, not unlike a large lecture hall or a student center multi-purpose room. Not a massive space but a decent size. You can hear that the acoustics sound different than a small room would. I mean, he had a microphone. That would be seriously annoying in a classroom. I know that on my college campus, relatively few speakers used the auditorium, the theater, etc. Hillary Clinton is the only one I remember off the top of my head. It was not uncommon for speakers whose appeal was specific or specialized to use a smaller venue. There were talks in various rooms of various sizes in the student center, in a specific student lounge, and in quite a few lecture halls — and my lecture halls were generally nowhere near large enough to require a microphone for comfortable listening.
I think there are enough valid things to criticize about Hodari’s speech.
Alexandra,
It would depend on the size of the rooms too. Our campus auditorium wasn’t all that large and often accomodated guest speakers, as did lecture halls, which also varied in size were structured like amphitheatres.
Any prominent guest speaker would likely have one such a lecture room.
Hodari seemed very difficult to understand and I wonder if a microphone of some sort might have been used for the purpose of making him better heard and understood. I didn’t think the acoustics, from what I could hear on the video, were all that great.
You’re certainly correct about the lecture. I can’t imagine any prominent physician, especially a surgeon, announcing to students that he/she doesn’t always wash his/her hands between patients.
Hubby says the day he knew Hallmark really DIDN’T have a card for everything was the day he tried to find one that said, “I’m sorry I wrecked your ’57 Chevy”….. didn’t exist! LOL
Don’t worry, it wasn’t major, the car was being used in a stage production of Grease and it got out of control one night and got banged up… nobody got hurt.

Christina,
Thanks for keeping a record to remind us what kind of ‘professionals’ we are dealing with.
I’m just glad they’r tryin’ their Hypocratic best
to ‘do no harm’.
Just think what it would be like if they were misogynistic, money hungry, profiteers.
