Maya – you’re absolutely right. More Republican children are being born, while all the Democrats have to show are empty wombs. Given 18 more years, there should easily be a Republican supermajority.

Republicans standing in stead of the unborn, and on their behalf? Yeah, it pretty much has been just them, with a few stalwart exceptions.
I know what she’s going for, but this graphic really strikes me as more pro-life than not (because apparently reality has a pro-life bias). The advocates of the unborn being identified with them and symbolically threatened and endangered with them too. Which is sort of the point of being an advocate, so…yeah. Another swing and a miss from the abortion apologists.

Black conservative congressman Allen West Brings Chick-Fil-A To Black Caucus Meeting And Offends Everyone, Says demoRAT Hastings [six months after the fact]
http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/08/07/allen-west-chick-fil-a_n_1752172.html?ncid=edlinkusaolp00000003
Six months ago, it was conservative congressman Allan West’s turn to provide lunch for the Congressional [liberal and] ‘Black’ Caucus and he served the democRATs chicken and biscuits from Chick-Fil-A.
DemocRAT Alcee Hastings says every member of the CLCB just realized that they were and have been offended by West’s choice of cuisine.
[I move the question and ask the chair for a role call vote. Did they eat it and did they ejoy it and were/are they ALL offended?]
According to Hasting the only food item that is verbotten by some sort of gentleman’s agreement is watermelon. Hastings says collard greens, catfish and barbecue are acceptable. Hastings did not offer any judgement on Brazile nuts.
Hastings now claims West’s choice of food was ‘in your face’.
[You got to give West credit for being subtle. This was an insult on a 180 day time delay. Or West dramatically underestimated the comprehension of his intended targets.]
This might explain why b o knew he could skip the annual convention of liberal colored people and deploy ole black joe biden in his place and no one would notice the difference.
Hey Alcee, b o’s claims to the contrary, thats ain’t yellow rain running down your leg.

Maybe we should counter with “The feminist in the womb” and a picture of a child in a silent scream.

A great example of cheap flippancy–these people are too dumb to make a clever joke at our expense. Probably because they don’t have truth on their side–and every good jab needs a grain of truth. What exactly is being said here? That women who HAVE their babies are Republican? That Republicans are trying to get into the wombs of women to control them? That Republicans have passed tons of pro-life legislation of late? Come on, girls, give us the punch line!

I think the ad is correct. I wholeheartedly believe if given the option to live and choose affiliation, this pre-born person would be a Republican.

Uh oh, Maya forgot pro-choice rule #1:
NEVER, under any circumstances show the womb or its inhabitants. Information is inconvenient to the pro-choice argument.

This is the elephant in the womb:

Oh wait its not an elephant it’s a blob of tissue, right? Or do we have to ask the elephant’s mother? If Jumbo says the baby is alive it is, otherwise it isn’t, right?

What about the other half of the story? the asinine Democrats and the “baby in the tomb”?

The slogan “The elephant in the womb” with just a picture of a real baby in the womb would be a great graphic to co-opt for the pro-life movement. To use it at protests or just as blog-and-Facebook art is a good idea. It’s kind of like how the “Dr Seuss” book “Horton Hears a Who” was never intended to be a pro-life lesson by the author (it made him upset), but it doesn’t stop it from being incredibly pro-life in content in spite of its author’s beliefs.
