Abortion rights leader’s pregnancy surprises opponents: ‘Is that real?’ – The Washington Post

The astonishment of the “pro-life” crowd is simply amusing, and points to the theory that they don’t have the ability to think beyond 2-dimensional/black-and-white stereotypes.

Yes, folks. People can be pro-choice and still love children. I adore my five children and every one of my 11 grandchildren. I think parenting (and grandparenting) is the most important job any of us will ever have.

And I absolutely believe a woman has control over her own body and the inalienable right to make her own decisions about it. All women should have full and immediate access to reproductive care, including contraception and abortion. And every child needs society to be committed to the well-being of each life born. We need this if we’re going to be the best parent we can be to the children we have, and if our children are going to have the best life they can live.

Why is that so hard to understand?
