The Only Moral Abortion is MY Abortion

There is a diary up on the DailyKos here that discusses this article.

I found it on Steve Gilliard's blog here

Many years ago my husband, before I knew him, worked at the PP clinic in Seattle. He told me the story that had been told to him by the clinic director of the day that the head of the anti-choice group that picketed the clinic regularly asked to have an appt. with her after hours. The woman needed to make an appointment for her daughter who needed an abortion. Being the kind and empathetic woman that the director was, she said of course assuring the mom that confidentiality would be kept, etc.

At the end of the meeting, she asked the anti how she could reconcile taking this action with and helping her daughter get an abortion. How does she have thtemerityty to stand out in front of the clinic and try to block other women from coming in. The anti said something to the effect,

"My daughter's a good girl, she's not a slut like the others who come here."

The stories never end, and never will end.
