When a Pro-Choicer Sees the 'Baddie' in the Mirror

Credit :

Lately, advocates of legal abortion have attempted to give their ailing cause a shot in the arm. As John Stonestreet pointed out on BreakPoint recently, the tried and true "pro-choice" moniker is falling out of favor. And the accompanying crocodile tears over "the difficult choice of abortion" that were once necessary for public credibility seem to have dried up. The "safe, legal and rare" days are gone, replaced with cavalier celebrations of abortion as a positive good in art, film and now spoken word poetry.

That last is the work of Leyla Josephine, whose new video, "I Think She Was a She," is being trumpeted as an act of heroism at The Huffington Post. Josephine, who had an abortion as a teenager, says she felt no shame over her decision. In fact, she's proud of it, and thinks her aborted child would agree!

"I would've supported [my daughter's] right to choose, to choose a life for herself, a path for herself," Josephine says. "I would've died for that right like she died for mine. I'm sorry, but you came at the wrong time."

She concludes, "When I become a mother it will be when I choose."

This heartbreaking, horrific little paean to human sacrifice fits to a T the new narrative of the movement formerly known as "pro-choice."
