Pro-choice - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Pro-choice is a common self-description used by people who believe that women have the legal right to have an abortion, or that women have the right to make decisions concerning their bodies. Opponents of the right to an abortion often argue that "pro-choice" is a misnomer, because pro-choice activists frequently oppose legislative measures such as "Informed Consent" or "Right To Know" laws, which delay and impede a woman's choice. Some medical practitioners and many pro-choice advocates consider informed consent restrictions an inconsistent and arbitrary governmental intrusion into an open, informed and confidential patient-practitioner relationship. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Pro-choice   (810 words)

Pro-Choice Sex is a choice and the choice that should be in the forefront of this issue. Your choice was made and now you should care for this baby or choose to give him or her up for adoption. This choice is not trivial and it is at this point that you have, in a sense, agreed to the possibility of making a baby with him. www.stonetablets.org /choice.htm   (810 words)

Pro-Life, Pro-Choice, Anti--Abortion, Anti-Choice: Definitional & Descriptive Fairness & Accuracy in the Abortion Debate "Pro choice" is itself a ridiculous use of English, for the question immediately arises: "choice to do what?" E.g., people speak of educational "choice" with regard to vouchers. Likewise, the "choice" in abortion involves an intrinsically immoral "choice" to kill (more specifically and precisely, murder) a preborn child. But everyone knows that choice of schools is the "choice" referred to. ic.net /~erasmus/RAZ472.HTM   (1276 words)

"Pro Choice" by Siobhan Gorman Perhaps the biggest obstacle to knowing whether vouchers improve learning, and insuring that they in fact do, is that private schools operate, by definition, outside the reach of the accountability mechanisms of public schools. Requiring the same tests for both public and private schools would give parents the comparable scores they would need to make informed choices about which schools are better for their kids--a Consumer Reports of sorts for K-through-12 education. The Democratic Party has long opposed vouchers, more on political than policy grounds, but Williams's choice should sound a very loud alarm as the Democrats head into Election 2004. www.washingtonmonthly.com /features/2003/0309.gorman.html   (3204 words)

Abortion and Pro-Choice Any pro-choice person would bridle at freedom of choice being used to justify something he is convinced is wrong. What I and many others are calling for is not that we be "pro-choice" or "anti-choice" (if such a thing were even possible) What we ask is that we look at the real consequences of our choices -and then decide the reasonable restraints we can put on harmful ones. Still, as Pope John Paul II has pointed out in his beautiful book, Crossing the Threshhold of Hope, a woman's choice to abort her child is often the result of many factors. sycophants.info /pro-choice.html   (2671 words)

But they do make better choices than a faraway "libertarian paternalist" actor that is not nearly as libertarian as Messrs. www.tcsdaily.com /article.aspx?id=041905D   (793 words)

FSU Contributor:  Reagan Republicans are Pro-Choice by Reagan Renaissance 09/01/2004 The eve of the 2004 Republican Convention would be a fitting time for all Americans to learn that the Reagan Wing of the Republican Party is planning to put a Pro-choice plank in a future party platform. The death of socialism is a certainty; the only question is whether it will be sooner and by the choice of individual Americans with the creation of new opportunities, or not much later in an involuntary catastrophe. This also explains why the aging of the Baby Boomer generation presents a threat to the U.S. Social Security system: as more of the Baby Boomers retire, there will be more people collecting Social Security benefits and fewer workers generating payroll taxes." www.financialsense.com /fsu/editorials/renaissance/2004/0901.html   (2579 words)
