Angie Has an Abortion…And You’re Invited

Seriously, there are no words…there just aren’t.

Okay, maybe there’s a few…how about she was using 2 kinds of birth control but still found herself pregnant?  Hmmmmm…tell me again why we should promote contraception?

Or how about “There’s no shame”…no, I guess there isn’t.  There’s no shame in anything anymore.  And THAT is a shame.

Or how about, what is this child’s big brother going to think when he sees his mom on YouTube talking about killing his little brother or sister…

***I’m not a Jesus on a Tortilla believer, but I gotta say, that silhouette in the window behind her…well, what does it look like to you?

***To follow things in real time or read my hatemail after the fact, go through the Twitter hashtag #livetweetingabortion or follow me @antitheistangie [Warning: some of the "pro-life" tweets are flat-out disgusting.]

    She originally claimed 3 types. No WAY could you get pregnant w/ an IUD, condom, and spermicide being used every single time. It’s likely something happened and she doesn’t want to tell. Even so, birth control IS a personal choice; killing a child isn’t.
    She also INSISTS it is for health reasons but refuses to divulge them. if it’s nothing to be ashamed of, why not just tell it how it is?

    Uh.. looked like a baby in an ultrasound in the window.

    That video is sad. A baby was dying.

    The Stay-Puft Marshmallow Man about to burst through the wall all “OH YEAH” a la Kool-Aid guy?

    Like PIP said, it seems there’s a few things she’s not being honest about.

    Hello all 2 SF fans!

    Is anyone unable to see video on the page? All of a sudden I’m not getting certain kinds of video content. I had the video of the nuns on Oprah but now the space is blank, as is the space on MK’s recent post regarding Angie. I was able to access “Angies’s abortion” after googling it, and I don’t seem to have problems with other youtube videos, including lenghty ones. Does anyone have any clues? Any answers would be appreciated. Thanks!

    Okay- so you can actually not realize it. Still, seems like if it can fall out rather easily- should be taking extra care to make sure its there, no?

    I read an interview with her, and she seemed like a very intelligent person. However, there are so many contradictions in what she says. Th most obvious to me is that abortion is always defended as a private choice. Exhibiting it to the world seems quite the opposite.

    You don’t have to google it ;) http://bryankemper.com/2010/02/24/my-interview-with-angie-the-girl-who-live-tweeted-her-abortion/

    Obviously, a truly intelligent person would know that abortion is not a “medical condition” as she has said. What I’m saying is that she’s definitely not stupid, or ignorant.

    Thank you for providing the link. I read through her answers, and found them to be intelligent, well-worded and substantial in their reasoning. Totally different than the impression I get of her in her video.

    Then I read the comments – I ran across a comment that “scolded” the blooger for conducting what she thought was an email interview. I am not sure if it was done through email, but if it was, that might explain the disparity I sense between her spoken words and her responses in this interview.

    Here is part of the comment I lifted from the site, talking about the problems with doing an email interview :

    Also, written interviews tend to lead to prepared answers. She can type, retype and edit her answers until she likes it. Real interviews allow for more candid, honest answers, no prep.

    That is what I am saying – her interview answers don’t equal her spoken answers. Maybe she had help, and that inflated her appearance of intelligence.

    Or, maybe I am guilty of measuring a person’s intelligence by how much they align with my opinions and beliefs. I am deeply saddened by everything that she is, says and does.

    I cannot express it – like MK said in the beginning, “There are no words.”
