Animal fetus mania!

posted at 9:58 pm on November 22, 2006 by Allahpundit

I wonder if pro-lifers will start using these photos in their literature. It’s one thing to kill a baby, but to kill a puppy?

That just seems cruel.

I think the real question is, why does the Daily Mail want to control elephants’ bodies?

As for what to do about making sure there are fetuses to photograph, that’s easy: porn.

James Taranto had a great comment on this today:

The unborn elephant, shown at the link, is quite something to see. By contrast, as we all know from reading the newspapers, there is no such thing as an unborn human being. We develop by a little-understood process in which a clump of cells, similar to a tumor or a fingernail, miraculously becomes a baby at the moment the entire clump is exposed to air.

That humans and animals come into the world in such radically different ways pretty much demolishes the notion that we are the product of Darwinian evolution, doesn’t it?

Ron Jeremy, where are you?

harrison on November 22, 2006 at 10:04 PM

There have been many, many ads for the upcoming series on “in the womb” or titled similar to that. I hope something good might come of it showing animals developing. But I’d bet many libs are less likely to abort an animal than a human.

Panda Porn? What can you say to that? Grin and bear (bare) it?

Ah, but killing a puppy isn’t health care!

Why do you hate women?

Pablo on November 22, 2006 at 10:29 PM

Blasphemy.

We all know babies are hatched from an egg and then the Stork (a near relative of the Chickenhawk) drops them off at the hospital.

The nine month thing, it’s just an excuse for them to lay around eating bon-bons and calling us mean names.

Great. Now they’re ruining the pandas’ family values!

You want to give those poor little pandas an inferiority complex?

Well that is without question. Are you aware of the laws protecting eagles? While there are millions of abortions (babies killd), both paid for and free, every year, DON’T YOU DARE touch an egg or even the carcass of a dead eagle lest you be heavily fined and to possible jail time.

Priorities?

Did someone say “panda porn”? This guy digs exotic looking chicks. lol! (and this one)

And not be outdone… this cat!

Oh man, foreign commercials are the best.

Believe it or not, I was simply looking for a video of the Conan character “Masturbating Bear”, and the only thing I found was a particular episode where it was Jim Carey inside the costume. Anyway, these real videos are much better.

There is actual proof of that statement in real time.

Are you aware of all the laws on the books to protect the various species of life, such as the Spotted Owl?

Crack the egg of a creature who is listed on the endangered species list and you risk various forms of legal action against you. Fines, jail time, the works.

Pay a person to kill your baby inside your womb, no jail time. Take money from a woman who is hiring your to dismember her baby, no jail time, no fine.

Yes, the value system in our country, the USA, and in the world, regarding the protection of animals, but the dismemberment and slaughter of innocent new humans being via abortion is askew!

40 Plus million slaughtered since Roe v Wade – 1973, and counting.

“RightWinged,”

I had the opportunity to read your message, snipped and included here.

I share your sentiments.

Is there an echo in here?

William

William2006 on November 23, 2006 at 12:49 AM

Yeah, I don’t think a lot of people are aware of the fu**ed up priorities in this country William. I mean, again, you aren’t even allowed to touch an eagle carcass or parts. WTF!?

RightWinged on November 23, 2006 at 1:13 AM

For what it’s worth, here’s my take on it:


“ Live Elephant at Rest in Its Liquid Tomb”

<PICTURE OF ELEPHANT IN UTERO>

This is a baby elephant elephant fetus in the womb… it’s gorgeous, isn’t it?

Good thing it’s not a living being — all up to 200lb of it — because, legally, you can abort it in order to protect the convenience and economic wellbeing life and health of the momma elephant.

Of course, daddy elephant has no rights and no say in this, and that’s as it should be because it’s the mother’s body.

There’s no independent life growing inside of her.

Time to point out that out of the approximately 1,300,000 abortions done every year in America, (at least) 91.8% are for nothing more than late birth control!. The percentage was a bit higher from a study cited on a women’s issues section of About.com, but it disappeared some time ago… These are admittedly from Wikipedia, but they are pretty close to the same… The sad part is, I’ve debated liberals who don’t even recognize the simple FACT revealed, which is that 91.8% (again, at least) are just for birth control, rather than any health issues.

* 25.5% Want to postpone childbearing
* 21.3% Cannot afford a baby
* 14.1% Has relationship problem or partner does not want pregnancy
* 12.2% Too young; parent(s) or other(s) object to pregnancy
* 10.8% Having a child will disrupt education or job
* 7.9% Want no (more) children

91.8% birth control

* 3.3% Risk to fetal health
* 2.8% Risk to maternal health
* 2.1% Rape, Incest, Other

8.2% other (though I think that’s high, based on other figures I’ve seen… and it just seems high anyway… even if it’s accurate, the point stands).

That’s okay though, again, as long as we protect those eagle carcasses and parts of dead eagles. Don’t you dare touch them unless you want to wind up paying thousands in fines and wind up in the joint. But by all means ladies, be whores and don’t take responsibility… Get pregnant ever week if you wish and just kill your baby. I mean, you don’t want more kids, or you want to go back to school, or you’re just not ready. Don’t worry, dirty PETA hippies won’t be throwing read paint on you when you walk out of Planned Parenthood.

RightWinged on November 23, 2006 at 6:02 AM

I’m just going to agree with what Rightwinged said.

vcferlita on November 23, 2006 at 6:15 AM

Dang, another comment that didn’t show up… had some good stats for you guys too… hopefully it shows up eventually.

RightWinged on November 23, 2006 at 6:44 AM

Those people over at HuffPo (i feel so dirty), tried this same post yesterday.

Their hypocritical ‘oohs & aaahs’ at the beauty & wonder of life in the womb did not receive a very welcomed response.

If it all wasn’t so deadly tragic, it would be funny.

locomotivebreath1901 on November 23, 2006 at 9:52 AM

Cameras and scanners up these poor pregnant animals a$$es? Where’s peta when you need them?

EF on November 23, 2006 at 9:55 AM

But by all means ladies, be whores and don’t take responsibility… Get pregnant ever week if you wish and just kill your baby.

Hey, stud! Get a vasectomy! Or, at least put a cap on it. And if you don’t, you take responsibility by marrying the mother of your child and loving and supporting them both. Until you do, knock off the whore comments.

EF on November 23, 2006 at 10:31 AM

Allah,

Panda porn should have been its own post. There’s a lot of comedy gold to be mined there.

As an aside, I’ve seen panda porn and it did nothing for me. Not even the P.I.L.F. stuff.

RightWinged,

Those videos were hilarious! The cat made me cry.

EF on November 23, 2006 at 10:31 AM

First of all EF, don’t take my comments out of context, second… What are you a little sensitive because you chose to kill your baby “get some healthcare”? YOU just made me in to whatever person you’re angry at. Where did I say anything about anything I’ve done?! So why don’t you just tone down your own personal issues psycho.

I noticed you chose not to dispute the fact that there are whores all over the country (not to mention world) killing millions of babies a year, simply because they don’t want them. And somehow that’s the guy’s fault? I’m not saying it’s not the guy’s responsibility, but that has absouletly nothing to do with my point, and you would have to be retarded not to understand that. I could end you simply by pointing out that the man has no say in the abortion. What if he wants to take responsibility and take care of his kid, and the woman says… Eh, fu** it. I just can’t be bothered with birth control, so I’ll just keep spreadin’ and if I get pregnant once and a while, I’ll have a doctor go in there and destroy it… Oh, you want to be a daddy? To bad, I want some “women’s health care”.

But again, the man’s CLEAR responsibility as a willing party in getting a woman pregnant has ABSOLUTELY NOTHING TO DO with what we were talking about. Again, YOU have some kind of weird personal issues that got you worked up, but that doesn’t mean you have a point at all.

I just can’t even put in to words how idiotic your response was, and I’m just being repeatative so… just come back with some other response, unleashing your anger at that guy who never called you back.

RightWinged on November 23, 2006 at 12:30 PM

I think I’m the one who struck a nerve here. lol! As far as weird personal issues, you are the one going around calling women whores. Like I said, do your bit to raise the IQ of the population – put a cap on it.

EF on November 23, 2006 at 8:59 PM

EF on November 23, 2006 at 8:59 PM

Let me guess, you’re a liberal? I’m not familiar with you, but knowing nothing about you other than your two posts, it’s quite clear you’re a liberal because a, you’re an idiot, and b, you put absolutely no thought in to either of your posts.

So for the record, YOU chose to make an irrelevant and emotional post. I responded in disgust, with a reasoned post. And because you know you have nothing, you just dismiss it. Excellent job.

For the record, I didn’t call “women whores”.. I called women who can’t take responsibility for their actions whores. If they aren’t prepared to take responsibility for a child, then they shouldn’t be having sex in the first place, bottom line. You obviously have no problem with at least 1.2 million babies being killed every year, simply as a method of birth control. Sorry, but I do.

You didn’t strike a cord with me. Your idiocy did, which is why I responded the way I did. Your first comment to me was so irrelevant to the point, it was beyond what I even expect out of most liberals. See previous comment, I’m not going to repeat it. (psssst… I know that’s what you want me to do, so then you can nitpick at individual points, while ignoring the main points as a whole, until you’ve diverted away to something completely off topic so you can run along… liberals do this day in and day out)

RightWinged on November 23, 2006 at 10:29 PM

To be clear one more time, NONE of the issues at hand have effected me personally. You can choose to believe me or not, but I want to clarify that my response wasn’t out of personal issues as was clear in your original reply. Mine was out of frustration with the idiocy of your post, and it won’t be the first time or the last, that I post similarly to liberals on any number of issues when they act like complete idiots.

RightWinged on November 23, 2006 at 10:31 PM

And you’re a total whack job. As far as choosing to make an irrelevant and emotional post you are the one yelling about “whores.” You are the one blaming women for getting pregnant as if it is a unilateral phenomena. What’s the matter? No dad to explain the facts of life to you? And yeah you did call women whores and you did talk about “spreading” their legs. How crude can you get? It’s amazing what HotAir choses to censure/not censure. You need therapy. Now run along and get it.

EF on November 23, 2006 at 10:40 PM

Once again, no argument from a mental midget.

I did not call “women whores”, I called the women who find no problem getting pregnant and using abortion as a form of birth control whores. What don’t you understand about that? I know, you understand it perfectly well but you’re a liberal and that prevents you from any level of honesty here.

Again, itt has nothing to do with them simply getting pregnant, it has to do with them not taking responsibility. Where did I say that men have no responsibility? In fact I said quite the opposite, they do have plenty of responsibility. And this has nothing to do with my point, but the women certainly do bear more responsibility. They chose to sleep with the guys (don’t try to go off on some fringe “rape” tangent, I’m talking about the vast majority here, and you know it, so don’t let your predictable liberal dishonesty start up there… don’t you hate being predictable?). So they chose to sleep with the guys, and chose not to force the guy to wear a condom and/or chose not to take birth control. Seems like they bear more responsibility, but even if it was 50/50 THAT DOESN’T AFFECT MY POINT ABOUT WOMEN USING ABORTION AS BIRTH CONTROL. GET IT!?

Crude? Why is it crude to state the truth? How is it more crude them murdering a defenseless child because these women refuse to take responsibility for their actions? (here’s where you again avoid the point and say something like “what about the deadbeat dads that don’t take responsibility for their children?”… What about them? They’re effing dirtbags. The scum of the Earth. But that has nothing to do with the point of my original comments or my REPEATED POINT).

You say I need therapy you psycho? You’re the angry woman who went after me in your original comment to me, as if I have impregnated women and not taken responsibility for them. Not only is that not true and I don’t have any children, but it’s COMPLETELY irrelevant to the point.

I can’t wait until you write another post about how I need to “put a cap on it”, because you’re angry at some guy who you think I am, and ignore the fact that the point I was, and have continued to make is the disgraceful practice of birth control abortions that make up the extreme super majority of abortion cases.

RightWinged on November 23, 2006 at 11:30 PM
