Help from Odd Places

You know, I was just thinking. The Schiavo mess might actually help the pro-choice side regarding defending reproductive rights.

The pro-choice side has always argued that it's a private decision where the state shouldn't be be butting its nose in because of all the painful and personal issues involved. Given the seventy percent of the public who feel similarly about the Schaivo case, that there's a clear line between private and public decisions, the "pro-life" side out raising hell is making a pretty good case for the pro-choice position here.

Funny how things work out sometimes.
