Protecting the fetus, not the child

By GottaLaff

While I try to get my bearings on a borrowed computer with none of my own settings/programs, I'll put up this little gem of a quickie:

Re "Federal court upholds abortion foes' 1st Amendment rights," July 3

It's strange to see the U.S. 9th Circuit Court of Appeals -- the "Liberal 9th" -- uphold the right of abortion protesters to display gigantic blow-ups of detailed photos of aborted fetuses to middle-school children, while our commander in chief and his military underlings refuse to allow even distant photos of the flag-draped caskets containing our Iraq and Afghanistan war dead.

Also suppressed are detailed photos of our injured troops, sparing us adults the bloody details of death our children can see in billboard-sized photos -- as long as the photos relate to abortion and the dead are not 18 or older.

This pretty much epitomizes BushCo's priorities. Now back to struggling with my frustrating inability to get going.
