How's this? The Texas Queen of the Pro-Choice brigade is suddenly pro-life?
"Wendy Davis is continuing her campaign to reform her image as an abortion activist as she attempts to moderate her extreme views enough to placate a Texas electorate that is solidly pro-life. Davis has already downplayed her pro-abortion views and is attempting to focus on other political issues, and now she’s attempting to pull a fast one in her campaign for governor by declaring herself “pro-life.” Abortion Activist Wendy Davis Tells Texas Voters, "I Am Pro-Life" | LifeNews.com

How'z that for chutzpah, eh?
Well, I do believe her own personal story of choosing to have her baby - was outed by the other candidate.
She, personally, made pro-life choices; but wants to make sure 'choices' are still available to other women.

I think Davis has a better claim to the description "pro-life" than, say Governor Rick Perry and the rest of those other sanctimonious politicians who claim to be "pro-life" but opposes legislation that would actually enhance or save the lives of people who are already here.
Such as opposing the expansion of Medicaid in Texas, as one example.
Which can ONLY happen when the other choices are actually there to choose among.
Safe... Legal... Rare... Prompt... Free
Rare by means of far better education and use of contraception than we have today.
Aside from the million conceptions lamented so thoroughly in this thread...
there are probably another million similarly ill considered conceptions to be avoided... that aren't.
Prompt because once the diligent, educated try to avoid conception line has been crossed...
and the choice to exercise the right has been made... NO ONE gains from delay.
Free because dealing with the costs are the single largest hindrance to prompt...
and it's the best use of public funds even if/when available HI might pay something.
The right to make a choice without the ability to exercise it... isn't much of a choice at all.
(which has been the strategy they have been attempting to implement since Hyde)
