Quote of the Day
"By the very nature of abortion, nobody intends to have one. Nobody intends to get pregnant by mistake, nobody intends to be raped, nobody intends to be [a victim of incest], and no one intends, in the course of a wanted pregnancy, to have a catastrophic event that requires an abortion."—Cynthia Nixon, calling the bluff of lawmakers who are willfully obtuse about the distinction between wanting to be in the situation where you want an abortion and already being in that situation thus wanting an abortion.
