<\/object><\/p>\n
As some sort of abortion legislation is in the pipeline in Ireland after the Savita case, the pro-choice lobby are in their element. They wont stop at alloweing for fetus removal as should have happened with Savita, or with the X-Case where even pro-lifers such as I would be prepared to turn a blind eye.<\/address>\n

They want abortion as contraception. And that is wrong wrong wrong, and the start of a slippery slope towards eugenics.<\/p>\n

It, not I, is a problem
\nI have with it, its problem
\nIs that it exists, unwanted by I
\nWho want to get rid of it.<\/p>\n

The word it, denotes a thing
\nAnd a thing is not a person
\nMaybe human but lesser
\nNot even subhuman
\nWe regret the lives lost of those who were deemed so.<\/p>\n

But a fetus, is an it.
\nIts mother an I
\nAnd an eye for an eye
\nOr an I for an I
\nBut lets not think of it
\nAnd flush it
\nTo the dustbin of history
\nThe sewer.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
