In case you missed the ridiculous Planned Parenthood Golden Gate cartoon (since unceremoniously removed from their website), The Dawn Patrol has got you covered, complete with a hilarious play-by-play.
Now, a lot of folks are upset by the fact that the cartoon depicts the "hero" (PPGG's President, an apparently fraudulent character) blowing up non-violent abortion protesters, and later in the credits, shows an abortion protester being decapitated by a condom. All of this is in extremely poor taste, to be sure, and would probably have gotten PPGG a visit from a District Attorney if they were a pro-life group. However, that's already been adequately covered elsewhere.
What I'm more upset about is the absolute incompetence of our opposition. In this cartoon, the "hero" cures a Senator of his conservativism by washing him in some mysterious green goo, from which he emerges naked on a platter, and repentant of his evil conservative ways. If I had the time and energy to count, there would probably be over 300 images of condoms in this 8 minute cartoon. This is what passes for argument from the ardent defenders of abortion.
I'm sad that 32 years later, we haven't pushed these people into the sea (rhetorically speaking). I suppose I could say I'm glad that they're getting lazy, and that victory is around the corner, but I honestly can't recall ever hearing "arguments" better than this tripe from the pro-abortion crowd. Self-interest, even at the expense of the life of another, is a powerful political motivator indeed.
