Wig, my point is this:

There is a big block of the anti-abortion people that are also what could be classified as "conservative" and / or "christian" - they tend to vote republican...

republican / conservative views on welfare and public support basically can be summed up by saying "no, you can't take my money and give it to lazy no good people who won't work".

In other words, "You can't have an abortion, and we won't help you out after you have the kid (that you didn't want, couldn't afford, shouldn't have, medicially probably shouldn't have, was raped and impregnated, etc)".

Guys should never get a vote in this one - sorry, but guys just don't have the same maternal connection to a child that a woman does. We don't have this thing growing in us, we don't experience birth, we don't nurse the child... we don't have to put up with the physical and emtional changes that come with having children. We do five minutes of manual labor and walk away... that isn't enough to qualify you for a veto.
