I've had occasion to argue with some of those folks, and while they're talking out of one side of their mouth saying that no woman should ever have an abortion for any reason, out of the other side of their mouth they'll bitch that the barren among them are "forced" to adopt children from other countries because in the US there are no "desirable" babies to adopt.

My mother, being the Southern Baptist that she is, is VERY anti-abortion, carries a fetus in her pocketbook for shock value, pickets clinics, etc. One of her cohorts has 7 kids (and is still popping them out) and I asked why they didn't adopt some of these kids of the mothers that they are trying to talk out of abortions. "Because they don't know the backgrounds of those babies. They want their OWN kids!" And she said it with a serious face. Incredible.
