Plain(s)feminist: Just plain feminism.

Links: Minority Report, Pro-Choice Ads, and More

(I've been sick this week, so instead of writing, I'm linking.)

Read the Task Force to Study Abortion minority report here.

Watch the first SD Campaign for Healthy Families ad here.

Watch the second ad here.

Doctor says ban threatens women's health (click below for full story):
"One of Buehner's patients told of her experience being pregnant while dealing with diabetes. Despite some complications, her pregnancy ended with the birth of a healthy daughter who is now 6 years old.

The woman said if she became pregnant again, her health would be at risk, and she could go blind or suffer kidney failure.

She said that although her life may not be threatened, her quality of life and ability to care for her daughter would be threatened if abortion was not an option."


Herseth, Johnson, and THUNE oppose abortion ban. (Thanks to Coat Hangers at Dawn for these two stories!)
