Just when you thought humanity couldn't get much more deprived...

Kathleen Parker wrote a great article about a businesswoman/blogger who had a miscarriage in her office meeting and chose to flippantly update her Twitter page on that regard.

The woman tweeted "I'm in a board meeting. Having a miscarriage. Thank goodness, because there's a (expletive) 3-week hoop-jump to have an abortion in Wisconsin."

Wow. Just when you thought people couldn't get more calloused about human life.

One of my favorite points Kathleen Parker had: "Women certainly needn't feel shame for a miscarriage. Abortion, which is in an entirely different category, deserves a different conversation. It's worth noting for the sake of irony, that the principal argument for abortion was privacy."
