I just got a call... Actually they've called a lot lately and I've often wondered why they would have my name, so today I answered!
Caller: 'ello Mrs. Jeener, I'm Sebastian and a republican congressman has prepared a spiel about ending abortion on demand in the United States. Are you willing to listen to his 2 minute talk?
Me: Of course![huge spiel about roe v wade being forced upon our citizens by 9 non-elected government officials who will not determine that life begins at conception, as it would end, no wait, he said collapse, their pro-choice reign but science has determined that indeed that is when life begins and our courts need to recognize it, so will ya please send up at least $50 so we can end the killing of innocents in our country] Sebastian: So Mrs Jenner (got it right this time!) can we count on your support?
Me: Of course NOT! Sebastian: {sputter, sputter} of course not?? Why is that Mrs Jenner?
Me: Weeeeelllll, as the congressman is a MAN and will never have to face, at least in this lifetime, an unwanted or forced-upon pregnancy, I don't feel he's qualified in any sense to decide for women what to do in that situation. It's not any man's place to determine what may or may not happen between a woman and her doctor. I do consider myself pro-life, I like being alive and I think life is a glorious thing, but I will not stand between any woman and her right to exercise her free will.
Sebastian: uh, uh, uh, well, thanks for listening and have a great day, Mrs Jenner
Me: You, too, Sebastian.
Me: Of course NOT! Sebastian: {sputter, sputter} of course not?? Why is that Mrs Jenner?
Me: Weeeeelllll, as the congressman is a MAN and will never have to face, at least in this lifetime, an unwanted or forced-upon pregnancy, I don't feel he's qualified in any sense to decide for women what to do in that situation. It's not any man's place to determine what may or may not happen between a woman and her doctor.

Sebastian: uh, uh, uh, well, thanks for listening and have a great day, Mrs Jenner
Me: You, too, Sebastian.
