Keep Your Rosaries Off My . . . ?

It was bound to happen - Roe v. Wade played out to absurdity:
The gist of the argument: If a pregnant woman can choose among abortion, adoption or raising a child, a man involved in an unintended pregnancy should have the choice of declining the financial responsibilities of fatherhood.
Ironically, the National Organization for Women is standing up for the rights of the child:
The president of the National Organization for Women, Kim Gandy, acknowledged that disputes over unintended pregnancies can be complex and bitter.

"None of these are easy questions," said Gandy, a former prosecutor. "But most courts say it's not about what he did or didn't do or what she did or didn't do. It's about the rights of the child."
It's about the rights of the child? Except when it becomes a burden on the mother, of course.

This shall be a fun case to watch.
