Rather, it is up to the woman, and perhaps the man implicated, who must under trying circumstance make the weighty decision to abort.
Given some of the rhetoric, i.e.; fetuses are simply masses of cells, the life of one citizen is worth the equal amount of another's desires, etc., I believe there are few 'liberals' that feel there is anything 'weighty' about the choice to abort as their conscience is already cleared by the majority of the rationalizations given to support the idea of a moral choice in the matter. Under the guidance of the Supreme Court's precedence in Roe v. Wade, it is never the man's choice, it's unfortunate you'd even entertain that thought in stating that it would "perhaps [be up to] the man implicated". Not to seem unreasonable; I agree with your choice of words, but in looking at the argument of it being a 'woman's right to control her body' let's understand that the man's view is not ever a matter of relevance nor does he retain the same right a woman does when making the choice to abort or not abort.
Contrary to the conservative perception, liberals do not encourage abortion
There is an interesting stigma attributed to 'liberals' - that, they, themselves, believe abortion is a necessary tool to relieving poor single mothers of an unfortunate, unavoidable circumstance. Somehow, it is thought, confirming a right to an abortion is also a vote for it's use!
In allowing citizens' access to the cookie jar, but at the same time saying that one is not for citizens accessing the cookie jar is dubious character-damning rhetoric allowing uncritical minds abortion proponents uneeded slack.
Liberals do not publicly frown on those who for whatever reason make the momentous choice.
Maybe not, but I don't think that is reflected in today's society. In line with 'liberal' think (I'm using the term loosely - obviously not all who proclaim themselves liberal actually assign themselves to the highly subjective conservative opinion of what is a liberal) is the aggressively progressive woman's movement who possibly attribute more value to the 'modern' woman who rises through a career outside of domestic burdens as opposed to one who lifts them up.
pro-abortion" and "pro-choice
It's simply a way of framing the issue to stifle actual debate about the issue. Republicans may say they are 'pro-tax cuts' leaving the mind to infer that anyone debating against them must be 'anti-tax cuts' allowing them to affectively sweep any fact, question, or intelligent debate aside.
