See, this...argh. If abortion isn't bad, then why don't the people supporting it want to be called "pro-abortion?" And if it is bad, why are they supporting it? Still, on the plus side, when even the movement defending something doesn't like being directly associated with it, you know that thing's in trouble.

I tend to skirt this issue by using the term "abortion apologist." Aside from added alliterative appeal, it's polite but it negates the use of euphemisms. ...Well, unless I'm irritated, in which case it's "pro-abortion" all the way whether they like it or not. Or, if I'm really pissed off, "anti-life."
