Birth or not DOT COM

So Gawker.com  brought this story to my attention and it has really got me reeling.  The basic gist is that a couple in MN have created a website where people can vote on whether or not they keep their baby.  The vote on the website will "heavily influence" their decision.  It's unclear whether their motivations are personal or political, but they are most certainly, to quote South Park (the greatest show of our time)... DUMbDUMbDUMbDUMbDUMb!

I think this website devalues everyone's position on reproductive choices.  Voting for this couple to keep or abort their child as a way for people to voice their pro-life or pro-choice sentiments is illogical.  I think most pro-choice advocates are not sitting around waiting for the chance to counsel every pregnant woman that comes their way to ABORT ABORT ABORT. I also think most pro-lifers are not hoping people like these will give them the option to "save life" via a like/unlike poll button that then allows them to be parents without looking at other options such as adoption. These people obviously have another agenda going and I really hope that it's a stunt and this woman is not really pregnant...b/c I agree with gawker's assessment: THESE PEOPLE SHOULD NOT BE PARENTS or on the internet...ew gross...can we vote them off the internet?!?!
