Who?  You...


What?  can eat your way to Reproductive Freedom...

Where?  at a Krispy Kreme near you*...

When?  on Inauguration Day (Jan. 20th)...



Why?  because the American Life League says so:
The next time you stare down a conveyor belt of slow-moving, hot, sugary glazed donuts at your local Krispy Kreme, you just might be supporting President-elect Barack Obama's radical support for abortion on demand - including his sweeping promise to sign the Freedom of Choice Act as soon as he steps in the Oval Office, Jan. 20.

While I don't think that was Krispy Kreme's intention when they announced that they would be "honoring American's sense of pride and freedom of choice on Inauguration Day, by offering a free doughnut of choice to every customer on this historic day, Jan. 20," I'm just going to have to start eating more donuts!

Will you do the same?

*Please note that the states in yellow do not yet have a Krispy Kreme.

Hi right2life, I just want to clarify that I'm celebrating women's right to life that is dignified and healthy.  I'm also celebrating all of the lives and the families that have been saved because of the legal right to abortion.  Just as you have your beliefs, mine are that no potential life can supersede the life of a woman.  I believe that protecting legal right to abortion is a statement that human life is not disposable.  Thanks for letting me clarify.

 @Right2Life: Saying that someone should never reproduce because of their ideological beliefs is not contributing to a constructive dialogue; it is hateful and oppressive. I, and I'm sure many others on Amplify, appreciate the interplay of our differing points of view but it is inappropriate to make personal attacks based on someone's beliefs.
