is it a perfectly legitimate, incontravertable agruement beyond reproach for the pro-abortion position to be "keep your laws off my body" but a totally illegitimate arguement when it comes to mandating laws that affect everyone's body?

This doesn't make any sense to me..

I'll never have an abortion. I can't get pregnant. But I totally get the "keep your laws off my body" arguement when it comes to the pro-choice position which is why I support it.

But those that make this arguement when it comes to abortion, make the exact counter arguement when it comes to healthcare reform..

"Put your laws all over my body!" Really? Except when it comes to protecting the access to abortiion, right?

It's not about a government take over of our bodies, nor is it about taking away choice. But if you think it is then I can see why you would be confused.
