The above photo has apparently been making the rounds on the intarweb. It's clearly a good example of Photoshopping--there's no way a human fetus' foot could protrude from a woman's stomach like that considering the inches of placenta, abdominal muscle and fat, and epidermis lying between the fetus and the surface of the skin--but, apparently, pro-lifers have been using it as a rallying point for their cause.

I don't exactly know what a protruding expression of a foot has to do with being pro-life or pro-choice, for that matter. I know that were I, personally, to observe such a thing protruding from a woman's already-disgusting gravid belly, I would probably shriek like a little girl and start hammering at it with an axe-handle. It reminds me of one too many scenes from Alien and many derivative films....
