Generally her humor doesn't appeal to me, but I saw a promo spot that used the word "abortion," so naturally I was all over it. I wanted to see if Silverman's "edgy" style is limited to patriarchy-friendly molestation jokes and endless bathroom humor, or if she'd take on a truly taboo, career-killer topic. To my surprise, she totally went there - she lampooned clinic protestors and their stupid slogans, exhibited not even a hint of sensitivity on this VERY SERIOUS TOPIC, and didn't create pro-choice/feminist straw women to mock in order to be "even-handed." It was pretty gutsy -- because in the media, *no* cohort is more molly-coddled than pro-lifers. By "young and self-medicated Monty" I meant back when they were creatively-fertile and perpetually high. I should have just said that. @ Jill

Unless i've missed something big from the World of Science, its impossible to develop a living, viable fetus out of the remains of a terminated pregnancy. The joke is essentially this: "Here, you guys want the damn embryo so much, you can have it. Good luck with that." Or, even shorter, "I got your fetus right here, dumbass" (flings fetus). This could be sketch comedy in the hands of the young and self-medicated Monty Python, or Sarah Silverman. (The episode of the Sarah Silverman show where she accidentally joins an anti-choice terrorist group, "Bored of the Rings," is already pretty damn funny and amazingly its available on iTunes - I guess it flew beneath the abortion censorship radar). Cut the kid some slack already. C’mon, people.

Of course, then the question is: Where will he put the uterus? I imagine it would be kind of like a colostomy bag for reproductive effluvia.
