>CEDAW=100% Pro-Abortion-on-Demand!!!!!

Oh really. Odd that such strongly Catholic countries as Ireland, Italy
and most of South America have signed up and ratified the agreement.

Have you actually read any CEDAW documents? Here's an example:

http://www.un.org/womenwatch/daw/csw/healthr.htm#conclusions

The agreement encourages countries to start adopting policies that
reduce gender discrimination. Yes, CEDAW would like to see abortion
decriminalised and made available as part of a state's medical
services. But its aim - which it does not lose sight of - is to reduce
gender discrimination, and it's not about to insist on abortion when
other measures could be encouraged instead.

For example If a country starts to make contraceptives more readily
available to women and men, then that haelps meet the aim, and may
well reduce the demand for abortion.

The agreement is definitely not a simple -

sign-this-and-you-have-to-be-100%-Pro-Abortion-on-Demand

- as Darrick makes out.
