Abortion Debate

Just came across another oldie but goodie from student teaching. While we were doing our mock Congress exercise, each student was to write a bill. Some of these bills (the ones that got out of committee) were debated in front of the entire Congress (the whole class) and then the Speaker of the House requested a vote. One of our more… shall we say, ‘outspoken’ students was the Speaker, and when a bill regarding abortion came up, she requested a vote on it by asking, “Anybody for killin’ the babies?”
This was immediately followed by someone shouting, “I’m for it! Wait… I mean, I’m for the bill.”
