I would even accept "pro-fetus" as less hypocritical, as long as they included in their self-identification the disclaimer: "We are pro-fetus and really couldn't give a damn about the life or health of the woman carrying the fetus."
Exactly. That's where the worst of the hypocrisy comes in. These right-wing "pro-lifers" have little to say about the care and protection and nurturing of the child once s/he has emerged from the womb. But they do have a lot to say about their lack of concern for life.
Two common examples:
Free school lunches? Ha! Better the doctor never cut the umbilical cord on you, Junior. I'm not paying for your lunches with my tax dollars. Get it?
And boy I sure hope that "Old Sparky" is going to snuff out the life of that convicted killer tonight. His victims and even his own family would have been better off if'n he'd never been born in the first place.

Amen. Or the fetus, once it's no longer a fetus (i.e., born)!
