I find it interesting that, with the exception of dawginar who is half retarded, everyone that has posted on this has said this is bad. I imagine if you asked 1000 people this very same question you would get the same response 99.9% of the time. Now, take those same 1000 people and ask them their thoughts on abortion and let's see what kind of numbers you get. The point is that this shows just how fricked up our society is. A woman can walk in to an abortion clinic and kill another human being and it be looked at as "her body, her choice" but when that same women smokes a cigarette and drinks a beer it turns in to "OMG, does she know what she is doing to her baby?"

I dont really follow the abortion debates and all too much, but it is an interesting comparison. How far along do you have to be before you can no longer have an abortion?

Dumb thread is dumb
I know you want to think these are similar issues, but they really aren't.
Smoking and drinking while pregnant leads to lots of problems for the baby after birth. = Bad in everyone's eyes, needlessly impacting babies for the rest of their lives.
The argument for abortion isn't about people hating babies, or wanting them to have a horrible life. It is primarily about whether some situations are right to raise a child in. A 14 year old can't give a baby the same life as a well established family on most occasions. Thus the question of whether abortion is an option for that mother. (Just one of many similar scenario's we could have plugged into this.)
Disclaimer: I don't sit on either side of the Abortion debate, but I am able to see both sides and their arguments.
