from president clinton in the 90's till now, we have reduced yearly abortions by 50%, they will likely rise again when you stop having places like planned parenthood, for cheap doctor's appointments and the prescription for birth control pills....What I find intriguing is that the "pro-choice" people have given me all the usual arguments, but they have no explained why they aren't looking for alternatives to abortion so that so many unborn children don't have to die.
Because you did promise, through Bill Clinton, that abortion would be "rare".
And when I think of the word "rare" I think of a number, maybe less than 1000 abortions per year. That would be "rare". I would not like there to be 1000 abortions per year, but I could live with it.
But we have had 60 million abortions since 1973, which averages to more than 1,000,000 abortions per year.
You have allowed Planned Parenthood to set up clinics where, if a woman goes in to seek advice about whether or not to get an abortion, the clinic worker will "sell" the woman on having an abortion in the same way a car salesman will "sell" a person coming in on buying a new car.
There really should be a neutral involved, don't you think, you can give the woman ALL her options, with no preference shown towards abortion. That would be reasonable, wouldn't it?
But the "pro-choice" movement has OPPOSED any sort of reasonable compromise where women can review their options. The "pro-choice" movement has acted on the notion that a woman should only be presented the option of having an abortion, with other options disfavored.
So really, "pro-choicers" why don't you want women to have a REAL choice?
