re: #387 iceweasel

Maybe you think of a doctor who can perform the most intimate and important services to women as merely “a mechanic”. I do not.

Why not? They perform a proscribed procedure. The result is not some emanation or somesuch. I have been operated on and I would accept nothing less than a good mechanic - don’t give a rip about anything else about him/her. How is an abortion doctor different, pray tell.
