re: #50 Obdicut


If you allow any exceptions for abortion, then women will be able to claim that— this is what McCain meant by mocking the ‘health of the mother’ provision in allowing for abortion.

The rational response to this is to realize that criminalizing abortion simply is unworkable.

Another rational response is to realise that being forced to carry a pregnancy to term does damage the health and well-being of a mother.

At this time I always remember that quote: “If men could get pregnant, abortion would be a sacrament.” Rose Kennedy I believe— too lazy to google.
