A sizeable minority in the country think of it as murder on a massive scale. Its an issue more similar to slavery then heart surgery in that it is an extremly controversial issue where both sides think the other is ignoreing or abuseing basic human rights. Generally the government should stay out of funding such highly controversial things. Compare and contrast; (Federal matching funds are available for abortions sought by Medicaid recipients only in cases of life endangerment, rape or incest.) (from agi-usa.org , much more quoted in previous message). Do you think the federal government funding abortions "only in cases of life endangerment, rape or incest" is somehow akin to slavery, Tim? I guess Ashcroft thinks so, more or less, since his proposed amendment didn't allow for rape or incest exceptions, anyway. But he's testified under oath that those particular views are currently inoperative, and we should believe him, right?
