Frank, As a woman who knows many people in the medical field I can honestly say that that story was meant for sensationalism. Most OB/GYN physicians won't even touch a purposely induced abortion. You give me the name of that place and I'll investigate it. In most states it's illegal to induce an abortion after 24 weeks and the vast majority of Md's wouldn't touch it after 12 if at all. You act like women are lining up in drones to get these alleged procedures when in fact they agonize over the whole situation. What men don't understand is that women, when pregnant, are under the highly emotional influence of hormones. It is highly difficult for ANY women to have an abortion. The woman has spent many hours agonizing over her condition by the time she gets to the actual procedure. What you describe is an actual labor and delivery which sounds like a saline injection. It's not new by any means and it's not fun by any means. It also is a late stage abortion because poor lung development is very often the cause of death in premature infants. The circumstances surrounding abortion are highly individualized and personal.........ask Bob Barr your spokesman from Georgia who drove his wife to an abortion that he paid for himself. He claimed it was nobody else's business what he and his wife decided and I agree with him ( for once ).
