Right wing nazis? Seems a holocaust is being caused by abortionists, not conservatives. I believe that those people that have killed any abortionists have been dealt with by the law. Can you tell me the last time an abortionist in the states was murdered and how many have been murdered compared to JUST PBA murders? At least try to make sense. I believe that I will keep posting information to you when you post such garbage, as the read on you is nothing less than horrific. Did you know:"Partial-birth abortion is not a standard for care for anything. In fact, partial birth abortion is a perversion of a well known technique, internal podalic version, used by obstetricians to deliver breech babies when Wil the intent is to deliver the child alive. However, this technique is rarely used in this country because of the well-known associated risks of maternal hemorrhage and uterine rupture. The 19th edition of Williams Obstetrics states that 'The possibility of serious trauma to the fetus and the mother during internal podalic version of a cephalic presentation is apparent...' Why would a procedure that is the considered to impose a significant risk to maternal health when it is used to deliver a baby alive, suddenly become the 'safe method of choice' when the goal is to kill the baby? In short, there are absolutely no obstetrical situation encountered in this country which require a partially delivered human fetus to be destroyed to preserve the life or health of the mother. When I described the procedure of partial-birth abortion to physicians who I know to be pro-choice, many of them were horrified to learn that such a procedure was even legal." --Pamela Smith, M.D., FACOG, former Director of Medical Education, Dept.
