Why is this AMD thread a political one? Let's move somewhere else.

AS, so Al Gore invented the Internet, Bush created Enron, Clinton really didn't have sex with Lewinsky, and unborn babies are nothing more than tadpoles. Truly you have a dizzying intellect. Tenchusatsu

And late term abortions is a phony scare issue meant to disgust people. I've never even heard of it happening though I'm sure it has a few times. Estimates of partial birth abortions range from 600 to 15000 a year. Thats a pretty wide range but since you can talk about different years and define "partial birth" slightly differently, and the data is relatively thin, its not a total shock to have a wide range of estimates. And since this is only one form of late term abortion I'd say you could probably change that range to 1000 to 25k+ (maybe more depending on how exactly you define late term). Not exactly the most common time in a pregnancy for abortions but not a phony issue either. Actually even if it was one it wouldn't be a phony issue, but with at least thousands and just maybe tens of thousands it is even less so. Tim
