How can President Bush understand the issue when he stacks the seats with people who can never know what it feels like to be pregnant? Hmmm, I see your point and agree with your logic. From now on, only rich businessmen are allowed to decide tax policy for the rich.

Bush wouldnt stack the seats now, would he? He wouldn't do that a press conference either, would he? You bet the seats were stacked! And I think they were expecting to lug around that "Mission Accomplished" campaign slogan around with 'em to show it to more stacked seats. FACT: You can't stack truth!

What is notable is the Democrat lawmakers are completely beholden to an industry that kills humans for their money. Who will pay for that? Are you telling us that it "feels" worse for a woman to be pregnant, with child, than what it feels like to be a child 2/3rds delivered feet first, and then whose brains are sucked into a jar, and then his/her head collapsed, before completing the delivery? oh....yeah....some point you have there. Becca would like you to read her view. I write to you as an abortion survivor. My mother went to a clinic at 22weeks to get rid of me, most were appalled that she waited so long. Well to make a long story short they gave her the saline solution...or gave it to me rather. I was burned and poisoned but it didn't kill me. She never went into labor and so she figured she had to carry me to term but it didn't matter. I was dead or so she thought. 25 weeks came and went and much to my mothers chagrin she felt me still kicking. So she went back, the doc found me still breathing and he offered a partial birth abortion. My mom said she needed to think on that one and so we went back home. At thirty weeks, she never went back and she was starting to wonder about me, was I even still alive? I wasn't kicking as much anymore. Well she went into labor at 35 weeks, average gestation and all. I was born, my skin was red and scarred, my hair was gone and I was blind...the salt solution burned my eyes. The nurses were mortified from what my mom tells me, said I looked like Freddy Kruger. I had to have a lung transplant because my right lung was too burned up to function right. I was taken home, eventually my scars cleared up but I never got my sight back. I'm glad in a way that I couldn't see, after what my mom had done to me I could never look her in the eye anyway and hold back the contempt. Time passed, I'm 22 and married with a sweet baby of my own. My son Tristan came to me on February 27,2002 and was perfectly healthy. I have also had surgery on my eyes, my vision is blurry but I can see a world my mother never intended me to see. /Becca
