Now, as to the point. I said the concern that an exemption for the health of the woman would not reduce the number of those abortions, just reassign the reason, was valid. You say not. If you can handle another multi-paragraph post, please explain to me why.

I've walked around this post twice and still don't see what's at stake. You clearly think I misunderstood your original point but, for the life of me, I can't understand what about my own response was off target.

I may have to go get that beer with the warrior.

I think, however, after reading it again, we are, as someone once said on another SI thread, vigorously agreeing. I doubt three or four lengthy paragraphs will bring us closer.

So I think that the lifers resistance to the exemption is apt.

The partial birth abortion question is a difficult one for the lifers


I like that "lifer" term especially in that context.

Let's call each other lifers and deathers.
