What baby at 2 months is a "living breathing infant"? What baby at 3 months is this? In fact what stage in pregnancy do baby's have lungs? The 25th week. And at what age do babies reason, you know reason based on logic to make choices. I would assume that starts somewhere in the 130ish week....after pregnancy.
So what have we learned today? Your opinions and wishful thinking doesnt count as fact in your hopes to win an argument.
hno:
just think of it this way. all your forecasting has predicted that there will be say 10 million new babies born this year. you conclusively know that if 10 million new babies were born that the earth would fall apart structurally due to overpopulation in 2100 instead of 2200 if you aborted all of the babies.
the evangelical like zit would sacrifice the 100 years to save the 10 million babies. thats the basis of my point.
the right thinks now, are emotional driven and dont think logically.

I don't know why I bother replying to the resident ignoramus on here.
Here's a clue idiot: If abortion were illegal, there wouldn't be near
the amount of pregnancies. Teen-age girls for example wouldn't be
using abortion as birth-control, and getting 4,6,8+ abortions at
tax-payer expense.

As pro-life demonstrators conduct their annual March for Life event in Washington, D.C., today to protest the 32nd anniversary of the Roe V. Wade Supreme Court decision, a new study was released showing the procedure is increasingly being used as birth control by women who have had live births before. According to a study by Janice Shaw Crouse of the Beverly LaHaye Institute, abortion is no longer represented by a frightened young teenager faced with a first pregnancy. Instead, Crouse reports teen abortions are declining, while abortion is increasingly being used as a method of birth control among women beyond their teen years.

Also, the number of women having repeat abortions is increasing (some with four or more), and more abortions are being performed on women who have previously had a live birth.
The report finds while abortion is up among older women, due to the decline among teens, the total number of abortions per year has declined.
"After the Supreme Court's 1973 decision in Roe v. Wade, the number of abortions increased dramatically, and then remained consistently high throughout the 1980s at over 1.55 million abortions annually," writes Crouse. "Finally, in 1990 the number of annual abortions reached a high of 1.6 million. The trend then reversed and a significant decline followed throughout the 1990s. The total number of abortions declined by nearly 300,000 during that decade (a 19 percent decrease), reaching a new low of 1.31 million in 2000."
The analysis points out teenage abortions are less than one-fifth of the total:
"Teenage abortions now are less than one-fifth, 19 percent, of the total number. Women over age 20 get 80 percent of all abortions with nearly half (48 percent) going to women age 25 and older."
The report takes a look at the number of repeat abortions, finding a steady increase over the years.
"The number of women having repeat abortions is increasing," states the analysis. "As time has passed from the imposition of abortion, two related but countervailing trends have emerged. The number of women who choose abortion for the first time has decreased very steadily. However, the number of repeat abortions has been increasing.
"In the early 1980s, about one-third of abortions were performed on women who had previously had an abortion. By the late '90s, more than 45 percent of abortions were being performed on women who had had previous ones."
The report also highlights the fact that women who have had live births are now a higher percentage of those having abortions.
Writes Crouse: "Abortions being performed on women who have previously had a live birth are increasing. From less than 42 percent in 1980, the share of abortions accounted for by women with children increased to 60 percent of the total by 2000. Women who had not previously had a live birth accounted for 90 percent of the decline in the number of abortions from 1990 to 2000, even though this category accounted for less than half of all abortions in 1990. To put it another way: Women aborting their first pregnancy now account for only 40 percent of all abortions."
All bickering aside, at least 1.2 million abortions in the U.S. alone take place every year.
I don't care what anyone says, there is not one elected official or otherwise who will ever end that.
You are just going to go nuts spending time thinking about it. Liberalism, conservatism. It doesnt matter. In fact, the abortion rate was at an all time high during the Reagan admin.

the argument of saving the world for the next hundred years doesn't make much sense to me. you care about the people who might be alive in a 100 years so much that you'd be willing to wipe out the live of millions of unborn?
a recent study i read stated that by the year 2040 the majority of this country is going to be made up of minorities. this country will find itself mired in a civil war in the next 50 years. i'd be more worried about that than people having an earth to stand on in a 100 years.

well this is going to get Nancy's granny panties in a bunch...
Contraceptives measure stripped from Obama's $825bn economic plan
• Obama set to meet with congressional Republicans today
• Contraceptives funding would have added $200m to bill

Ahead of a meeting this afternoon with Republicans opposed to his $825bn economic stimulus plan, Barack Obama has asked congressional Democrats to remove a measure funding family planning for poor women from the legislation.
Republicans object to the spending, particularly on projects they believe will not have an immediate impact, and have proposed further tax cuts for small businesses and individuals.
"Most of my members believe if you put money straight in the hands of individuals and businesses, that will have a quicker stimulative effect than having the government spend it on projects, particularly ones that are likely to spend out in year three and year four," the Republican leader in the Senate, Mitch McConnell of Kentucky, said yesterday.

Here's a clue, Zit: The article you posted does not say that teen-age girls are using abortions for birth-control, and it also does not mention anything about the influence of abortion on the number of pregnancies.
Those who actually read the articles they post have a clear advantage... ;-)
This has to be the best story that i ever read. What a gifted doctor this man is. To read what he did when the baby grabbed his hand made my whole body melt from head to toe. Read it a second time and it was even better. Some people are just more greedy than other's zit my friend. I enjoy your read's.
