Then we hear the same side talking of the emotional toll abortions can have. Not to mention the monetary costs, and of course the potential physical ones as well. But no, it's avoiding any consequences to have an abortion.

And yes, an unwanted pregnancy is a denial of liberties. Rationalize it however you want, doesn't change what it is.

And for the record, I find abortion morally reprehensible. I wish there was no need for it in this world and would love nothing more than to see it abolished. I feel aborting an unwanted pregnancy is a cop out and should never be done just for that reason. I just do not feel it is the place of our government to do so and there are many steps we should take to decrease the needs for abortions that would do better for our country and protect out citizenry more than banning abortion.

I agree with your stance on abortion.  I ave said, repeatedly, that it is a horrible, horrible decision and if a woman has made that decision I cannot imagine the anguish she went through and will go through in the future.

I too wish there was no such thing.

However...

The group that usually want to ban all abortions also wants:  1) No sex education 2) No easy access to birth control in any form 3) No social services for children of poor parents.

They want "personal responsibility" they say.  Unless its taking the personal responsibility to be on birth control or to decide on an abortion.

And the even sadder part is I don't think 3/4 of those politicians who oppose really care except it helps get them votes.  Period.
