I'll give you a little background. My oldest daughter was a very, very
premature baby, that is the correct term. She was born at 28 weeks of
gestation. Her APGAR score at birth was 1. The first time I held her I
held here in my hand, yes the singular form is appropriate, because she
was that small. Now 16 years later she is attending a magnet high
school, she had to test into it (300 of 12,000 9th graders were
accepted). She is driving and she is looking into which college she
wants to attend.

It is going to be extremely difficult for anyone to tell me that
abortion is a choice or that it is a convenience.

There is nothing like a good old fashioned abortion discussion to fully
highlight the complete moral bankruptcy of the left. Not that I am being
critical, some of the funniest things you can read are posts where liberals
bend and contort to try to come up with defenses for abortion. Fun stuff!

Finally a reasonable point liberals can make to defend their abortion
stance! Our brains never developed, therefore we can abort as late in the
pregnancy as we wish!

Perhaps you should leave vacuous phrases like "complete moral bankruptcy
of the left" to the resident fools like Bert and immoderate.
