I understand the argument, but I'm a realist. There are situations so traumatic that a pregnancy would be difficult. Then there's the practical side of me which says that to get the rape exception, a woman should have to report that rape within 48 hours. That way there's a really good chance the person commiting the rape will be caught.

It will also assure authorities that the claims of rape are valid.

I didn't give any argument by analogy. Moreover, only a fool would say that argument by analogy is useless.

That's not a valid palindrome.

I worked in the field of Maternal and Infant Care for a half century. Get back to me when you can say the same.

Twenty of those years were in a NICU setting, where the size child that you seem to so casually want to discard are able to survive and bring joy to their parents.

There are couples in America who go all over the world to adopt children, while other Americans discard potential Steve Jobs every day.

Allowing government into the decision of whether or not a woman carries a child or not is a mistake.

I see. Do you support legalized abortion on demand, at any point in gestation, for any reason or for no reason at all, with no opportunity for the father to protect his child?

At least it's not a Palin-drone.

What I said was keep government out of that issue. While that will cause some events you and I disagree with, letting government in the arena assures far worse events on a vastly larger scale.

What government subsidizes, government gets - abortion is a case in point. The Dr. Gosnells nad Planned Parenthood are largely government funded. Defund ‘em, NOW!

Turns out the Founders did understand the limits of government.

PS Judeo-Christian law was predicated upon the child being the property of the parent, not Big Gubment.

No law can eliminate evil, but Big Gubment usually produces more evil than it prevents when it is allowed out of its Constitution defined bounds.

“Twenty of those years were in a NICU setting, where the size child that you seem to so casually want to discard are able to survive and bring joy to their parents.”

“Seem”???

Things are not what you ‘seem’ to assume I said. I tried to make a case for not allowing government to tax all for the provision of abortions to those unwilling to pay for their own wants, like abortion.

Again, your beliefs (or mine, either) are not controlling of how another decides whether or not to carry and birth a baby.

Least of all should you or I be taxed to pay for abortions for a third party, especially when a mere AgencyPerson is in the decision making loop.

If you have ever watched a woman carry and deliver a child, note the “deliver a child”, how an you want to force a woman to undergo that if she:
1. Does not want to carry and deliver the child she was forced to conceive.
2. Does not have a husband ready and willing to be a supportive and caring father for the child, not to mention a husband to her.

I was addressing these words of yours, particularly the ones I have underlined, which do not mention who is footing the bill for an abortion.

That is repugnant, demonic, evil, and inconsistent with a free Republic.

As someone with half a century of experience in this area, are you saying you are unaware that Big Gubment is paying for many abortions and sending the bill to us?

I wish FR would ban those like this pro-infanticide “conservative.” We don’t need them here, especially now with the GOPe voting like the RNC. We can’t have more people peeing in the conservative pool.

I don’t know about banning for opinion, How about banning for incoherence? GladesGuru could not follow a dialogue.
