Allow non-doctors to perform abortions, including a dentist, a social worker, or a health care practitioner.

Umm...my opposition to abortion aside, I don't trust a dentist to fiddle around in my mouth for too long, much less tinker with my insides. And social workers? Really? Because, they've done such great work of late?

But, but, but... I thought the whole rationale for the Roe v Wade decision was to eliminate the use of the unqualified abortionist?!

Fact check: If you follow the link in the article to the actual text of the bill, there is absolutely nothing there to suggest that dentists or social workers would acquire authority to perform abortions. I think Michelle has been suckered into believing some hysterical rantings that aren’t based on fact. Probably somebody, somewhere figured out that various provisions in existing law might allow social workers and dentists, under certain circumstances, to prescribe or dispense the “morning after pill”. The idea that the state legislature would even consider a bill that authorized social workers and dentists to perform surgical abortions, or even RU-486 abortions, is ludicrous on its face.

And social workers?

Social Workers are generally pretty lousy at their real job. Perform an abortion? He's got to be kidding, right? . . . Right?
