Less than Two Feet away from Life

Seven times I have accomplished the monumental task of moving less than ten pounds less than two feet. I have come to realize that basically, that's what childbirth is.

It is tragic to think that's what separates far too many viable babies from living versus dying. Less than two feet.

The harshest aspect is that -- if only figuratively -- there is a window into this world that those preborn can see. Their mother's cervix has been dilated -- all that has to happen is for them not to be killed before they travel through the birth canal. But they are not allowed to even try.

Should they somehow slip through, they are considered a mistake, a botched attempt. And there are some -- including the man who resides in the White House -- who thinks they should be set aside and left to die.

Or worse -- immediately tossed into a bag and placed in the trash. A young mother in Florida whose child was delivered before the abortion doctor had a chance to kill it, had to watch in horror as a clinic worker did just that.

Why would a worker do this? How could she have such a callous disregard -- like the man in the White House -- to think that the smallest and weakest among us are nothing more than trash?

Even if you accept the premise (which I don't) that

I love when the pro-aborts bring up the one-in-a-gazillion case where the preborn's head is over-sized enough that a caesarean is needed to deliver alive, so instead it's necessary to crush the skull and abort it.

Yeah, that extremely rare situation (which again, is actually a choice where the mother doesn't want the "burden" of a child with special needs, not really the burden of pregnancy) justifies the 20 thousand or so post-viability abortions.
