I've got a stupid question; How does delivering a live baby vs. a dead baby at this late stage effect a mother's health one way or the other? If it's already half out of the womb, what difference does it make if it's alive and comes the rest of the way out of the womb?

I know it's all about choice. I just want to know how they defend the health & welfare of the mother issue.

somthing similar happened in Ireland, in 1983 the Irish People inacted the following amendment to our Constitution upholding the right to life of the unborn child:

BUNREACHT NA hÉIREANN

CONSTITUTION OF IRELAND

Enacted by the People 1st July, 1937

In operation as from 29th December, 1937

******

Eighth Amendment of the Constitution Act, 1983
[Acknowledged the right to life of the unborn, with due regard to the equal right to life of the mother.]

******

FUNDAMENTAL RIGHTS

Personal Rights

Article 40

******

3.3° The State acknowledges the right to life of the unborn and, with due regard to the equal right to life of the mother, guarantees in its laws to respect, and, as far as practicable, by its laws to defend and vindicate that right.

Nine years later we had the 'X-Case', in which a treacherous supreme court judge overruled the democratic will of the people.

Although I avoid revving-up pro-abortion advocates because it just a waste of breath, if I have to engage, I always ask if the mass of humanity that they call a fetus is only that until ALL of the baby's body is removed intact and undamaged then what is stopping them from banning baby showers or using any speech that utilizes the term "baby"? Are they going to outlaw sonograms? Outlaw memorial services for miscarriages? Will the question "When is the baby due?" be outlawed in favor of "When does the fetus come to term?" Will they create a new mental condition called "abortion procrastination."

The intellectual dishonesty to be heard at their rally's celebrating "choice" is so sickening as to illustrate the complete moral bankruptcy of the left. Pro-choice sounds like a question of whether to buy a Pepsi or a Coke. Pro-decision would be more appropriate but of course would be total anathema to the pro-abortion crowd because it implys a thought process that recognises the "choice" as being a serious one.

So if a pro-choice liberal is expecting within days, ask them if they plan to have the baby or make a last-minute decision to have the docter deliver the baby 3/4's of the way followed by twitching feet as they crush the baby's skull with their over-sized forceps.

PS: our local newspaper publishes at noon daily and had at the top not only the overturning of the PBA law but also a smiling picture of Hamilton and her quote that said the law did not ensure a woman's right to choice.
