The logical conclusion from this is that she is against the government banning abortion in the first and possibly second tri-mester.

The way I read it, she is against the federal government banning abortion in any instance except for third-trimester abortions. She would let individual states ban first and second tri-mester abortions if they wish (in an overturn of Roe v. Wade).

"So, for instance, I've tended to agree with those who do not favor federal funding for abortion, because I believe that those who hold a strong moral view on the other side should not be forced to fund it."

She's not saying that she is on the other side, she's saying that of the two sides in the debate those on the pro-life side should not be forced to finance those on the abortion side.

That was exactly my point to another poster. It was a comment taken out of context.
