What is this, Newsmax? Why don't they just publish the original article instead of writing an "article about the article"? That said, the original story was revolting but informative. The thing that struck me most was the absolute selfishness of the patients - "I know I'm killing my baby, but if I don't my dress won't fit." Horrible.

"Groups and parties working for a new social order must include [abortion] in their programmes. No social system, no worker's democracy, no Socialist republic can operate successfully and maintain its ideals unless the practice of birth control is encouraged to a marked and efficient degree." -- Margaret Sanger, Founder of Planned Parenthood

(Woman And The New Race, Sanger, M., 1920, Brentano's Publishers, NY, p.148)

Speaking to the reporter, this young woman acknowledged that she understood that abortion is, at least in some sense, morally wrong. "There's things wrong with abortion," she commented. "But I want to have a good life. And provide a good life for my child."

Uh, which child is that, Miss? The one you hope to have someday, when it is convenient? Or the one you just paid to have sucked into a sink?

20,000 dead babies at $750 each is $15,000,000. That's probably the main consideration for Harrison. Of course some of that goes for expenses.

Harrison estimates that he has terminated at least twenty thousand pregnancies.

Some accomplishment.

One high school volleyball player "says she doesn't want to give up her body for nine months."

I was once a high school volleyball player and thought the exact same thing.

I learned the word NO, and I never had to worry about getting pregnant.

One thing the reporter left out of the picture inside the the abortionist's offfice was what happened to the murdered children's remains.

I just googled "Women and the New Race" by Margaret Sanger. After reading a few excerpts, I like the woman even more. I've said it and said it again, she wasn't pro abortion, she was pro birth control.

""While there are cases where even the law recognizes an abortion as justifiable if recommended by a physician, I assert that the hundreds of thousands of abortions performed in America each year are a disgrace to civilization.""




-Margaret Sanger

At $750 a go, Dr. Harrison can afford to buy his own morality.

Margaret Sanger never advocated abortion. She was not heroine to be sure, but she never did.

Being dishonest won't help our side.

Margaret Sanger was a Eugenics (sp?) freak...a Hitlerarian who wanted a Superior Race....that's why she started Planned Parenthood.

Yes I know that. But she never advocated abortion to those ends.

The nurse tells her that the fetus will not be completely formed until about the ninth week. "Yours is more like a chicken yolk," she asserts. "Then no," the girl said, "it's not a baby."

Liar. My wife is pregnant and I've seen the baby's beating heart, on an ulstrasound, at 7-1/2 weeks. It can start beating as early as 5 weeks. That's about 3 weeks after conception. How many chiken yolks have beating hearts? Liar.

"It's not a baby to me until the mother tells me it's a baby," he stated.

Wellllllllll, let's just throw out biology books, medical books, and his medical training and let teenagers tell him what that 'mass of tissue" is.

Liar indeed. But then, the entire abortion industry is built on lies. What is one more, especially if you stand to make a quick $750?

Congratulations on your baby. Your first?

This is why i am not pro-choice. I believe that a woman does have a right to making choices for her own body and I believe we should always have access to birth control and possibly a safe "morning after" pill(because I do not believe it is an abortion 12 hours after "possible" conception. But I will never be pro-choice as long as we allow abortions for such STUPID REASONS!
This is what most of us gripe about! I suppose I can see someone who wants an abortion because they are a crack addict or because they have been raped. But as long as there are no standards then it will be used continuously by the vain and the hard hearted.

I wish we could see a process by which each woman must watch an ultrasound of their baby and wait 24 hours.
I wish we had adoption advocates giving viable options more readily to these women.
I wish we still taught our sons to want pure brides, then maybe girls wouldn't feel the need to have sex!
