That's different from the current pro-abort view, which includes a provision for the "health" of the mother--in other words, whatever the "doctor" and the "mother" say is a health issue: depression, hangnail, heel blister . . .

If it included a provision for the life of the mother, even I could possibly go along with it. This is the position of many Orthodox Jews. It's permissible to save the life of the mother.

Plus it would put a wedge into the whole "health of the mother debate," even for non-partial-birth abortion.

There is no time when the "life of the mother" requires partial birth abortion (really infanticide), yet Rudy take a stand against that. It's a bogus issue. The pro-aborts then fall back on the "health of the mother" issue, which sounds very similar to the poorly-informed, but allows almost any excuse.

I'll say it again: How can this "great crime fighter" Rudy Giuliani waffle on infanticide? How about it, Rudy? How about it, Rudy-lovers?
