To: George W. Bush

Dear George W. Bush,

Actually considering that the South Dakota ban made no exceptions for rape or incest, the 44% that the referendum garnered was pretty amazing.

I think that a referendum putting forth a bill banning abortion in the cases of life of the mother, rape, and incest, would easily get more than 50% in South Dakota. Throw in severe fetal deformity, and it'd likely top 60%.

I know that Gallup has done polls asking the question nationally, should abortion be restricted to cases of rape, the incest, life of the mother, and severe fetal deformity, and they've seen positive responses in the high 50%s and into the 60%s.

I think after a period of perhaps a decade after overturning Roe, most states would have laws that were approximately that restrictive.

I think you make some very good points on how middle America would deal with abortion if it was returned to the states.

But the liberal northeast and CA would go even further than they have currently.
