Sounds like you haven’t stepped away at all from the ‘emotion’ of the issue.

I'm not sure anyone can. Clearly, passions run high on both sides and I think you'd pretty much have to be dead not to have emotions about the issue.

Here’s a little clue:

Look at abortion from the viewpoint of population statistics and specific demographics. Look at its effect on the age demographics and then link it to the last three decades of raiding the Social Security Trust Fund.

It’s not pretty.

Abortion as an issue is a lot larger than you could ever imagine and that perspective is held without a shred of ‘emotion’.

Here’s unemotional clue #2.

Fact 1: It is widely reported that the vast majority of women want to have children if conditions are ‘right’, meaning there is a sense of security and stability.

Fact 2: Many abortions are decided on the basis of a lack of security and stability, meaning economic reasons. Other reasons are age, physical health and political views. But most decisions are economic in nature.

Fact 3: Nick Rockefeller has been said to brag that it was his family that was behind the women’s lib movemment with the aim of forcing women into the workplace and out of the home where they would otherwise raise children.

Fact 4: GW Bush’s tax cuts have percentagewise been minimal; taxes are still at historically high levels.

There are more facts but these may suffice. Put these facts together, what do you see?
