I was watching some news show and the hosts were proclaiming how pro-abortion the country was.

Nothing these days would surprise me, but I'm sure they employed a little fudgery with the numbers and categories. One can spin "opposed to abortion except in some cases" to suggest a position in favor of it under certain circumstances. And sometimes, they just use bad information.

A poll asking just why one is for or against abortion rights--including the legal distinctions--might make for a more interesting gauge of public opinion.

Nope. They will simply bury it.
