In 2000, the Democratic platform said the party’s goal was “to make abortion less necessary and more rare.”

Democrats have a hard time reconciling their logic on anything but one wonders just what they consider to be "necessary abortions.!?!"

Abortion Statistics - Decision to Have an Abortion (U.S.)

· 25.5% of women deciding to have an abortion want to postpone childbearing

· 21.3% of women cannot afford a baby

· 14.1% of women have a relationship issue or their partner does not want a child

· 12.2% of women are too young (their parents or others object to the pregnancy)

· 10.8% of women feel a child will disrupt their education or career

· 7.9% of women want no (more) children

· 3.3% of women have an abortion due to a risk to fetal health

2.8% of women have an abortion due to a risk to maternal health

So how many women’s lives have been saved by abortion?

Less than 3% of abortions since 1972 were reported to be “due to a risk to maternal health.” A reasonable person would recognize that not all of those cases represent a lethal risk. But let’s say they did. That means that nearly 45 million fetuses were butchered to save the lives of about 1.3 million women. Or put another way; 35 babies are killed to save each woman.

And if the d@mned Leftists courts had kept out, the fifty State legislatures could have made some accommodation for the 2.8%.

We have allowed lawmaking to slip from our hands and into the Judicial and Executive branches.

This will not end well.
