This issue is but one small portion of the problem. This issue deals with a woman's right to know. Informed consent. A consumer rights question. Why is this so hard to understand?

You're right, of course. Women should indeed be told about whatever risks may exist. I was only addressing the issue of action designed to discourage abortions. I believe the focus in that effort should be on the brutality and evil of the abortion itself, because this approach has proven to be much more effective.

"Why is this so hard to understand?"

For a liberal? These are the same people who question reality itself. Start there, and you'll begin to understand, at least as far as is possible to "understand" the lunatic left. Some are complete skeptics against reality (skeptic tanks).

I once was talking with a guy about why we are going to war with Iraq. Of course, being a clueless liberal, he stated oil (ignoring the fact that his car needed oil and gas to drive him to work that day) and American imperialism (ignoring the fact that Iraq attacked Kuwait and is violating their terms of surrender) as our entire motive. Somehow he switched over onto the subject of reality and told me that "we can't even know" if the desk that was sitting next to us is real or not. I knew then that no matter how reasoned my arguements were, I was not going to get through to planet mars on this occassion.
