But if the hospital which treats you provides abortion, then the money you pay them subsidizes abortion, and you are culpable... Nice try, but there is no real distinction. You are willing to support such a facility as long as you benefit (in this case, from receiving the medical care you need.) It may not be a financial benefit, but you are supporting an abortion provider so you can benefit. That is just as hypocritical as you accuse Frist of being. IF you are going to hold to your principles as closely as you claim, you should only avail yourself of medical services that have no relationship to any possible abortion activity.
