I respect your right to your opinion, however, could you explain to me why someone as informed as you would take sides on such an important issue as this based on the behavior of persons on an internet forum instead of careful consideration of the facts and moral issues? You must know that there is no such thing as a free lunch. Just as taxpayers pay for the welfare recipients monthly support, personal decisions we make in life have a cost that may not be apparent at first. If a women is having problems getting pregnant and goes to a fertility Dr., the first or second thing the Dr. will ask is if she has had an abortion. If the male sees a urologist because he cannot get his mate pregnant, the first or second thing he is going to ask is if his mate has had an abortion. I know this because I have been there. You need to discover for yourself why the Drs. are asking that question if legal abortions are so safe. My quick answer to this is there is no free lunch, break a law of nature, and nature will extract it's punishment, but find out for yourself what women are not being told before they have the procedure and why.
We are supposed to be discussing the link between breast cancer and abortion. Why are you wasting your time grandstanding about your liberated view of abortion in general and your open mindedness about all things and then on the other hand talking about dropping a dime on some one with whom you disagree with? Don't you have any other excitement in your life? The thing that separates republicans from democrats in my opinion is that they stand for something, not just everything. Based on my limmited knowledge of your position, I think you might be happier if you switched political parties. It kind of reminds me of dissatisfied Catholics who instead of simply changing religions, they attack the church in the name of "reform".It makes me question the motive of their reform cause. The reality of the situation is that the republican party in the US will (100% certain) cease to exist if they toss off thier pro-life plank. The same with the second amendment. If the democrats want to eliminate the republicans as a political force, all they would have to do is change their stance on abortion and gun control, then the republicans will fade faster than a speeding bullet.
As I have been saying, there is a taxpayer supported abortion industry out there that pretends to be the friend of women. There is no other medical procedure that I know of that can be performed without the Drs. first disclosing the potential risks no matter how small, even if the evidence that the risk exists is not fully known or only suspected. Abortion is the an exception in that regard. Someday, the trial lawyers are going to get on this for the profit potential and for their greed and assuming that the greed of the lawyers is more powerful than that of the abortion industry, the abortion indusrty will fade into oblivion- with not much help from the pro-life movement.

Cute. What's next? You're going to scream "RINO"?
One-issue screaming windbags have lost a lot of credibility in my mind.
I'm a Broken Glass Republican. I support whomever interests me the most in the primaries and then it's straight-ticket Republican in the general...No exceptions EVER! I've always been "Agnostic" on the subject of abortion. Meaning, I trust those who I vote for to make the right decisions...Whatever those decisions might be.
But...
One-Issue freaks like those on this thread have done something to me that I thought could NEVER happen...Consider calling myself "Pro-Choice". Which I am not. The main reason being I can't stand the thought of aligning myslef with ANYTHING "Liberal". It literally disgusts me. But the people on this thread have proven themselves to be as shrill as ANY "Liberal" I've ever seen.
That's a sad commentary, in my opinion. Personally, I prefer the tactic of changing hearts and minds. Not killing "Abortionists" and calling women who have had abortions "Murderers".
OK...Now call me a "Liberal" here ----->
