I will stand by my very first reaction when I first heard about "partial birth abortion" and it't this:
Picture if you will, this sceanario: Hello,is this the ASPCA? Hey,well my neighbor is in his garage, and as his dogs puppies are being born, he's forcing them to be born "paws" first & before the head is out, he sticks a screwdriver in their heads and mashes the brains, and then they come out dead"
how do you think THAT would play in the press?
He would be prosecuted for doing it, no doubt.
