Are you refering to the event/word born?

Anyway, come on -- enlighten me.

You finally got it.

One has to be born in order to be a person in the eyes of common law.

This, in turn, means that 5th and 14th Amendment arguments are worthless for stopping abortion, as the underlying common law doesn't support the use of the 5th and 14th Amendments for that purpose.

Instead, you're going to have to get that put into statutory law.

Gonzales can be relied on to not argue that statutory law doesn't mean what it says, or that "penumbras and emanations" of various portions of the Constitution actually exist.

Note this: when your organization finds itself arguing on the same side as Planned Parenthood, NARAL, and NOW against Gonzalez, you're raising questions as to the sincerity of your pro-life stance...
