In case you missed it, I'm intensely cynical about whether many self declared 'pro-lifers' really want to do anything about abortion. It's a great issue to martial the troops.

Then you have made me cynical of anything you say about Christians and pro lifers because I know them up front and personal, from the group homes that take in preganant girls to the people that collect the money to support them and their babies.

You probably know different 'pro-lifers' from me. The pro-lifers I know run on pro-life platforms for the Senate and are scared 5h17less Bush will nominate a strict constructionist for the USSC, lest they have to stick by the principles they run on every six years.

Me, I had a daughter born at 33 weeks gestation. I saw kids in the preemie ward who had been born at 24 weeks, well within the second trimester. You don't need to instruct me on killing babies.

We got a lot of schemes to stick Genesis into the biology curriculum, but surprisingly little of any effectiveness to stop abortion. Yeah, we got little old ladies doing prayer vigils outside Planned Parenthood in Lincoln, and more power to them, but the GOP is scared to do anything but rattle sabers on the subject. And you know it as well as I do.
