Actually, this drug prevents an embryo from attaching to the uterine wall, this results in the abortion/death of the embryo. The entire question about abortion has always centered upon whether life begins at conception or birth. If you believe (as most conservatives do) that life begins at conception, then "Plan B" is abortion.

So if a woman can't get the prescription, she may well let several weeks go by and then get a later, surgical abortion if she does turn out to be pregnant. I'm not sure why that's progress, frankly.

And you have described precisely one of the contraceptive effects possible with use of ordinary birth control pills (and, I might add, only one of the contraceptive effects possible with use of Plan B) -- prevention of implantation in the uterine wall. Do you believe that use and distribution of regular birth control pills should be legally curtailed?
