not really - it is anecdotal. I'm asking if you really think the abortion debate has changed? Or the impact. As I showed you, the actual numbers (while still horrific) have been steadily going down for the past 10 years, and the percent of American in support/opposed to abortion remains steady of 25 years. I just don't see it.

You really think the continuing slaughter of the unborn is anecdotal? I don't. I look at a picture of an aborted fetus and it pricks my conscience. It affects me the same way watching people jump off the world trade center affected me. I'm glad the numbers have gone down, but the pro-abort crowd still pushes there agenda and they are well funded. I want to see the people I elected bring the abortion issue to a debate in the house. The Republicans already compromised on the stem cell debate while claiming victory. Do you think there is much of a chance they will work hard for pro-lifers to introduce a bill to ban partial-birth and other forms of abortion? I seriously doubt it.

Absolutely! 'Anecdotal' is a technical term in analysis. It means that the evidence is not rigorous or scientific, but is instead testimonial in nature. It is not a description of importance.
