[11th Earl of Mar]

Our tax dollars at work.

You won't get very far arguing that the government is wasting money in this case.

An abortion is much cheaper than is the alternative, which is several days in intensive care before death.

Even I support the abortion in this case. But, I don't support the govt. fitting the bill.

[Havisham]

Abortion would not be cheaper. The family could take the baby home to die, which only strikes me as what I would want if it were my family.

What few here seem to understand is that our military surgeons have heroically held the line against performing elective abortions despite unrelenting pressure from Congress and the judiciary.
