The insecurity you mention might be the key. I've noticed that the abortLibs become almost hysterical at the idea of any restrictions whatsoever on abortion. For example, I showed my friend reports about a number of clinics that were incompetent, almost criminally so, putting women's lives at risk. She simply didn't want to believe that was possible! One thing I am glad about, though. She does support banning so-called partial-birth abortion. She recognizes it as outright murder.

That's awesome! I was talking with a friend of mine a couple of years ago and she mentioned that she voted for Gore because "he'd done so much for the environment". I said I voted for Bush because he was against PBA, whereas Gore is for it. She just shuffled her feet and said nothing. I asked her if she knew what PBA was and how they do it (on the off chance that she didn't know anything about it). She was a nursing student, so I wasn't surprised when she said she did. I'm just surprised that it didn't make her rethink her choice. She and I haven't discussed politics since, though we're still friends.

I'm glad to hear that some Liberals have a couple of neurons still intact. Hopefully she'll change her opinion on abortion altogether someday.
