...according to the very pro-abortion Alan Guttmacher Institute, 34 million abortions took place from 1973 to 1996. That's a million and a half per year. Who knows what genius men and women were whooshed away from our midst and with them what art, what music, what inventions, what cures. The only solace--and it is slight--is the knowledge that the great majority of these were aborted by Leftist mothers, and hence the potential growth in numbers of the Left has been reduced.
Of course, that's still not enough to justify murder, but it's something.

I often had the same thought. It's about as comforting as an ice pillow, but I know what you mean--that the murderers are murdering themselves out of existence.

The 'leftist's', the hard core type of woman only comprise about 10 to 15% of those who abort. The vast majority of women are those who would sit next to you at a doctor's office, on a bus or at church.
Most women who abort are terminating their first pregnancy, usually around the age of 19 to 21. This is the age at which most women used to bear their first child.
Nope, don't think it's mostly 'leftist's' because it's not.

You make it sound like liberalism is genetic.
