Suppose a perfectly healthy woman were carrying twins. It is the third trimester and all tests show the twins to be perfectly healthy. The mother's obstetrician assures her that there is minimal risk--this pregancy for twins is as serene as any he has seen in 40 years of practice.

Now suppose an abortionist reviews the charts and performs a partial birth-abortion anyway. When asked why he did this to a healthy mother and healthy twins he shrugs his shoulders and says, "I know she and the twins looked healthy but in my opinion she would have died had she taken them to term."

You would not hold the abortionist accountable. You wouldn't even permit him to be second-guessed. You support giving the abortionist free license to murder on whim as long as he mouths the magic words: "life of the mother."

"You would not hold the abortionist accountable."

Kevin, don't put words in my mouth, then attack me for something I never said...it's old already.

The abortionist would go to jail if he or she can't prove that the original doctor's opinion was wrong.

And BTW, the kind of scumbag you keep talking about will perform the abortion even if all kinds of abortions were made illegal in the US.

So, seeing that we can't stop these scumbags you are so fond of holding up as examples of the medical profession, we should not pass any anti-abortion laws at all?

He better be able to prove it without a doubt.. otherwise he is going to jail and will have one hell of a malpractice suit
