On the first day, we assisted in some first-trimester abortions, which is all I'd expected to be involved in. (I remember that one of the patients was a 15-year-old-girl who was having her third abortion.)...

On the second day, I saw Dr. Haskell do a second-trimester procedure ...Then he used forceps to pull apart the baby inside the uterus, bringing it out piece by piece and piece, throwing the pieces in a pan...

I was present for three of these partial-birth procedures...The mother was six months pregnant (26 1/2 weeks)... and she cried the whole time...

Dr. Haskell brought the ultrasound in and hooked it up so that he could see the baby. On the ultrasound screen, I could see the heart beating...

Dr. Haskell went in with forceps and grabbed the baby's legs and pulled them down into the birth canal. Then he delivered the baby's body and the arms-- everything but the head...The baby's little fingers were clasping and unclasping, and his feet were kicking. Then the doctor stuck the scissors through the back of his head, and the baby's arms jerked out in a flinch, a startle reaction, like a baby does when he thinks that he might fall.

The doctor opened up the scissors, stuck a high-powered suction tube into the opening and sucked the baby's brains out. Now the baby was completely limp. I was really completely unprepared for what I was seeing. I almost threw up as I watched the doctor do these things.

I don't know if I've ever read anything more horrific than this first-hand account of these procedures: it's simply unbelievable that our society could allow and sanction such procedures.  Nowhere in the local papers I read have I read about the details of these procedures like in this account: almost everything I've read has been presented as for or against a women's right to choose. Supporters of such procedures are fighting a dubious battle: they have long ago allowed their dubious political aims mare their sound judgment.

This may sound strange but I'm glad you posted that horrific account. This is what's it's about. I cannot believe that even people who believe in abortion could sanction this.

We have to put an end to all abortion; this will at least save some.

And chances are, you won't see it in the papers because the left is afraid of the truth.

Once a long long time ago when I was young and completely stupid I bought their crap. Luckily at that time I had an open mind and was willing to hear the truth from those who knew the real story. The more I learned and listened, the more disgusted I was. Abortion is wrong.

Why do you think the left spends so much time at college campus'. Because those kids will buy into their lies and vote for them. They don't know and understand the truth, which is one reason why educating the public is so important.
