    Anonymous posters are total chickenshits

    can anonymous posters use an ID so that it's clear which anonymous poster we're blasting?

    the lack of an exception for health of the mother makes it clear that anti-abortion christians only see women as petri dishes with legs. if women didn't give birth to boys, i don't think they'd care - it's worth killing a few women if it will save the life of the next brett favre.

    also, is this a ploy to increase early-term abortions? creating a rising abortion rate to inflame the right wing ladykillers and pass legislation curtailing this alarming trend?
