    I said I fully support a woman's right to an abortion at the early stages. And certainly at three weeks. As the mother of a soon to be fertile daughter, I absoultely defend the right to terminate a pregnancy that is wrong for her. (Which would be true if she were 16).

    My reservations are about late term abortions. I get turned off by pro-choice rhetoric that is fighting hard to allow women to terminate a pregnancy when the fetus might be viable.

    But, my moral and material support for the pro-choice movement is eroded by some of the battles they pick.
