[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It’s brilliant.  It is the point at which most people agree.  Prolife won’t agree to anything but I am a Republican woman from a long line of republican women (from the north, all college educated) and I want abortion legal but not unfettered.   This will force democrats to own that some of them want unlimited abortion.  By 15 weeks you know — that is 3 plus months in— so this means that after 15 weeks it’s off limits.  But after that, the baby should have the chance.   But this is about flushing out the liars and extremists in the pro abortion lobby.  12 is too soon, 20 is too late.  15 is the sweet spot and it’s going to have an impact.[/quote]

Abortion has never been "unfettered" in the US. Never. Not even for a day.

People seek out abortions after 20 weeks because of fetal anomalies, because of danger to the mother's health. These are tragedies. And Americans are smart enough to know that. There is no pandemic of women 20+ weeks pregnant, or even 15+ weeks pregnant, deciding willy-nilly to end their pregnancy.

The vast majority of abortions happen in the first trimester.

You'd like to force women to go through 40 weeks of carrying a fetus that is going to die upon birth. Or force a woman to carry a doomed fetus until it is about to kill her, rather than letting her terminate at a much safer point for herself and her future fertility. And Americans who care about women aren't any having any of it.

YOU are the extremist here.[/quote]
