My view on partial birth abortion:
Well, which part was birthed?
I guess if it was just a toe or a finger I would be ok with it. Even if a whole arm or a leg was out I could see why the Doctor would justify shooting the pronged baby sucker up the chute to finish it off, but once the head is out, no way, I'm sorry no.
well, maybe... But you're opening a pandora's box when you get into that kind of a thing, then we have to decide whether actual life starts after birth, which is pretty much the accepted view, or is it sometime after the first breath of air, and I think if we keep squabbling over that, those damn conservatives are gonna run behind our back and declare life to begin 10000 years ago when god created it, and then we're going to end up with kooky things like the word god in our pledge of allegiance, and that would be wrong.
