27. Disagree that 'these decisions are driven by the American voting public'.
If that were true, we wouldn't be facing a possible overturning of Roe vs. Wade as the majority say to leave it alone. Well, maybe, if the public hadn't be duped/conned/or cheated, they won't have 'elected' Bush and then he couldn't have stacked the Supreme Court, so maybe you can say that these things are decided by voters.

All I'm saying is that people everyday say that women can't be trusted to make their own personal decisions regarding their reproductive organs. Everyday, people say they shouldn't have the right to make that decision. And I say that is sexist. Regardless if its a man or woman who says it. This was a fun thread and I'm not putting my suggestion up for a vote. It's just the reverse of today's reality. Women are under attack by those who want to make decisions about reproduction for them. And the only way I'm going to let that happen is over my cold, dead body!

This is my compromise for those that want all abortions made illegal.
