You cannot un-invent something. Banning abortion would not make it go away, all it would do is make women go south of the border and put themselfs at risk by backstreet and Mexican abortions.

Instead of arguing whether abortion should be banned or not (which is futile) they should spend more money on education and letting people know the choices they have or how to avoid getting pregnant in the first place. Free contraception in schools, the alternatives to abortion (adoption or Safe Haven).

Of course education is expensive where as standing there and saying I'm against abortion is a good way of buying votes.

I don't honestly expect many actually believe it ever will be made illegal or if it did if it would stop it completely... I mean for example murder is against the law, yet there are still 50,000 a year.

Now Terri Schiavo's body is as dead as her brain was those who have nothing better to do than tell others how they should live their lives need another bandwagon.

Things that really should be addressed over Terri Schiavo or abortion or whether the 10 commandments can be in a court house or gay marriage

Global warming
The Trillion dollar defeciet
No strategy on getting out of Iraq
The government misleading the country to go to war
Karl Rove leaking CIA agents name

If it was overturned, all that would mean is that it would be State issue, not a Federal issue, so no need to go south of the border, maybe just to another state.

The one that alwasys amuses me is the missing student that Fox seem to continually report on, talk about beating a dead horse.
