More Abortion Bulls***

President George W. Bush signed a partial-birth abortion ban into law, but no sooner had his ink dried, when a federal judge overturned it. Partial-birth abortion is a third trimester abortion technique which involves partially delivering the baby breach (feet first) with only the head left undelivered. The baby is held there (alive, moving, and with full feeling) and a pair of surgical scissors are jammed into the base of the infant’s skull. The scissors are then opened, and rotated to create an opening. The scissors are removed, and suction is applied, sucking out the infant’s brain. The skull is then easily collapsed and the corpse can be fully delivered.

The federal judge said the reason for the injunction was because there was no exception allowing the procedure in the event it was necessary to save the life of the mother.

Newsflash: if the mother is about to die, why would you take the time to fire up the ultrasound (needed for finding the infant’s foot so it can be grabbed by forceps and yanked out), partially deliver the baby, jam the scissors into its skull, fire up the suction device, slurp out its brains, then crush its skull and complete the delivery? You WOULDN’T. If the mother’s life is in danger, and the baby needs to be out NOW, a doctor can literally perform an emergency C-section in 30 seconds. There is no circumstance when the mother’s need to kill her baby is greater than her need to live.
