Naut.......
Since you asked what a partial birth abortion was.........
Partial-birth abortion (PBA) is a non-medical term used to refer to some late-term abortion procedures.[2] In the United States, "Partial-birth abortion" has been legally defined by federal statute as any abortion in which the fetus is extracted "past the navel [of the fetus] . . . outside the body of the mother," or "in the case of head-first presentation, the entire fetal head is outside the body of the mother," before the fetus is terminated.
How is it terminated??? Here's a description.........
In September, 1993, Brenda Pratt Shafer, a registered nurse with thirteen years or experience, was assigned by her nursing agency to an abortion clinic. Since Nurse Shafer considered herself "very pro-choice," she didn't think this assignment would be a problem. She was wrong. This is what Nurse Shafer saw:
" I stood at the doctor's side and watched him perform a partial-birth abortion on a woman who was six months pregnant. The baby's heartbeat was clearly visible on the ultrasound screen. The doctor delivered the baby's body and arms, everything but his little head. The baby's body was moving. His little fingers were clasping together. He was kicking his feet. The doctor took a pair of scissors and inserted them into the back of the baby's head, and the baby's arms jerked out in a flinch, a startle reaction, like a baby does when he thinks that he might fall. Then the doctor opened the scissors up. Then he stuck the high-powered suction tube into the hole and sucked the baby's brains out. Now the baby was completely limp. I never went back to the clinic. But I am still haunted by the face of that little boy. It was the most perfect, angelic face I have ever seen."

Corbin,
I think you're being far too charitable. This is just a typical politician at work! But I need to know something else, that I, naive guy that I am, do not quite understand: what the hell is a 'partial birth abortion'??? Is that like some of you gets born, and some other parts get aborted? Like, get rid of the legs, for example? Or maybe just the ears? 'Cause they're too big and flappy? Can you enlighten me on this issue?
