Let's not pretend that all abortions are about free love without consequences. There may be some, and they are reprehensible. Because of those, do you really want to ban an option for women (and men) who may be in dire circumstances? (NOT simply inconvenient circumstances).

In my opinion, it's a three question issue:

1) Can you think of any circumstances, ever, where an abortion might be warranted?

If "no", I respect your position, and will not argue with your principled and consistent stand as a non-hypocritical pro-life advocate.

If "yes", proceed to question 2.

2) If a woman finds herself in one of the dire circumstances you imagined in response to question 1, should she be required to explain her dire circumstances to a judge or other officer of the law, and be forced to live with that officer's decision as to whether the circumstances were truly dire enough?

If "no", you are pro-choice.

If "yes", proceed to question 3.

3) Are you comfortable with committing yourself today and forever more to placing any potential future decisions regarding the health of your daugther, grandaughter, wife, mother, or other loved female in the hands of an officer of the law (i.e. the government)?

Number 3 is the kicker ain't it? Think about it and be honest. It's easy to dismiss other peoples concerns as frivolous. But when it really affects you and your family, do you really want to have no say in the matter? Do you want an uninterested bureaucrat holding all the power? Anyone ever dealt with the IRS, or the INS, or an HMO? They tend to not give a shit about your loved ones.
