Anyone brave enough to post their opinion on the likely passage of the partial-birth/late-term (depending on your view) abortion ban? I for one am very pleased it was passed. Keep in mind, however, these types of procedures are not all that common.
Abortion bill passes Senate....

I do believe in a woman's right to choose, but when it gets to the 6-9 month
time frame, I think it is a bit late. If abortion happens, it should happen early
in the pregnancy.
I agree with abortion in case of rape or incest.

While I'm usually as liberal as one can get even the idea of "late term abortion" makes me quesy! I generally support a womens right to chose but I don't think it is unreasonable to deny late term abortions if the mothers life is not at risk. Just to clarify, what is classified as "late term". Is it 6 to 9 months like "camay" suggested or anytime after the first 13 weeks or so when the procedure is typically preformed?

This type of abortions is done quite late in the pregnancy; otherwise, they would use other methods to kill the baby. They wouldn't need to wait for a fully formed baby to make its way out of the birth canal before executing it.
