“I sure as hell don’t want ANY politicians, especially members of the party of death, making decisions about my healthcare.”

Make no mistake, I’m pro-life.

...But in that statement, you have made a logical contradiction. It is EXACTLY “politicians” who will ban abortions if we get a chance, and “politicians” who currently regulate it.

So, in a strict libertarian stance, the pro-life people would definitely lose out.

I’ve always thought that the whole abortion debate had flipped each side on its head, with the “limited government” crowd wanting MORE government here, and the “more government” people wanting libertarian freedoms.

This is also why the Terri Schiavo case split Freep so badly....

I see your point. I suppose I’ll have to admit that there are some politicians who can be helpful and actually do what the Constitution says they can do. I’m not sure who they are tho.
