It suggests there are more than enough doctors in Oregon to do the job in California.
The doctors here refused to sedate a convicted murderer because they knew that after his sedation, he would be executed.
In Oregon, they will not only sedate an old lady who has done nothing wrong, they will give her a lethal dose. Like abortion, they kill the innocent with little regard for the enormous role they undertake.
What proof do you have that these particular physicians have particaped in prison abortions? Anesthesiologists aren't typically involved in abortions btw, so that makes your claim especially doubtful.
I love it when people make ignorant assumptions. I am not pro-choice, I just resent turning every conversation to abortion.
Sorry but it IS the watershed issue in this country. To borrow the phrase Francis Schaeffer used to title his book, it is perhaps THE prime indicator of 'How Then Shall We Live?," there is the tendency to turn many secondary discussions INTO a conversation on abortion as the rest of it turns ON that topic.
If we deny the sanctity of human life, nothing else really matters, does it?
And if you're over 50, you'd BETTER be concerned about how we view the beginning of the life cycle because there's a very real possibility that a population conditioned to accept the killing of the most defenseless of us in the former safety of their mothers' wombs can probably be convinced that euthanasia for what Margaret Sanger and her student, one Adolph Hitler, called "useless eaters."
Think about it.
Sorry, but don't agree at all. It is one of but many issues of importance that we face politically, and the rest really don't hinge on abortion no matter how much you or anyone else want them to. I have nothing against those who've made abortion their single issue, but I do resent it when they attempt to stifle conversation on all other topics by attempting to steer the conversation over to abortion.
'Anesthesiologists aren't typically involved in abortions'
Surgical abortion:
Up to 12 weeks: $340.00 for local anesthesia, $440.00 for general anesthesia
12 to 13.6 weeks: $540.00 for general anesthesia
14 to 15.6 weeks: $700.00 for general anesthesia
Having a GYN doc to administer general anesthesia is like
hiring a plumber to do electrical work.
