From what I remember, all the testimony in the lower court cases showed that there would NEVER be a situation where a partial birth abortion would be needed to save the mother.
A simple c-section would take care of any medical problems a mother might be having at that late stage in pregnancy—babies are capable of surviving outside the womb now at what? 22-24 weeks?? Why murder a baby to supposedly “save” a mother, when BOTH could be saved?? Even if the mother didn’t want to keep the child, at least the child would be ALIVE to put up for adoption or fostering or whatever!
PBA is NEVER necessary. NEVER.
You're correct. There's not a single health problem this procedure "cures" that couldn't be treated with a Caesarean section or a vaginal birth.
Truly sick, especially when you consider a lot of these kids are suffering from Down's Syndrome or cleft palate.
