There are 1.3 million abortions performed every year in this country and one in four American women has at least one abortion while reproductively active. For the most part, those women continue to lead their lives without suffering from that decision.

I know what she's feeling. And, regardless of all her private and public attempts at meliorating her own pain, I know what will be her final thought when she passes from this life. God help us all.

Actually, the translation is that with 1.3 millions of abortions annually and 1/4 of all women having an abortion at least one time in their lives, it's more likely that abortion will remain legal.

I've said many times on FR that there aren't 1.3 million abortions a year because it's legal, rather it's legal because there are 1.3 million abortions a year.

A subtlety lost on many pro lifers. Though I'm pro life, I remain pessimistic that when push comes to shove, a majority of Americans wouldn't outlaw first trimester abortions.
