To the editor:

Hillary Clinton says babies inside the womb have no constitutional rights, and even supports partial birth abortions. The flawed case in favor of partial-birth rests on the unbelievable illusion that partial-birth abortion is ever necessary to save a woman’s life. In fact, considerable research has shown that almost all partial-birth abortions are performed on healthy mothers and healthy children, most often in cases where a woman cannot make up her mind about whether or not to abort until late in the pregnancy. There is no “health condition” a mother could have that requires her to half deliver her child so it can be injected with poison that stops its heart from beating.

I’m not a doctor, but I can’t imagine a condition in which the only way to save a woman’s life is to pull a baby halfway out and kill it. Nor can I fathom any reason for waiting until this point.

Vote pro life.
