I find this unlikely, but it seems that Republican Senator David Vitter disagrees, stating that "many" Americans do not support abortion rights.
I may be from a "blue state", but I think it's safe to say that what Senator Vitter asserts just isn't true. According to Gallup Polls, most Americans actually do support a woman's right to choose, despite what some conservative politicians would have us believe.
While the majority of Americans do support greater restrictions on abortions, to say that Americans do not support it at all should be seen as nothing less than a flat-out lie. And if it's not the case? Maybe one can say the Senator is just 'misinformed', and if that's true, should really be holding that office?
Really, Vitter. If you're so ignorant on the matter of public opinion, do us all a big favor and quit your day job. We'd be better off.

I for one, do not support a womans 'right' to choose weather her child lives or dies.
but thats just me, iv yet to hear an argument that changes that in my mind, and i listen to alot (as a college student in a blue state).
What gets me is that if Humans care for their young, how can i still classify women who get an abortion as human?
Abortion kills a fetus, which is a living being, but is it a human? The answer to this question depends on what kind of person is answering. A view that a single cell that results from conception is as much a human as a fully developed person is a religious dogma, that often supersedes natural feeling of compassion. Another relevant question is this: is the value of life absolute?, is it possible that sometimes termination of life is more humain than the preservation?. Prolife position makes certain things easier for a person. It makes things more straight forward, eliminates the need to make difficult, often agonizing decisions. That is one of the reasons it is attractive, but essenssially it is a fanatical, anti-humain position. It refuses to consider negative consiquences of brining an unwanted child to the world.
