Abortion covered under the right to privacy,hod the constitution up to a light,get a magnifying glass,it isnt there.
I never understood how abortion became a right to privacy either. The only thing about it is that if you make it a states right issue, it will change with the wind, as state legislatures swing back from conservative to liberal and then back again.

In the early 60's, we had a neighbor whose daughter had to stay with "an aunt" for a few months. The truth that we all knew was that she was pregnant and got an abortion, which was illegal. But her parents were rich white conservative churchgoing Christians. So they could afford to send her out of state to have it done. Unfortunately, poor girls can't afford the same health care, and now with so many Americans without health insurance, it would really endanger girl's lives.

Please believe me on this.........outlawing abortion would not stop it. It would drive it back to the back rooms and let anyone with a clothes hanger become an instant doctor.

What should be investigated, in my opinion, is how our tax money is used to fund abortions........as well as numerous other handouts.

Onward!
