In fact, it now carries a net positive appeal in Missouri—and probably in many other states as well." http://www.thenewamerican.com/cultu...nstrates-solid-pro-life-views-among-americans "Most significantly, the Gallup pollsters found that 87 percent of Americans would favor a law “requiring doctors to inform patients about certain possible risks of abortion before performing the procedure.” Similarly, the survey found that: — 71 percent would favor a law “requiring women under 18 to get parental consent for any abortion.” — 69 percent would favor a measure “requiring women seeking abortions to wait 24 hours before having the procedure done.” — 64 percent would support a measure making it illegal for a doctor to perform a late-term “partial birth abortion”— except when necessary “to save the life of the mother.” — 50 percent would support a law “requiring women seeking an abortion to be shown an ultrasound image of her fetus at least 24 hours before the procedure.” http://www.californiafamilycouncil.org/ChangingAttitudesonChildrearingandthePreborn Further proof: "Part two of a multi-part Gallup series on American abortion viewpoints focused on generational differences. Examining polling data since 1975, Gallup finds hope for the pro-life movement – that public opinion continues to trend in a pro-life direction.

WOW http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=104429489 "Poll: Majority Of Americans Are Pro-Life" Read em and weep abortion promoters. America is wising up, now perhaps you should follow suit! Abortion is a horrific premeditated homicide, regardless of the stage of pregnancy or any other arbitrary threshold you dream up.
Now find reliable data on what percentage of Americans wish to outlaw abortions in the first trimester and you just may have a point. Oh wait, all the data shows that most people other then evangelicals, do not wish to see abortion made illegal.
Just for once try to answer the question. What percentage of the population wants to see abortion outlawed? All the rest is just your pipe dream. Feel good studies for the ignorant.
I will not continue your off topic tangent line, how about you comment on the actual topic at hand and the ACTUAL OP?
The OP is vague and meaningless. If and when people will truly become pro-life then they will wish to see abortion made illegal. Now they do not.
Why not stay on topic and actually read the OP, which you CLEARLY have not done. does this confuse you? "The answer, clearly, is that an increasing majority of Americans — both men and women — are identifying themselves more and more as pro-life" Or this? "MARTIN: Now Frank, just to recap, last year when you asked the same question, 44 percent of those who responded said they were pro-life; now, 51 percent say they are pro-life. Is this an unusual shift on a question like this in just one year and, of course, we want to know what you make of it. Mr. NEWPORT: It is a significant change. And it's not just that one poll. We actually replicated that and conducted a totally separate sample of another thousand individuals, and we found essentially the same change. And then we looked around and found that the Pew Research Center had found also a significant shift to the more conservative on abortion. Fox News poll found significant shifts to the more conservative position on abortion and other polls have as well, and not just on that question. The other question we track is, should abortion be totally legal, totally illegal, or legal in some circumstances? And we found a shift in that question, as well, towards a more conservative position. "
I did read what you posted, that is why I know that nowhere it states that people wish to make abortion illegal. What does your statement mean really other than feel good fluff. What is identifying oneself more pro-life? Don't pro-lifers wish to outlaw abortion? Clearly most people do not.
I guess you aren't keeping up. Attitudes are undeniably moving toward a more pro life position. This is proven here, Shreik all you want, the facts don't change.
Yes attitudes are changing, and more people wish to see abortion remain legal. But we all knew that including you. Of course you do not like that and thus choose to delude yourself with feel good studies.
If you are correct, your work is done and you can move on to something else rather than spending your life on the abortion boards. If you don't really believe what you stated, we'll see you here again.
I see, so you want me to leave the board eh? That is proof positive that I am needed here and should stay indefinitely. I know I threaten your campaign of deception and abortion promotion, that is why I stay.
We all see that you do not really believe abortion will be ended soon. I do not promote abortion, I promote rights, and not deceptively either.
No whaler, you are the only one who has to think about what plain facts mean. Those plain facts, towards which you were kind enough to point us clearly show that more people wish to see abortion remain legal. I am sorry you are having such great difficulty with such simple information, non the less we remain grateful to you for having provided it. You, not even that...
So when a poll shows that American people are moving toward a more pro life position, it actually means they are moving toward a more "pro-chioce" position? Is that what you are trying to say here? Is that what "plain language" means to you? I thought you hated dictionaries and considered them unreliable and irrelevant, but now you want to talk about "plain language"? How interesting.
You just stick with your inane polls, I'll take the relevant ones, like the one in which you shoved that most people do not wish to make abortion illegal.
The topic is the the popularity of abortion.. The percentage of folks who want abortion outlawed is definately not "off topic" ?!
Please do not repeat the same lie over and over. Post something valid as a refutation or point to it or just ****.
