I will fix all of that, and fast, and at long last this national nightmare will be over. women will be happy, healthy, confident and free! You will no longer be thinking about abortion, because it is now where it always had to be, with the states, and a vote of the people - and with powerful exceptions, like those that Ronald Reagan insisted on, for rape, incest, and the life of the mother - but not allowing for democrat demanded late term abortion in the 7th, 8th, or 9th month, or even execution of a baby after birth.
