It's used in rare cases where the mother may die due to having this child or the child will be born with a deformity like a brain growing on the outside of its head. To believe that women would be carelessly using this procedure to abort children is ridiculous.

yes this procedure is very rare compared to "regular" abortions done before the 15th or 16th week. The problem with Bush's bill he just signed was that there was NO allowance for mother's health. So pretty much if you find out after your first trimester you are going to die giving birth, you are S.O.L. because of this new law. I do agree this procedure is barbaric and it makes me sick just thinking about it, BUT when did the baby's life become MORE important than the mothers? just a question.
