Have politicians made the abortion issue more volatile by their adamant stances on either side of this issue?

Cons should be much more pro-choice. "Killing babies" no...babies are alive and developed. Big government would stop a woman's right. Male cons should be particularly pro-choice. It's not their say.

On the other side, Liberals needn't use it as the first line of birth control.

They should also not call it a woman's right. It is a western world privilege.

The pluses and minuses can be evaluated on and on.

How I would reach a middle ground is partially taxpayer funded planned parenthood with high priority on responsible sexual education, not merely sheltering kids from the topic.

The partially subsidized Planned Parenthood would include an out of pocket deductible.

You also have to recognize that by 20 weeks, either have the kid or don't. It doesn't take 20 weeks to reach the decision.

... it shouldn't be an issue period. We're talking about murdering babies... who in their right mind values convenience over a life?
