Oh, this is rich: But [George] said that selective reduction is not the same as traditional abortion because the goal is the healthiest possible birth rather than the termination of a pregnancy.
Because the result isn't a baby (or more than one baby!) that's just as dead as the dead baby in a "traditional" abortion? The goal is exactly the same! They might couch it in "noble" terms, but they're still ripping a healthy baby out of a woman's uterus for the sake of convenience, most of the time. What is the matter with these people?
