....Don't get me wrong though...I would also consider myself to be pro-choice. I had an abortion several years ago and I don't reget that "choice" I made. Since then I went on to have a beautiful little girl. When I was in labor with my daughter, I was told to only push until her head was out and then my doctor would take over. There was about a half of a minute when she was turning her head around and you heard hear her making sounds. At that point as I was lying there I knew I was completely against partial-birth abortions. I have no doubt at that period in time she was a life. I consider partial-birth abortions to be murder. I do respect the rights of women to make choices with their bodies in the first trimester...but not when the baby has a life..it isn't a choice...it is murder.
