Ed are you suggesting that slavery should be a choice?
This week the Senate Finance Committee by a vote of 13-10 voted down two amendments that would have prevented abortion coverage in the health care bill. A bad sign. And three of the people were Catholics, they did not vote in accord with their faith. Someday we will look at abortion the way we look at slavery today.
