- Great going, buckaroo. So, for a woman to qualify for an abortion
- under your gracious `exception' she has to stay pregnant until her
- rapist has been *CONVICTED?*

- I never have. Maybe I should try harder, eh?

- I note cynically that you aren't saying what conditions should grant
- the government power to punish those who have illegal abortions.

- I'll thank you to keep you condescending attitude out of my bedroom,
- Mr. Chuck -- your opinions regarding the relative responsibility
- demonstrated by my sexual behavior is none of your damned business --
- and it shouldn't be the government's either.
