- ##Susan Garvin is at least a candidate for the title "pro-abortionist,"
- ##along with everyone else who sneers at every report of wrongdoing
- ##by LEGAL abortionists while choosing to blind themselves to evidence
- ##that certain illegal abortions never took place.
- ##
- #We have yet to see any evidence of wrongdoing by legal abortionists.
- #The crap you've posted about Dr. Tiller didn't show anything of the
- #sort. His medical practices as you described them are certainly
- #acceptable. You did post some hearsay evidence from a soruce (an
- #employee who had been fired) which can by no stretch of the
- #imagination (except yours) be considered either impartial or reliable.
-
- Shhh. PHoney thinks that charging money for a service constitutes
- malpractice. I wish that he'd speak to my oncologists...
-
- I do sneer at PHoney's reports. I also laugh at them.

- ##[This includes opposing informed consent requirements, requirements that

- ##requirements that abortions be done in EITHER a hospital OR licensed
- ##clinic, requirements that SO's be ALLOWED to witness the abortion,
- ##requirements that women be tested for pregnancy before D&C etc. are
- ##performed, etc. It also includes those spreading disinformation about
- ##these requirements already being in place, while knowing it to be false.]

- He must - I haven't seen anyone else posting misinformation on
- this subject lately. (Rev. Holtsinger lies about safety restrictions
- now and then, but he's slowed down lately. I think he's still
- embarrassed because he cited a court case and claimed that it held
- that abortion clinics weren't subject to the same public health laws
- that other clinics are. The case said exactly the opposite. He
- blamed it on the book he was quoting, _A Lawyer Looks at Abortion_,
- or somesuch, which shows how good their sources are.)
-
- PHoney certainly has some odd notions about what is standard
- medical procedure. I wonder if he thinks that a patient's SO
- should be allowed in the operating room for all surgery. I wonder
- if he knows why they are not. (Never mind - he is chock full
- of ideas that would make surgery less safe.)

- #Here's something we agree on Petey. You certainly qualify as an empty

- Make that three of us.
