I'm not sure how it's ignorant. We're discussing "choice". In the
educational world, liberals are "anti-choice". In the prenatal world,
liberals are "pro-choice". That seems odd.

OK, I'll change the wording to "pro-death". There's a constitutional "right
to life"; there is no constitutional "right to education" (though, listening
to the liberal elite, you'd think those two were switched).

I'm a libertarian. I'd prefer *no* government intervention -- except to
uphold the constitutional rights.
