Come back at a later date? What, on the back of a stork? And where, exactly does little Freddy or Freda Fetus hang in the interim? Is there a departure lounge someplace that I'm unaware of? This could well be the oddest thing I've read on the V ever.

Tony,
Since you want to speak for the unborn I shall also. I would bet that a fetus conceived at some totally inopportune moment in in a woman's life would rather come back at a later date when the mother could give her best to the child. I think it is far more appropriate for the woman in question to make the decision if the time was right.....not some right-winged nut job. I think a child would think the same thing.
Your little argument about License versus Freedom is very tricky tony but stupid. Of course the definitions are different or there wouldn't be the two words but the freedom to give License is a freedom just the same. If you want to disallow the ability to give License then you are curtailing freedom. You probably got this little tidbit from a Carl Rove handout. It sounds as dumb assed as he is.
James
