7. Kind of a boondoggle
The right wouldn't touch it themselves, they couldn't associate themselves with actual abortions in any way. The left? I don't know if they would want to touch this either.

They'd have to get the vivisectionists that do all the sick animal experiments to research it. Inflicting pain doesn't bother them.

But one would think any obstretician (sp?) would already know the answer to this. I think it would have to do with the development of the cerebral cortex. Probably any general practitioner would know. I had a substitute teacher in high school tell me that she was an anti-abortion counselor and that abortion was terribly painful for the fetus, i remember her saying that "they burn off it's skin with saline solution" while it is being aborted. All the more reason for the morning after pill to be in vending machines, although this kind of reasoning escapes them.

I'm amazed they don't know of any research. Because they've done research to see if vegetables "feel pain" (react chemically) when they are cut.
