I understand your take about being pro-life for yourself, and pro-choice 
otherwise.  I think one of the best weapons the 'pro-life' people have 
is ignorance about the subject in the general population. In Robpars
case, the 4th pregnancy would have forced a c-section.  I don't think
that forcing a woman to recover from a c-section in that case is
medically or morally proper.
