I'm interested in real, sane, people who still think Dr Tiller aborted healthy late-term fetuses for the convenience of healthy women.
Which includes a whole lot of people who were listening to this news event via the right wing presses. Even reasonable people. It comes as a complete surprise to them, the news that the babies that Dr. Tiller was aborting often had no faces, no brains, or were already dead. They had "heard" that these were viable babies.
The honorable ones, when presented with this data (by me), step back and promise to rethink this through. But I'm not talking to all that many people one-on-one about this.
