			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h3><font size="4"><font face="Times New Roman"><strong><strong><font color="#000000">Women have turned to abortion to end unwanted pregnancies throughout the ages</font></strong></strong><strong><strong>.</strong></strong> In the U.S., induced abortion was common among Native Americans, and it was legal from colonial times to the middle of the 19th century. But unclean, primitive medical practices made it very dangerous. To protect women’s lives, laws against abortion began to be passed during the mid-1800s. But by the middle of the 20th century, cleaner, more advanced medical procedures made safe abortion possible. All U.S. laws against abortion were overturned in 1973 by the landmark U.S. Supreme Court decision in <em><em>Roe v. Wade</em></em>.  Today, abortion is legal nationwide and is one of the safest of all available medical procedures.</font><font face="Trebuchet MS"> </font></font></h3>
<h3><strong><font color="#000000" face="Trebuchet MS" size="4">About the <em>Roe vs. Wade</em> decision:</font></strong></h3>
<p><font color="#000000" face="Trebuchet MS" size="3">Prior to 1973, abortions were permitted in certain states but restricted or almost banned in others. Every state legislature created its own rules. There was no consistency across the U.S. Then, in 1973, the <em>U.S. Supreme Court</em> delivered one of its most famous and influential rulings: <em>Roe v. Wade. </em>It declared a Texas anti-abortion statute unconstitutional<em> </em>and thereby affected abortion laws in many other states<em>. </em><strong><sub>1</sub></strong><em> </em></font><font color="#000000" face="Trebuchet MS" size="3">The Supreme Court justices determined that, anywhere in the U.S.: </font></p>

<td valign="top" width="100%"><font color="#000000" face="Trebuchet MS" size="3">During the first three months of pregnancy, a woman and her physician may jointly decide to terminate a pregnancy. No significant state interference is allowed.</font></td>

<td valign="top" width="100%"><font color="#000000" face="Trebuchet MS" size="3">Later in pregnancy, states can restrict abortion access with laws but only if they are intended to protect the woman&#8217;s health.</font></td>

<td valign="top" width="42">&nbsp;</td>
<td valign="top" width="100%"><font color="#000000" face="Trebuchet MS" size="3">Once the fetus is viable, an abortion must still be available if the woman&#8217;s health or life are at risk. State governments are free to pass legislation that will allow or prohibit late-term abortions &#8212; those on a viable fetus &#8212; for other reasons.</font></td>

<p>It is exactly the time to tell the question that we have for Mr. Brownback:</p>
<p>1. As president, if Roe v. Wade were overturned how far would you go to stop abortion?</p>
<p>2. Since the dormant commerce clause prevents states from regulating actions across state lines, would you support national legislation that would prosecute women who cross the state lines to obtain an abortion?</p>
<p>this are the questions we would like to debate at.</p>
<p>all of you are welcome to contribute with your abnswers and thoughts.</p>
<p>thank you very much.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Hello Ladies and Gentleman!</p>
<p>This is again the group of civil liberties. The second question we are feeling to ask to the republican candidates is about abourtion.  The questoin is for Mr.Senator. Brownback.</p>
<p>As always we start by defining abortion:</p>
<p>An <strong>abortion</strong> is the removal or expulsion of an <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Embryo" title="Embryo">embryo</a> or <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fetus" title="Fetus">fetus</a> from the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uterus" title="Uterus">uterus</a>, resulting in or caused by its death. This can occur spontaneously as a <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Miscarriage" title="Miscarriage">miscarriage</a>, or be artificially induced by <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chemistry" title="Chemistry">chemical</a>, <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Surgery" title="Surgery">surgical</a> or other means. &#8220;Abortion&#8221; can refer to an induced procedure at any point during human <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pregnancy" title="Pregnancy">pregnancy</a>; it is sometimes medically defined as either miscarriage or induced termination before the point of <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Viability" title="Viability">viability</a>.<sup><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abortion#_note-0">[1]</a></sup> Throughout <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_abortion" title="History of abortion">history</a>, abortion has been induced by various methods. The <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ethical_aspects_of_abortion" title="Ethical aspects of abortion">moral</a> and <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abortion_law" title="Abortion law">legal</a> aspects of abortion are subject to intense <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abortion_debate" title="Abortion debate">debate</a> in many parts of the world.</p>
<p>We cansider this as one of the greates problem world is facing as it is a debate that has to do with the basic human rights. Some evidences and facts about abortion are :</p>
<p>In 2002, 1.29 million abortions took place, down from 1.36 million in 1996. From 1973 through 2002, more than 42 million legal abortions occurred.[<a name="3a" href="http://www.guttmacher.org/pubs/fb_induced_abortion.html#3">3</a>]</p>
<p>Each year, two out of every 100 women aged 15–44 have an abortion; 48% of them have had at least one previous abortion.[<a name="4a" href="http://www.guttmacher.org/pubs/fb_induced_abortion.html#4">4</a>]</p>
<p>Fifty-two percent of U.S. women obtaining abortions are younger than 25: Women aged 20–24 obtain 33% of all abortions, and teenagers obtain 19%.[<a name="6a" href="http://www.guttmacher.org/pubs/fb_induced_abortion.html#6">6</a>] </p>
<p>Over 60% of abortions are among women who have had one or more children.[<a name="10a" href="http://www.guttmacher.org/pubs/fb_induced_abortion.html#10">10</a>]</p>
<p>We can keep giving statistics but the point is not there. The only things that statistics say is how serios this problem is. The question we want to build is how to find a solutin to this problem.</p>
<p>For every idea and thought about this topic is welcome to this blog.</p>
<p>Thank you very much</p>
