- No, Linda. They've been talking the talk, but they haven't been
- walking the walk. Walk into ANY, and I mean ANY abortion alternative
- organization ANYWHERE, and you will not find even one pro-"choicer" among
- them. It always has been and always will be the pro-lifers who provide any
- non-abortive help to pregnant women in trouble.

- Being pregnant and in need of help doesn't sound like stringent "requirements"
- whatsoever to me. But do not ever expect an organization devoted to providing
- alternatives to abortion to _ever_ aid someone in _obtaining_ an abortion.
- That's just garbage.
