- The quote is entirely sp[eculative, as you well know, and flies
- in the face of the facts, such as explicit statements in the
- relevant cases that the states may regulate third trimester
- abortions, such as the fact that abortions are not obtained in
- the fashion suggested, and such as the fact that numerous states
- have laws which regulate or prohibit abortions in the third
- trimester except under specified circumstances of threat to the
- life of the pregnant woman. That a Georgetown law professor
- can make an argument that flies in the face of the facts
- convincing merely demonstrates that he is clever. You have
- demonstrated that you will not let facts get in the way of
- your agenda.
