I don't know what the problem is with abortion. A disapportionate % of them are minorities. We should be grateful. It means less crime and less low lifes on welfare.

Another poll somewhat contradicts the OP's poll and that is a very recent CNN poll that shows strong support for leaving Roe v Wade alone:
"The 1973 Roe versus Wade decision established a woman's constitutional right to an abortion, at least in the first three months of pregnancy. Would you like to see the Supreme Court completely overturn its Roe versus Wade decision, or not?"
30% Yes, overturn
68% No, not overturn"

Quote from IShopAtPublix:
Should not this be obvious? Let's try the socratic method on you. Do you think it would be right for a firefighter to not go put out fire at a convicted felon's house? Should a policeman intervene if he sees a prostitute getting assaulted?
Medicine is a special profession. It emphasizes SERVICE. You do no harm(I realize religious nutcases on ET will grab on to this phrase and think it applies to a collection of cells but it does not). If you allow doctors to pick and choose to do whatever the hell they want, it becomes the end of the profession. There is no place for "conscientious objectors" in medicine.
If you go into branch of medicine that conceivably could call upon you to perform abortions (I assume it would be OB/GYN or something related) you should make damn sure you are ready for that possibility. There are many doctors who are not qualified to perform abortions even if they wanted to.
I always get angry at idiot pharmacists (usually in fly over states) who refuse to dispense legal birth control medicine "for personal" reasons. Those fools should have their license revoked immediately.
so you favor prosecution for those who don't perform abortions ...
evil incarnate ... and people wonder why i always follow Leftist with Idiot
Quote from IShopAtPublix:
Bullshit. Plain and simple. The most ardent supporters of pro life have always been religious freaks.
A collection of cells is not a human. Roe v Wade is perfection.
There is three more assertions with no references to back them up... I have this ignore list criteria and my meds ran out so I'm obsessing on it agian.. can't recall the whole thing but uh..... rude, assertions without reasoning, lack of info, disinfo... yeah, dude, you qualify for something after all...
Should be no problem then getting a Constitutional amendment banning abortions...

Whats this? The country is supposed to be moving to the left and abandoning Republican issues. At least thats what the media would have you believe. How do we explain this little anomaly? It must be bad data.
Bad data. Bad, bad data. Behave yourself.

So Gallup screwed it up? Whenever dems can't get their way with polls they attack the pollsters. I would expect no less.
it's simple really ...
ask a random sample of adults if they are in favor of having the brains of infants scrambled ...
my guess is that few would want that

?-Man sometimes you get desperate in your attempt at a put down.
In no way did I attack the pollster as I think Gallup is the best of the bunch.
Simply put (for your benefit), polls often contradict each other as is the case here.
As usual, it depends in how the question is asked. CNN asked a related poll question that was different than Gallup's.
BTW-attacking the messenger/pollster is GOP 101.
Try harder next time pinhead to come up with a retort that
This link has a good analyses of the inconsistencies in abortion polls and is worth reading.

Straight from the conservative playbook:
Attack The Messenger: Instead of addressing the argument that has been made, people using this method attack the person making it instead. This is particularly easy for many delusional people on the left who believe that almost everyone on the right is a racist, sexist, homophobic, Fascist who longs for the return of the Confederacy and is planning to start throwing leftists in prison camps if they let their guard down for five minutes. The charge made doesn't even have to be accurate, in fact it's better in some ways if it's off target. That's because the more whacked out the charge is, the more compelled your opponent will feel to spend his time defending himself while you continue to make your points."
