Dr. Leroy Carhart, late term abortionist:
“we are going to do everything in our power to ensure that women still have an option for late-second- and the early-third-trimester abortions that are medically indicated.”
Sarah Kliff “The Abortion Evangelist” Newsweek August 31, 2009
All too often, “medically indicated” means abortions for almost any reason. Emotional health usually counts as as reason for abortions. If a woman says her pregnancy makes her anxious or depressed, that could be considered a “medically indicated” reason for abortion. At other times, there is a health problem with the baby. For example, when the baby has Down syndrome he or she will be aborted 90% of the time, often in the second or third trimester.
