You hit it--I think I would have been behind it had the authors included a provision for the health of the mother. Supporting absolute bans on specific types of abortion makes the liberal in me a little nervous, though, so I'd have to really read up before I supported it too vocally. I'm not sure Bush's intention wasn't just to shove a little snowball down the mountain, hoping eventually to outlaw different kinds. Like I said, though, I probably would have supported it.
