Abortion pill used in a quarter of US abortions (AP)

AP - Roughly a fourth of American women getting early abortions last year did so with drugs rather than surgery, statistics show, as a new study reported improved safety in using the so-called "abortion pill." » Full Story on Yahoo! News

its sad obama on his 3rd day in office signed a bill to use our tax money to pay for abortions here in the U.S. and other countries.

the bible says the lord knew you and sactified you in your mothers womb.

WHAT THE LIBERAL MEDIA DOES NOT TELL YOU IS THAT THE ABORTION PILL NOT ONLY KILLS THE BABY BUT ALSO KILLS THE MOTHER WHO TAKES IT!!!:

ion-pill-can-kill-mothers-too

"The
federal Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved RU-486, or mifepristone, under special expedited rules in 2000 during the Clinton Administration, and on Nov. 15, 2004, it decided to emphasize the possibly deadly consequences of taking it-not for unborn children, but for mothers. As a byproduct of killing her child, the drug can also kill the woman who chose to take it."

STOP ALL KINDS OF BABYKILLING NOW!!!:

Substitute the word "murder" for "abortion" and you'll have the act perpetrated by millions of "mothers" on defenseless babies. If anyone has any doubts that this country has lost its heart, Christianity and integrity, here's the proof.

Murder is now safer and easier than ever before. It's quite a scary thought.

A recent study by the Harvard Institute on Academic research showed that 90% of women who have abortions are sluts. 100% of women who have abortions will burn in hell.

Using this pill is far better than waiting seven months and then deciding to have a late-term abortion. Of course, to avoid pregnancy in the first place, responsible people would use birth control methods, thus not having to resort to the abortion pill. I think some consider taking this pill as no big deal and use it to prevent a full-term pregnancy after the fact. USE BIRTH CONTROL, so you don't have to kill a fetus. Thanks.

I don't think there's a way to stop women from aborting pregnancies that they don't want; women have been doing it for hundreds of years, even back when society as a whole had more "morals" and "integrity." With that said, it makes sense to make abortion safer. I'm sure as hell it beats throwing yourself down the stairs.

I wonder if all of these people who are protesting this type of abortion have adopted unwanted children and provided for them. I would also be amazed if they all practiced the abstinence they preach to their children.

Aw, abortion is so nice, so safe, such a pleasant, healthy, wonderful thing to do. I can't believe some people see it as brutally murdering a living baby as a selfish act to not be responsible for their promiscuous behavior. Where do these people come from?

as usual there will be many that don't care one bit about the truth, or morals, or anything else other than thier own blind ways. then there will be those that stand by thier morals and be kicked down for those morals. there is such a thing called birth control and abortion is not it!
all i can say is -"as in the days of Noah..."

This pill is safer for who?!?! The unborn life it is taking? We lie to ourselves if we think this is any more "humane" than a late term abortion. Murder is murder at any age or gestation.

Good to know that people are working to improve the safety of these drugs. I agree that responsible people use birth control, but to those of you calling women who have abortions sluts, you're really over-generalizing. A monogamous friend of mine became pregnant because a drug she takes for a serious illness counteracted her contraceptives. Not sluttish. And remember: when you say 'outlaw abortion', you're saying the life of an unborn fetus is more important than a grown woman with a personality and, if you will, a soul. How hateful!

Still shocking to see how passionately people feel about controlling women's lives and freedom over their own bodies. Don't approve of abortion? Don't have one. "Sluts?" What about the men who impregnate these women? Still a double standard when it comes to this issue. Thank GOD for Roe V. Wade!

Being that I'm a liberal, but a free thinker, I find it beautiful how there's usually a whole "I have a right to choose what happens to MY body" argument going on, and it's an argument that for some reason is never challenged.

What I'm saying is, the "right to choose what happens to my body" argument is irrelevant, it does not apply. The reason is that it's not what's going to happen to YOUR BODY that is the reasoning behind the decision. You are concerned about what will happen to YOUR LIFE. So please, if any of you use that argument, come up with a new reason.

While I don't believe in abortion, hopefully it will always be a private matter. It is upto that couple or that woman to decide; it is not upto a bunch of religious fanatics who think they can dictate the lives of others.
It bewilders me that all of these religious fanatics don't adopt the babies that put up for adoption instead of being aborted. It is also criminal that people allow violence against woman who have to LEGAL RIGHT TO AN ABORTION.

I agree P M in that people should use birth control rather than abortion, I am not pro-abortion. I AM pro-choice though because it needs to be as safe as we can make it and legal. No more butchers in filthy back-rooms!

NEWSFLASH, a woman has the legal right to have an abortion in this country, as it is in most civilized nations. If you can't handle it, then maybe you should move to the wonderful god fearing countries that fully or mostly restrict abortion. Feel free to choose any of the following destinations: Chad, the Congo, Mexico, Egypt, somalia, Iran, Iraq, Turkey, Sudan, Saudi Arabia, Niger, el Salvador, Afghanistan, etc.

Good luck living in any of these backwater countries where ignoarnce rules, i.e. the citizens think like you do.

Saporta said abortion opponents "have been misleading people into thinking that medical abortion is unsafe,"..........

It is very unsafe to the life of the child... Leftists are so cruel and stupid. I blame it on government education.

Boy, that is a lot of babies killed. Whoever invented thsi stuff mus sleep well at night...

And notice, the ASSOCIATED PRESS 'journalist' did not mention ANY negatives to the mother (and obviously the child) from abortion?

This is Associated Press - Democratic Liberal propaganda at it's best... Yahoo needs to get a decent news source aside from the biased AP.
