Links and spin
Tom Brosz — (archived)

Sorry about the link...shouldn't have assumed everyone had Powerpoint. Thanks for digging up an Acrobat version...will stick that in my bookmarks for future reference.

The original site reference I gave, admittedly from a biased source, pointed out the fact that pro-abortion groups also tend to "spin" the statistics, making it sound like most women get abortions for health or other critical reasons. The actual statistics don't bear that out. If that's "spin," make the most of it. The "3.7 reasons" number is mentioned in the text even before the first table. The table cites the most important reasons given.

Try and figure out which of the reasons on the table would combine if a woman gave more than one.

"Rape" and "Has all the kids she wants?"

Odds are most of the multiple reasons would fall under the "inconvenient" label.
