Minnesota has some 'splainin to do.

Uh, you've lost sight of which Minnesota law we're talking about here. A ban on D/E or D/X or whatever had nothing to do with the wait-and-consent law that wronged this woman. It has to do with lecturing women on the evils of abortion when the fetus inside them is not viable, and they're already heartbroken about that. She merely observed that if her sonogram had happened two weeks later, she'd have to go to Kansas. She'd have gotten the legislature's lecture in either case, even if she was one month pregnant.
So spare me the talk about butchering little kids as they come out. Unless you're willing to sit in a white room and tell the mother of an anencephalic fetus that she's butchering her little kid.

Maybe Minnesota should amend the statute so that the speech need not be read to prospective parents of anencephalic kids. Or is there some reason why the pro-lifers would disagree?
