&gt; Point being, there&#x27;s no room for compromise on the abortion issue from the left.<p>Did you mean left?  There&#x27;s lots of discussion on the left about what time limits should be set; or how many doctors you need to persuade; or what conditions could extend the time limits; etc.  But from the right there&#x27;s a blanket &quot;no abortion, ever, for any reason&quot;, with fucking stupid comments like &quot;First of all, from what I understand from doctors, that&#x27;s really rare. If it&#x27;s a legitimate rape, the female body has ways to try to shut that whole thing down. But let&#x27;s assume that maybe that didn&#x27;t work or something. I think there should be some punishment, but the punishment ought to be on the rapist and not attacking the child.&quot;
