GOP seeks suspension of RU-486 - The Washington Times: Nation/Politics - November 18, 2004

Who really cares if women die from pregnancy- that is thier rightful punishment for daring to have sex, right?

GOP seeks suspension of RU-486 - The Washington Times: Nation/Politics - November 18, 2004

After only three deaths in an estimated 360,000 uses, the GOP-led Congress plans to reintroduce a bill to "temporarily suspend" sales of RU-486 so it can be more thoroughly investigated. With a maternal death rate in the US of 12 per 100,000, RU-486 is about 13-14 times safer than a full term pregancy. Of course, the solution is simple: suspend all pregnancies for a year so we can more fully evaluate their safety.
