Strange, why isn't this thread being flooded by people delighted that abortion went down since Obama took office?

Going from 1.2 million abortions a year to 1.06 million abortions a year is not cause for rejoicing.   And Obama had nothing to do with it.   Obamacare is making getting abortions easier, as it is a covered procedure.

 

The article also points to the fact the decline may be illusionary as the numbers are based on voluntary, self-reporting of providers.  Meaning the numbers could be larger if not all providers have reported.

 

In addition, the article also cites more ant-abortion legislation and lobbying efforts as a possible reason for the decline as well.

Does the article mention the use of plan b, the abortifacient that is available everywhere including vending machines, which makes killing babies far easier now. (I count fertilized eggs as life. Plan B attempts to prevent that life from continuing on.)

No, it doesn't.   Yeah, if they only count abortions done in clinics, the abortion rate is probably much, much higher.

Obama has nothing to do with it.  No president would.  Give God the Glory!

 

As for the article, the figures are not complete for the past few years yet.  Here are some statistics.
