      The precise reason this argument fails is that it requires us to believe Limbaugh cares about the health of any woman who would have an abortion.

        Boy you sure get around, what makes you so angry?

        You have no idea what Limbaugh feels or cares about women...

        I don't know the "world Health Organization" certainly hasn't shown that they know ANYTHING about health. If they did they'd do something about malaria, diarrhea and for that matter aids... No instead they blow the "swine flu" virus WAY out of proportion (and that can be proved given that millions die from malaria every year).

        Why would anyone believe anything they say regarding a link between abortion and breast cancer... The studies that SHOW a link between abortion and breast caner seem much more scientific...

          "You have no idea what Limbaugh feels or cares about women"
          ...who would have an abortion. You left that part out.


          "I don't know the "world Health Organization" certainly hasn't shown that they know ANYTHING about health. If they did they'd do something about malaria, diarrhea and for that matter aids..."
          AIDS and Malaria have been among WHO's major setbacks, without a doubt. Do you flatly deny the central role that WHO played in the eradication of small pox in 1979? Do you deny that they are also leading a successful effort to eradicate polio?

          Please tell me, in your infinite wisdom, how getting an abortion (a relatively non-invasive procedure performed in the lower abdomen) could possibly affect the health of the tissue in the upper abdomen?

          Also note that neither yourself nor Limbaugh can cite a source for this supposed study.

          As the internet saying goes... "pics or it didn't happen".

      According to the World Health Organization, scientific studies have concluded that no link between abortion and breast cancer exists.

      There is NO link between abortion and breast cancer. They have been doing studies for years now about the a link between the 'pill' and breast cancer. The studies have varied, and from my understanding they haven't been able to prove a link.

      The woman that Limbaugh was talking too is a twinkie, and he is a woman hating loon.

      This man knows nothing about the female body and confronted with one, wouldn't know what to do, despite his 3 "Potamkin Villages" marriages.

        I wonder how familiar he is with the bodies of pre-teen boys in the Dominican Republic.

            What's wrong? John Paradox is simply asking questions, just like your heroes Beck and Limbaugh. He was making no accusations or anything, and you say it seems like he knows a lot about boys in the DR?

            Jeez, somebody's defensive...

        Fact: American Cancer Society and Nation Cancer Institute say abortions do not increase the risk of breast cancer.

        I know that clicking a link is difficult for you right-wing dittobots, oldmaninblackforest.

        So I did it for you, and posted the key sentence.

        You're welcome.

        True, but when organizations who have performed studies relating to this exact correlation refute these baseless claims, then it DOES make it so.
