Joycelyn Elders on abortion

[juldea]

When I was out there saying I wanted to prevent unplanned, unwanted pregnancies, of course, that was interpreted that I wanted women to have abortions. Well, you know, I tell people all the time I am not about promoting abortions. I have never been about abortions. I am about preventing unplanned, unwanted pregnancies. If you prevent unplanned, unwanted pregnancies, there is never a need for an abortion. I have never known any woman to need an abortion if she was not already pregnant.

Joycelyn Elders, M.D.

I like this quote.
