Polk County District Court Judge Joseph Seidlin on Monday temporarily blocked Iowa's six-week abortion ban bill that ceased nearly all abortions in the state for 72 hours. The legislation was signed on Friday by Gov. Kim Reynolds after state lawmakers held a special session Tuesday with the "sole purpose" of passing the legislation.

I meant infinity weeks within common medical practice.

So by "infinity" you meant "less than 30". Infinity is literally the worst, most incorrect word that you could have used in this situation. You criticising my reading comprehension is a hoot based on your poor choice of words that mean one thing but you're using them to mean something else. Even an elementary school kid knows not to use infinity when they mean "less than 30". You seem to have the same amount of communication skills as an average Democratic congressman.

Nope. They meant there should be no absolute one-size-fits-all number of weeks. There should be no weeks because it is a medical decision between the patient and doctor. They will not provide a number of weeks because the number of weeks is no one's business but the patient and doctor.

So I'll ask you - do you think someone should be able to get an abortion at 40 weeks?
