I'm really glad we will be addressing this debate in class since it has been such an important topic lately. I was moved by Speir's speech and it reminded me of what we discussed in class last week, of how abortion is not a decision which women take lightly. I thought she presented that point very well and I was also reminded of our talk on whether or not this debate is a waste of time when so much more is happening in our country. It seems like the debate between "prochoice" and "prolife" will never end but I'm not sure how much farther it can be taken. I think the one of the underlying points is that people should be able to use their insurance for what is needed in their specific circumstance and their privacy should be respected.
