Abortion bias in the media

The title of this NPR piece is Abortion Study Could Shift Debate over Ban. This is absolutely fascinating.

The American Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology has published the first peer-reviewed study of an abortion procedure Congress banned last year. The study has the potential to shift the debate over the law. Contrary to claims by opponents in Congress, the study finds the procedure is no more dangerous than others used in the second trimester of pregnancy.

Dangerous to whom? The mother? I think it's the danger to a baby that is the issue. There is a Constitutional requirement, as determined in SCOTUS after they overturned the previous law, the health of the mother must be protected. I've written a letter to NARAL asking to provide examples of when partial-birth abortion is medically necessary. Not surprisingly, they were unable to provide such. Congress didn't pass the ban to eliminate a dangerous procedure to the mother; they did it to eliminate a dangerous procedure to the baby. This strawman is so obvious, NPR must be counting on the overwhelming Leftist tendancies of their audience to see this fallacy as a well constructed argument.
