Rick Santorum is taking a lot of heat for his statements that prenatal testing often leads to abortion. Let's examine the facts.

The New York Times reported in 2007 that 90% of women with Down Syndrome babies choose to have an abortion.

Now, does this mean all prenatal testing is bad? No. After all, spina bifida can be diagnosed and treated in utero. Santorum recognizes this and thinks that some prenatal testing is good.

So let's be honest and stop hyperventilating. Let's not pretend that prenatal testing does not lead to abortion in a lot of cases when we know for a fact that it does. Santorum is right, and the fact that Leftists are having a fit about what he said demonstrates that he hit the bullseye.
