Tony Abbott"I want to make it clear I do not judge or condemn any woman who has had an abortion. There would not be anyone under 50 in this country who has not come up close and personal against this issue. I accept that resolutions made in church often wilt under the hot breath of passion - I think I know that as well as any person in this chamber - but every abortion is a tragedy and up to 100,000 abortions a year is this generations legacy of unutterable shame."
Tony Abbott"I guess in the end Im a bit like Bill Clinton on this matter, who said that he thought [abortion] should be safe, legal and rare. And I underline rare."
Tony Abbott"It seems that, notwithstanding the dramatic increases in manmade CO2 emissions over the last decade, the worlds warming has stopped."
