Reduce abortions? Why?

"I was a little tired and instead of going into what that actually means,
I decided on a different tactic. I asked a simple question. Why? Why do you
and Obama want to reduce abortions?

My friend for a few moments stuttered and finally just said, "What do you
mean, why?"I mean, why is it so important for abortion to be so rare that it
warrants the President of the United States talking about it? If the fetus in
the womb is just a blobby little choice and not a child at all, what do we care
if abortion happens a thousand times a day and twice that on Sundays."
