Abortion is safer than carrying pregnancy to term!?!

Today I met with a friend of our family who happens to be the college outreach program coordinator for FEMINISTS FOR LIFE http://www.feministsforlife.org/. She told me something that I found alittle shocking. According to Cayce Utley, Planned Parenthood's website makes claims that having an abortion is safer than carrying a pregnancy to term. Being the skeptic that I am I went to their website and sure enough, this is what they say:

If you choose abortion, you will also want to compare the benefits, risks, and side effects of each of your options. For example, both medication abortion and early vacuum aspiration are extremely safe. But current data suggest that medication abortion may carry a higher risk of death than early vacuum aspiration abortion. Even so, both procedures are much safer than abortion later in pregnancy or carrying a pregnancy to term.

Let me explain the concept of blogging. A blog (short for web log) is a website that provides commentary or news on a particular subject such as food, politics, or local news; some function as more personal online diaries. A typical blog combines text, images, and links to other blogs, web pages, and other media related to its topic. The ability for readers to leave comments in an interactive format is an important part of many blogs.

I am trying to stir up some controversy here. Is anyone out there????
