Joe Walsh: No medical need any more for exceptions for maternal health

"With modern technology and science, you can't find one instance... There is no such exception as life of the mother, and as far as health of the mother, same thing."

--Rep. Joe Walsh (R-IL), quoted by WGN, saying he was against abortion "without exception" because it's no longer medically necessary to conduct an abortion to save the life of a mother.
