Hmmm, VERY interesting, Tina. So why isn't he an OB now? Even MORE power
and money in Politics... The concept of birth as pathological is like a
disease, isn't it? Regards, Lois

Hi all,
After reading all of dear Senator Eggleston's responses to this issue, I
started to smell a rat. I like MM could see that this man was very set in
his
ways and not negtiable on this issue and seemed to have a pathological
adversion to midwifery. Why I asked?? Who is this man?? Where has his gross
disregard for the skills of midwives developed from???
I went to the Australian Liberal party website and did a little researching.
Surprise, surprise surprise !!!!!!!!! Look what I found!!

who'm I'm dealing with.

his
