They's Found the Slippery Slope... It's In Britain

For years, abortion foes have used the "slippery slope" argument. We say that allowing abortions for the "hard cases" (teenage mothers, rape, etc.) will inevitably lead to use of abortion for "easy cases" which just about everyone feels are morally reprehensible. It was dismissed by abortion advocates as fallacious. Well, maybe not so much anymore in Great Britain.

Late terminations have been performed in recent years because the babies had club feet, official figures show.
Babies are being aborted with only minor defects.
Other babies were destroyed because they had webbed fingers or extra digits.
Such defects can often be corrected with a simple operation or physiotherapy.
The revelation sparked fears that abortion is increasingly being used to satisfy couples' desire for the 'perfect' baby.

The problem of course with a slippery slope argument is that at each step, the next step is unimaginable to those with good intentions. But for those of us who believe that Man is basically evil, it is all too obvious.
