FLOWERS: Gentlemen, we feel that the concept of a fetus being within the concept of a person, within the framework of the United States Constitution and the Texas Constitution, is an extremely fundamental thing. QUESTION: Of course, if you’re right about that, you can sit down, you’ve won your case. MR. FLOWERS: You Honor, -- QUESTION: Except insofar as maybe the Texas abortion law presently goes too far in allowing abortions. MR. FLOWERS: Yes, sir. That’s exactly right. We feel that this is the only question, really, that this Court has to answer."
