well, he really is right that by having an abortion, you're killing the unborn baby. but, the question is at what point does that baby become a seperate living entity? in my opinion, which i think most will disagree with the extremity of it, until the baby can live outside the mother without medical aid, it is nothing more than a parasite living inside the mother. and aborting it at anytime before it can live on its own does not bother me (although, i think if you're going to have an abortion, you should be making that decision well before the baby is close enough to fully developed).
if i were a woman, i could go to the doctors, and have a group of growing cells in my body terminated and no one would complain. but then again, no one seems to have a problem with killing cancer cells. even at 4 weeks, there isn't a whole lot of difference between cancer and a fetus. they are just a collection of cells multiplying that the body can not on its own get rid of, even if that is what the host most wishes.
