Supreme Court Begins Undoing Roe

Right to Life Wins....

Let er' rip Nellie, RW, PMCalk, Waterboy and other pro-abortion folks:

[iplaw]

No.  Common sense won the day.  There will be no undoing of RvW.

[guido911]

IP, Tell that to Ginsburg

[Conan71]

Just prohibits one method of abortion not the right to have one at all.  Roe V. Wade won't be over-turned.

After reading your article's description of the partial-birth method:  crushing skulls or cutting into the skull to complete the abortion, if I were a doctor I couldn't imagine using my medical skills to do that.  Yech.

[guido911]

Conan. I agree that all of Roe will not be overturned. I see the day, however, that the issue will be thrown back to the states---WHERE IT BELONGS...

[iplaw]

Most all of the nonsense that gets codified by the feds should be state issues.  Jefferson would be pissed.

[rwarn17588]

I don't care. I never liked partial-birth abortion anyway.

How many of those are done each year? A few dozen?

[iplaw]

The CDC reports a minimum of 20,000 per year.

[guido911]

IP:  Agreed.

RW:   You never "liked" partial birth abortion? I take it that means you "like" other forms of abortion. Thanks for speaking up...

Ironically, border security which most definitely should be handled by the Feds, gets pawned off on cities and states.  Go figure.

Keeping my fingers crossed though.  Half expect the Feds to get on the ball.  Other half says no one will touch it until after the 2008 elections.

No one's going to touch it as long as there's the potential to piss off 20mm potential future voters and existing naturalised Hispanics.  

I'm curious how the Dems will tip-toe around amnesty with their huge union base and keep both the Hispanics and unions happy.

If we'd have ever gotten manditory term limits in Washington, we might get some of these issues resolved instead of legislators worried more about maintaining a job than actually making worthwhile legislation.

The unions will organize them then both the dem's and the illegals will be happy and the Unions WIN

[iplaw]

Yeah...and the country loses.

Thank you Supreme Court!
Millions of babies have been killed by abortion, I don't comprehend how anyone could support abortions.
Do you think it is tragic that 33 people died at Virginia Tech? I hope so. So why don't you have a problem with MILLIONS of babies being killed?
It is hypocritical PERIOD

[guido911]

CUBS:  It is absolutely hypocritical, unless you subscribe to the notion that the VA. Tech killer should be absolved of fault since he had the "choice" to kill those people.
