Quote: "President Bush, social issues activists and several of the contenders in the 2008 presidential race were quick to react Wednesday to the Supreme Court’s 5-4 decision upholding a federal ban on the controversial procedure that opponents have labeled “partial birth abortion.”
The three Democratic presidential hopefuls leading in early preference polls...opposed the decision.
Obama weighed in with support for the dissenting opinion of Justice Ruth Ginsberg, who wrote that the ruling “tolerates, indeed applauds, federal intervention to ban nationwide a procedure found necessary and proper in certain cases by the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists.”
Oh, teenage girl gets preggers and decides to end the life inside of her so she can go party some more. If it IS a matter of life or death for the mom, I agree.
"In his statement, Obama said he was “extremely concerned that this ruling will embolden state legislatures to enact further measures to restrict a woman’s right to choose, and that the conservative Supreme Court justices will look for other opportunities to erode
Roe v. Wade</SPAN>, which is established federal law and a matter of equal rights for women.” I disagree. The baby has no voice in the matter, and it is a living entity. Reaction to Court’s Abortion Ruling Falls Along Predictable Party Lines - New York Times Quote:
