A victory
'Partial-birth' abortion ban upheld.
For those who think this is just a corner case, read this:
"More than 1 million abortions are performed in the United States each year, according to recent statistics. Nearly 90 percent of those occur in the first 12 weeks of pregnancy, and are not affected by Wednesday's ruling. The Guttmacher Institute says 2,200 dilation and extraction procedures - the medical term most often used by doctors - were performed in 2000, the latest figures available."
And let's not forget that this was a 5x4 vote. That means this would never be possible without Bush.
For those who think that babies are just "balls of cells" this is probably bad news. After all, some women will have to actually acknowledge the consequences of their acts. God knows, maybe they will have to go through the murderous process of giving up these babies for adoption instead of killing them.
For me, this means that thousands of lives were saved. I know people seem to be more interested in death, but to me this is great news.

"The procedure at issue involves partially removing the fetus intact from a woman's uterus, then crushing or cutting its skull to complete the abortion.
Abortion opponents say the law will not reduce the number of abortions performed because an alternate method - dismembering the fetus in the uterus - is available and, indeed, much more common."
Que coisa bestial... Fiquei enojada.
Liberals make me sick.
