Note how The GOP are so quiet as they usurped women's rights
They can now force a woman to deliver regardless of her health or the baby's health, and her decision.

The GOP male USSC just told women to STFU. They are the "deciders". The sole woman's opinion was ignored.

2. I couldn't agree with you more, Erika!
Did you see PRESIDENT Clinton on Larry King? He was talking about when he signed the bill that made late-term abortions ok if a DOCTOR and his PATIENT decided it was necessary. There is so much misinformation out there about the procedure, it makes me crazy! I was around in the old days before Roe v. Wade...I can't believe we're going to go back there.

...his admission of that made me cry. I always respected his stance on choice. The fact that he had enough respect for women to uphold, support and trust us to make our own decisions.

How great...the guy that's been a failure at everything else in his life(shrub), manages to dismantle women's rights--just like he said he would.

(((sigh)))

I'm going to find Dear Mr. pResident on Youtube...:cry:

6. Yes. the GOP chose to portray women as sluts
They still do. Sad when the two women I knew who had the procedure was one whose baby wouldn't survive the birthing process, forcing her to deliver a dead stressed baby, and the other one whose baby had extreme spida bifada who could survive birth for only a short while and being in extreme pain.

Well the USSC GOP Court now can force women to suffer like their Taliban counterparts.

4. Well said
They've always used the abortion question as the weapon against women. Now we have nothing to lose
except this farce of a political party.

5. And worse...
Edited on Fri Apr-20-07 01:09 AM by George Oilwellian
if a woman's baby is dead in utero, they can't take it vaginally, they'll have to cut the mother open to get it. Republican men are terrified of anything pertaining to the vagina.

On edit: and if by chance the mother spontaneously aborts, I'm sure it will be a wonderful experience for her to go through the labor of delivering a dead baby.

7. But that's the GOP Catholic Male Supreme Court
Women aren't really humans. They do provide a service in being a receptacle of male off springs. Don't let them think they are anything more than that. The sluts (GOP male off).

8. One giant step forward
for neocon men, one giant step backward for we women of America. What are they going to take away from us next? The right to vote, perhaps?

9. I imagine they are trumpeting in the Christian media,where it counts and keeping quiet where
everyone else can hear and hope we don't notice.

10. I am guessing that they are playing some of their last cards
I am also quite sure * will pull one more very egregious act before he is literally pushed out of office, the pot is starting to boil if you haven't noticed.

11. SCOTUS = A Bunch Of Old Whores
...they have trashed the Constitution and made the courthouse a whorehouse. I lost respect for them when they retained the smirking president and they have gone down hill since then. I have no respect for those pigs in black robes.

They think they should play doctor when they are all nothing but a bunch of elitist idiots. I would LOVE to do a Loretta, and hang their privies from the nearest flag pole. What a brunch of horses asses!

Impeach their self righteous asses, strip them to their skivvies and send them to Guantanamo Bay. Maybe they should get a little of the same treatment they are so ready to give other Americans.

Bastards!

12. I don't believe that's true
the legislation outlawed ONE procedure for terminating the pregnancy - there are other, often less desirable procedures.

The law is stupid, the decision is stupid, but it does NOT force a woman to give birth.
