Requirement: Reasonable. Likely impact: Not very great.

New Florida law requires 24-hour waiting period before abortionStates can only go so far in restricting abortion so long as Roe v. Wade remains “the law of the land” as liberals like to say about it and other laws they agree with.

(Actually, if you want to get technical, Roe v. Wade is a court ruling, not a law. The fact that they call it a law demonstrates that they have no problem with the Judiciary doing the job of the Legislative branch so long as it fits their agenda. But I digress.)

So I applaud Florida for the law signed yesterday by Gov. Rick Scott, which will require women seeking an abortion to observe a 24-hour waiting period in which they might, maybe, perhaps (but probably not) give it some serious thought and maybe decide to carry the child to term.
