NASHVILLE, Tenn. -- Tennessee can sell license plates that say ``Choose Life,'' even though it doesn't offer one with an abortion rights message, a federal appeals court ruled Friday.
The American Civil Liberties Union of Tennessee had sued over the specialty license plate approved by the Legislature in 2003 and won a ruling against the tag from a lower court that said it illegally promoted only one side of the abortion debate.
``Although this exercise of government one-sidedness with respect to a very contentious political issue may be ill-advised, we are unable to conclude that the Tennessee statute contravenes the First Amendment,'' Judge John M. Rogers said in a 2-1 ruling by a three-judge panel of the 6th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in Cincinnati.

"Choose Death" is exactly the plate they should offer.
Rock!
The ACLU is deeply saddened that people will be encouraged to not kill their children.
How about "KILL BABIES!"
I suspect they pro-choice side would want something to keep the focus on the woman.
Evidently Rogers is a Bush appointee, nominated in 2004. This shows the importance of good judicial appointments at every level.

Maybe the motto "A Woman's Right to Choose," with a portrait of a pair of knife-wielding lesbians in the background?
well if they did that i bet it would not even get close to SCOTUS.

Perfect tag for my new Prius here in TN-- shocks the lefties who assume I'm one of them.
Exactly. Would they like a "Choose Abortion" tag?
Thanks for the ping!
