Now it is up to SCOTUS. The Circuit Courts could do nothing else.

The usual. This is why we've got to get that evil witch Ginsburg and her running dog lackey, the equally evil Stevens, off the court into retirement as soon as possible.

"W" needs two more appointments to lock in a change.

Pro-Life/Pro-Baby ping!

NY's Appeals Court has weighed in after the 9th's decision today...

Please FReepmail me if you would like to be added to, or removed from, the Pro-Life/Pro-Baby ping list...

Tuesday's ruling was marked by an unusually sharp dissent by Judge Chester J. Straub, who said he believed Congress' determination that the procedure was never medically necessary to protect a women's health was well founded and supported by a lower court ruling.

"Allowing a physician to destroy a child as long as one toe remains within the mother would place society on the path towards condoning infanticide," he said.

He added: "I find the current expansion of the right to terminate a pregnancy to cover a child in the process of being born morally, ethically and legally unacceptable."

I'm going to remember this Judge's name. A voice for the unborn on our courts. Imagine that. God Bless him.

Hmmm.... courts in New York and California, eh? Yup. That's certainly "middle America." /sarcasm

SCOTUS still favors abortion and perversion 5-4.

I agree. We need another conservative justice or two, and no more stealth candidates.

The Alito confirmation has shown that a stellar conservative can be confirmed, and it has also shown that the abortion card no longer has the same power it used to have. The Senate is more frightened of the pro-lifers, and the decent instincts of the average voter, than it is of NOW and NARAL. And rightly so.

He added: "I find the current expansion of the right to terminate a pregnancy to cover a child in the process of being born morally, ethically and legally unacceptable."

Let's put Judge Straub on the Supreme Court.

[Teacher317]

a judge who upheld the right to perform the procedure even as he described the procedure as "gruesome, brutal, barbaric and uncivilized."

as well as forbidden by proper statute... and yet it still must be protected? Exactly which other protected rights are brutal and barbaric? Care to explain that, judge?

Do they define "health" of the mother?

Physical health? Birth could result in pain afterall.

Mental Health?

Financial Health?

Spiritual Health?

Meta-physical Health?

9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals = The end of morality in this country; unless there is a change in the judiciary there.
