CHANGING OF THE GUARD
Pro-lifers not thrilled
with Gonzales choice

Bush's pick for attorney general upheld abortion on Texas court
Pro-life activists are criticizing President Bush's choice of Alberto Gonzales to replace John Ashcroft as attorney general, worrying the White House counsel will not aggressively uphold the administration's anti-abortion stance.

Gonzales is a former member of the Texas Supreme Court, where he voted to allow a teenager to get an abortion without notifying her parents, circumventing the notification law in that state. At the time he criticized the position taken by his colleague on the court, Priscilla Owen, who voted against allowing the abortion. Gonzales said dissenting from his majority opinion "would be an unconscionable act of judicial activism."
His comments later were used by Democrats in the U.S. Senate who blocked Owen's confirmation to the 5th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals.

Chuck Baldwin, a pastor and columnist, slammed Gonzales, citing the Texas case and stating, "Gonzales is anything but pro-life." (excerpt)

I am concerned about his upholding ROE, not whether he is pro-life or pro-choice.

Dont you think many personally pro-life judges have voted to uphold abortion laws becasue they were tied by ROE.

Again what make you think Rhenquist is pro-life? Maybe he is pro-choice but understands the role of the judiciary.

You really have a legit source in Baldwin.... Didn't he run on the Constitution Party ticket as the VP Candidate with Pertouka the guy that turned his two step childern over to the state of Maryland?

A more important question is have you read the opinion in the case you cite and follow the logic of the decision that was made. Plus what he said regarding judicial activism. Until you do please don't fall for everything that is said about it.
