Short version: Gonzales is on certain pro-lifers' s**t list because he applied the Texas parental consent law as written, not as those particular pro-lifers wished it had been written.
If interested, please see post #44. Here's an excerpt from the link:
"F. Respecting the Rule of Law
The United States Supreme Court has observed that abortion is a divisive and highly-charged issue. See Casey, 505 U.S. at 866, 869. Thus, we recognize that judges' personal views may inspire inflammatory and irresponsible rhetoric. Nevertheless, the issue's highly-charged nature does not excuse judges who impose their own personal convictions into what must be a strictly legal inquiry. We might personally prefer, as citizens and parents, that a minor honor her parents' right to be involved in such a profound decision. But the Legislature has said that Doe may consent to an abortion without notifying her parents if she demonstrates that she is mature and sufficiently well informed. As judges, we cannot ignore the statute or the record before us. Whatever our personal feelings may be, we must "respect the rule of law." Casey, 505 U.S. at 868."
I don't like the fact that the COURTS decide if a minor is mature, or not anyway, and more so, when it results in the death of an innocent pre-born baby, as I am pro-life.
It seems as if "Big Brother" is raising America's children more and more.
