Naturally, nobody seems to care that every young unborn child's life is constantly in danger so long as the abortionazis run rampant.
Health? What about the health of the child!
Catholic Ping - let me know if you want on/off this list
Thomas Jefferson warned us about tyrants like this judge.
Well, it's a real killer on the baby's health. But the mother? How does it help her health to have a dead baby versus a live baby? He's out already.
These judges certainly lack the wisdom of Solomon.
Was Kopf the same judge who did this a few years back? Is this more evidence of judge shopping?
It will be a long, long fight with many reversals.

My copy of the constitution does not have anything about Womans health in it.
I did find a reference to premaditated murder in the penal code.
In what circumstances is a woman's health in jeapordy if her baby is delivered via section versus crushing the baby's head and sucking it out of the womb?
This is pure unadulterated horse manure. If so, please tell me when that might be. These secularists are going to be the undoing of this land.

Adding even greater emphasis to the importance of re-electing the President.
Imagine the federal judges that John Kerry would appoint!
Thanks for the post on this important topic.
If you can describe the procedure you already know that the health of the mother is not involved, and should not be the basis for an exception. It is a 3 day long procedure, with the first two days spent dilating with seaweed in order to pull the child out. If your health was threatened would you choose a 3 day long risky procedure?
Another liberal activist judge using his personal beliefs to legislate from the bench. This is a crisis which is going to get heated in the future.
"If our nation be destroyed, it would be from the judiciary."

I heard an account a couple months ago, a story about Bishop Fulton Sheen, I believe, who was in an airplane. It was Friday, (not sure if it was lent) and the stewardess offered him a meal, he thought a moment and declined saying that he would fast. The lady sitting next to him, also declined her meal and stated that she would fast with him. Delighted, the bishop then engaged in conversation with her and to his horror, learned that she was a witch fasting FOR abortions.
This is not only a physical war but a spiritual one.
Not to mention the fact that the partial birth abortion is used at a point in pregnancy when the baby is quite often quite "viable". I shudder to think that my daughter who was born two months early could have LEGALLY been aborted with one of these late term "partial birth" abortions.
If a woman can endure a partial birth - they can endure a regular birth.
Kopf may have shot himself in the foot with the above statement! Who decides if the fetus is indisputably viable?
Perhaps Dr. Carhart should be hauled into court whenever he performs a "D & X". Make him prove that the fetus wasn't viable. Forensic evidence may say otherwise!
