Proposition 73: Parental Notification for Abortion. If parental consent is required for a child to use a tanning booth or get her ears pierced, shouldn’t parents at least be notified if she’s getting an abortion? YES. Whether you’re pro-life or pro-choice, this should be the all-time no-brainer.

Yes, it should be a no-brainer. I'd like to see it pass, and then watch as the 9th Circus makes fools out of themselves again by attempting to strike it down. It's situations like this that really make the case for doing away with Roe vs Wade. Overturning that ruling won't outlaw abortion. All it would do is return the matter to state legislatures. And it would be rather difficult for them to prohibit abortion and enforce that prohibition, because women would be still able to go to any number of other states where it would be legal. But what it would do is give states a free hand to enact basic common sense legislation like Proposition 73 above, without being forced to water them down to the point of total ineffectiveness.

Man, I hope McClintock runs for some national office, and soon.

Someone help me out...what was the idea behind tenure to begin with? Why should ANYBODY be guaranteed their job no matter what. It's kinda UnAmerican.
