Those children will live and we'll go out of business! Doomed, I say!

Dear doug,
As early as this week, the South Dakota legislature is expected to send a bill that would ban all abortions to the desk of South Dakota's anti-choice governor who has said, "[a]bortion...should always be illegal."
In the words of the ban's sponsor, "'I'm convinced that the timing is right for this,' noting the appointments of Chief Justice John G. Roberts and Justice Samuel A. Alito, Jr. to the [Supreme] court." (New York Times, 2/22/06). Click here to help us fight politicians who won't respect a woman's right to choose.
Make no mistake: this ban is a direct attempt to overturn Roe v. Wade. And, as I know you are aware, it is only the beginning. I am asking you today for your help. Please make an emergency gift to save our rights, our freedoms, our right to choose.
The good news today is that a generous donor has made a $100,000 challenge grant to match your donation right now. So this is your chance to double the impact of your gift. Please, give generously.
My quote in today's Washington Post said it all, "When you see them have a ban that does not include exceptions for rape or incest or the health of the mother, you understand that elections do matter...We will be very active in '06 and in '08 in electing candidates that represent the views of most Americans."
Those who want to take away women's privacy and freedom wasted no time in putting the wheels in motion on plans that will ultimately lead to the dismantling or even overturning of Roe v. Wade. And to the women of South Dakota -- well, it already seems like Roe is overturned. This is a state where anti-choice activists have already made it nearly impossible to access reproductive-health care, let alone abortion services. If passed by the governor, the ban would outlaw abortion altogether without an adequate exception to protect women's lives and with no exception for women whose health is in danger or are pregnant due to rape or incest!
And this anti-choice victory means anti-choice forces will move on to other states to deny the rights of women across America.
If there was ever a moment that should galvanize pro-choice Americans, this is it. It's time to elect pro-choice candidates who will respect women's health and women's right to choose. I hope that I can count on you to stand with the women of South Dakota, and to stand with NARAL Pro-Choice America.
Help us take our work to defend a woman's right to choose twice as far. Please, click here to make your emergency contribution today -- our generous donor will make your gift go twice as far, when it's needed most. Thank you.
Sincerely,
Nancy Keenan
President, NARAL Pro-Choice America
So.....
How much did ya send 'em?
;-)
Looks like NARAL is going down for the third time. Oh darn.
I'll bet he sent the whole hundred G's. :<D
Hey NARAL - just stay out of South Dakota. Ya buncha harpies!
And this anti-choice victory means anti-choice forces will move on to other states to deny the rights of women across America.
"When they pry that cold dead baby from my warm living hands!"
The murderess speaks.
If this is based on timing, it's pretty lousy timing, because we won't get RvW overturned till Stevens is replaced. Which, of course, could happen at any time.
"Looks like NARAL is going down for the third time."
What is this, the third time they've met with Bubba?
They still haven't learned how to capitalize your name. :)
(Denny Crane: "I Don't Want To Socialize With A Pinko Liberal Democrat Commie. Say What You Like About Republicans. We Stick To Our Convictions. Even When We Know We're Dead Wrong.")
What idiot bull$#!t.
WTF is NARAL e-mailing a Freeper for, bud?
I want to see Roe tossed and let each state decide. However, I am concerned that the timing might still not be right to place this before the Supreme Court. I not sure how the new guys will vote. Also, even if they are pro-life, this still only would make 4 out of 9 justices. Who would be a possible swing vote?
LOL
It may be that abortion on demand may go out quietly, sort of dissolve out of existence instead of the much anticipated big show down in the SC.
I have no idea how I got on their list. Perhaps it was the crank emails sent to them. :)
Alright, already. We're tired of the Lewinsky jokes.
"Who would be a possible swing vote?"
Alito.
Scalia, Thomas and Kennedy have already voted against 'partial birth abortion'.
It is assumed that Roberts and Alito will join them.
