The 9th circuit?!??!

Did I read that wrong?

Did I slip into an alternate universe here?

As the previous posts state. The 9th circuit finally delivers a verdict with common sense.

A three judge panel. Must have gotten two good judges. Toss of the dice.

Court gives legal victory to abortion foes

Foes, eh? What about 'archenemies' or 'diabolical villains?'

Holy health of the mother ruse, Batman! The abortion foes are back!

Will Lockyer do us all the favor of bringing this to the USSC?

Wouldn't it be grand to have this affirmed there?

Only with abortion do liberals believe medical professionals have no right to profess their conscience. The killing of the unborn takes precedence over the right of those who take an oath to preserve human life to refrain from the practice.

As is typical of most things spewed by the MSM, this is a poorly written article that is devoid of information needed to form an educated opinion one way or the other. Oh, Reuters, go figure...

If doctors who are morally opposed to abortion state so as a condition of their employment, they certainly should not be penalized for refusing to perform abortions.

If hospitals or clinics do not perform abortions as a matter of policy, and publicly state so, then they should not be penalized.

If a hospital does not exclude abortion as a matter of policy, but the only doctor(s) that they make available refuse to do so, then there is a problem. Either the doctor or hospital is liable, depending on circumstance.

Now, (with acknowledgment that I may be out to lunch based on a poorly written article), if a doctor accepts employment with the reasonable expectation by his employer that he will perform abortions when medically necessary, and subsequently refuses to do so on moral grounds, then he should be dismissed immediately based on the fact that he defrauded his employer.

The 9th Circuit?? I'd say Hell had frozen, but I was there the other day (MI) and it was pretty warm.
