Your slandering his parents who didn’t want the abortion. His parents were offering a place to stay, and babysitting while she went to school.
It wasn’t in this story, but an earlier story where his parents offered the help.
I hear you. I think I may be sick.
Matthew 18:6 “but whoever causes one of these little ones who believe in Me to stumble, it would be better for him to have a heavy millstone hung around his neck, and to be drowned in the depth of the sea.”
Mark 9:42 “Whoever causes one of these little ones who believe to stumble, it would be better for him if, with a heavy millstone hung around his neck, he had been cast into the sea.”
Vindication of Phil Kline? This is the abortionist that the Kansas RINOs protected by electing Paul Morrison as AG.
Don't know. Kansas abortion law is far too lax, and Tiller knows all the tricks. A late term can be done with the agreement of two doctors, and apparently Tiller had no problems getting that with this Dr. Sella around. In addtion, he had a number of physicians almost on retainer, one of the kinds of violations Morrison is prosecuting. Under 18, the abortion needs the approval of at least one parent, and this girl's mother was certainly willing to give her OK. Did Tiller violate the spirit of the law? Almost certainly, based on this. Did he violate the letter of the law? Probably not. Based on the story he seems to have covered his tracks by getting another physician to swear the fetus wasn't viable and of course no post mortum was done. So even Phill probably couldn't have prosecuted this one. But if you want to put people like Tiller out of business and keep them out, all you have to do is tighten up the law and remove the loopholes. Why shouldn't more that one second opinion be needed before a late term abortion? Why shouldn't an autopsy be required to establish that the reasons given why the fetus wasn't viable are, in fact, accurate? If you can't get rid of it entirely then at least make it much more difficult. Why isn't Phill and our GOP leadership even trying to do that?
So Kansas RINOs turned their backs on Phil Kline because he tried to prosecute abortionists instead of trying to get tougher legislation passed? I didn’t know KS RINOs were in favor of tougher anti-abortion laws and merely disagreed in principle with the enforcement of vague laws. Of course, the RINOs placed Morrison in charge, and thus won’t have to worry about any abortion laws (vague or otherwise) being enforced.
Tried to prosecute? After 4 years in office Phill ineptly files some misdemeanor charges as a political stunt, and they are promptly tossed out on a technicality that a first year law student could have avoided. That may sound like a tough prosecutor to you but it looks like an inept fool to me.
I didnt know KS RINOs were in favor of tougher anti-abortion laws and merely disagreed in principle with the enforcement of vague laws.
I haven't heard Phill or Kris come out with any suggestions for tightening up the loopholes so I guess they must be RINOs too?
Of course, the RINOs placed Morrison in charge, and thus wont have to worry about any abortion laws (vague or otherwise) being enforced.
And if Morrison's charges stick and Tiller goes to trial and gets convicted then what will you say? The RINOs did what Fightin' Phill Kline couldn't?
The hatred for Phil Kline is based in the abortion issue only.
A friend of mine had a conversation with someone that was spitting vitriol over Kline. My friend ended up being on the receiving end of the hate because she was able to present facts that refuted this woman’s hatred.
It’s clear that the Kline hater probably had an abortion herself and was bitter and ashamed. When you do something you know to be vile, you can handle it by getting right with the Lord, or you can spend the rest of your life justifying it.
My error then. I didn’t know the boy’s parent’s had lobbied for life.
Man, its a sad world.
