"All humans should be protected by love and by law, and this amendment is a historic effort to ensure equal rights for every person," Burton said. Amen!

And this again ties in with battles on judicial nominees to the federal bench. If passed this law will almost certainly be challenged, and federal court interpretations about abortion rights including Roe Vs. Wade could be challanged. Stay tuned.
Obama/Clinton will appoint liberals who will overturn such laws. McCain, hopefully, will appoint conservative judges.

I have an uneasy feeling the MSM will speak loudly and often to defeat this measure,the DEMOCRITICS in congress will pass a bill to squash it, and a loony left judge will declare it unconstitutional.

You are probably right, but the reality is that it is necessary to have such a law struck down. A law MUST be appealed to the Supreme Court if Roe v. Wade is to be overturned.

Its a ground-breaking measure for Colorado. Of course, in this state, the Left will spend a lot of money to defeat it since its dogma is abortion on demand and to write the right to life for the unborn into the state constitution would be a major setback for them. If it passes, a definite win for the Culture Of Life.

I signed this petition at a local Sam’s club. Upon exiting my local Presbyterian church I saw people who refused to sign the petition without a reason. When I saw this, it was kind of disheartening. This is good news though that this his gone through to be put up for a vote.

and if it passes some jerk left wing whackjob judge(s) who probably haven’t read the constitution in 20 years will once again over turn the rule of the people who obviously are too stupid to understand the constitution or the intentions of the founding fathers.

Kristi Burton is 20 years old. She's a remarkable young woman and she took this idea where people looked at her and thought it was crazy, it would never even get on the ballot. It has and I'm proud of my state for being the first in the nation to put a personhood constitutional amendment on the ballot and this is probably the only thing I will vote for in November. Its about time!

Its Amendment 48. I urge all Coloradans to support it.

... and a loony left judge will declare it unconstitutional. Oh that will almost certainly happen. However, the issue WILL be on the ballot in November, which will hurt the obamessiah in a state that he is very much counting on turning from red to blue.
This is great news!

I checked out Daily Kos. The lib argument is pro-lifers want to protect a blastocyst - a clump of fertilized cells that's not even a recognizable person and they want to outlaw abstinence! There's a difference between something that's not life and has human potentiality, once its fertilized. I'd like to know when the Left think personhood begins. As for abstinence, its funny that the same people who believe in safe sex are now concerned people won't be able to NOT have sex if the personhood amendment is passed. Just wanted to give a heads up on what libs are thinking about it today.

It is a simple, one-sentence amendment to the state constitution:
“The term ‘Person’ or ‘Persons’ shall include
any human from the time of fertilization.”
Wow!

“and they want to outlaw abstinence!”
I’m kind of confused (not hard to do when trying to relate a liberal position! LOL). Which group are those on Daily Kos claiming wants to outlaw abstinence? This just doesn’t make sense at all to me. Maybe I’ll go over to DK later and read the posts - not sure if I want to get that upset tonight though... ;)

My wife’s signature, as well as mine, are on the rolls supporting this initative. Kudos to the pro-life community in Colorado for supporting and moving this important matter.
Don’t color Colorado blue prematurely. Measures like this will bring out the social conservatives.
Too bad so many other states do not have a rallying point like this for their social conservatives.
