I’m starting to see a lot more double and even triple posts lately. It seems there are so many that there has to be a software issue or something.
It is that way everywhere.I have no idea how it got to be that way but your average fast food resturant is inpected more than the abortion clinics are....
It truly is genius. Who would ever think of it?
Why stop there? You don’t value the lives of babies in the other 7 states?
Excellent.
Can this go both ways?
Some other state imposes sudden, random requirements on a newspaper, church or gun range? Felony charges for noncompliance.
Just asking.

Just what I was thinking. Opening the door to giving government power of any kind is an incredibly dangerous thing. Abortion is an evil on a par with the Nazi ovens but so is government power abuse
We're indebted to Catholic higher education for the global baby-slaughter enthusiasts. It challenges me: how to pray, when all I can think of are the Imprecatory Psalms.
The entire balance of State vs Federal power that the Founding Fathers built into our system was destined to collapse once Senators were elected by voters rather than appointed by the State legislatures. That change made it inevitable that Senators would put the Federal Government ahead of their State in every case. They became, with rare exceptions, bulwarks of Federal power rather than representatives of their State first and foremost. That's exactly why even conservative Senators don't think in terms of rolling back Federal power. They see themselves as having been elected to use the Federal government to enrich and otherwise benefit their State rather than seeing themselves as the main line of defense against the Federal government encroachment on State Rights. The fact that they are elected for six year terms only makes sense if the State legislature can recall them.
You can't destroy a major foundational element the Founding Fathers thought through and made a part of the Constitution without, in essence, rewriting everything because the Constitution is an integrated system, not a Rube Goldberg assemblage of whatever is convenient at the moment. Nevertheless, the "progressive" agenda was best served by nationalizing State Senators and so, propaganda prevailed and State Senators were nationalized the same way fascists nationalize industries and banana plantations in third world chitholes.
The disaster of Federalized public education is the perfect example of what Federalizing Senators made possible. Only after the 17th Amendment did "progressives" start their national campaign of hand wringing and weeping over the States assisting private schools. They fostered fear with pictorial descriptions of "the great evil" that Catholic (Irish, Southern,and Eastern European immigrants), Confucian (Chinese immigrants), African (apes who progressive eugenics teaches are an evolutionary dead end), Pentecostal (demon worshipers rolling on the floor with demons), and Jewish (the usual slanders) run schools would cause. The solution they sold was public funding and public control of schools to ensure that such "American Values" as Evolution, Fabian Socialism, racial purity, and so on were taught. Where is the Constitutional power to micromanage the schools in every State and how well has Federalizing all schools worked out? Senators who were looking out for their State wouldn't have let this sort of all powerful Federal control develop nor would you see things like the Senator from West Virginia voting to destroy the coal industry.
People complain about the situation but don't stop to analyze how it was the fundamental changes fascists calling themselves "progressives" sold the public during the twentieth century that totally revised our form of government and laid the foundations for what we're seeing now. Maybe most people aren't even capable of any real analysis any more since public education long ago stopped teaching people to think rather that teaching them what to think.
Repeal the 17th Amendment and you rip the throat out of the Federal monster along with 80% of the power the fascist democrats have amassed over the past century.
JMHO

It’s miraculous!
“On down 49 to go.”
$8. Virginia already did something similar.
It's the Ying-Yang balance of life, a common theme in revealed religions.
Now, about Pelosi and Sebelius ~ Pelosi has an excuse. Sebelius does not.
Nancy's father was what is known as a "siciliano protectore" ~ a thug who protected the interests of organized crime. I am sure as mayor of Baltimore he taught Nancy how it's really done ~ and she never realized there's a big difference between right and wrong. Subsequent education at a Catholic women's college would hardly be able to dent that problem.
Now Sebelius ~ she invented her evil on her own ~ her education was just something to sough off like old skin.
Then, too, there's a good possibility that Sebelius would have been diagnosed in an earlier time as "possessed". Nancy simply uses so much botox she can no longer sense anger. Seems you need something other than a numb space between your eyes to do that!
It's probably already too late for Kathleen to come up with a deathbed conversion, but Nancy can pay penance by coming across with evidence of Democrat crimes sufficient to put half of Capitol Hill in prison ~ anything less than that and I'm afraid she's as doomed as Kathleen.
On deathbed conversions, see tagline quote by Flannery O’Connor.
“How long until a federal judge determines otherwise?
Next week?”
Only because it’s Friday afternoon of a long weekend.
LOL touche’ I forgot abot the oher 7 but you can’t blame me I didn’t graduate from Harvard....
What do you mean? These laws have ben on the books since surgery began to be a more routine thing.Why abortion clinics which do out patient surgical procedures were ever exempted in the first place I have no idea but now they have to conform to the same laws that a place doing any other out patient surgical pocedure.Not a stretch of regulation at all IMHO.
Sounds like the same tactics liberals use in making their laws...good for Kansas! Fight fire with fire!
What I mean is that when you allow any government agency to have authority over one small thing they will expand that authority over whatever they can until they are controlling things they were never meant to have any authority over at all.
Remember the DMV was established simply as a means to determine ownership of automobiles and now they have the right to go through your car every year for "inspection" and even shove a sniffer up your tailpipe to make sure it doesn't have an unapproved smell. Quite far from their original purpose -- And don't get me started on TSA.
That would be your state here in Ohio that is not done.In fact only a few states do do that....
but they could. That’s why you don’t even want to open the door to government power. If they don’t have it they can’t abuse it.
