Attorney General nominee Loretta Lynch joined a group of former U.S. attorneys in signing an amicus brief presented to the Supreme Court in 2006 in the case of Gonzales v. Carhart that argued that the federal ban on partial-birth abortion was unconstitutional because its language was too vague.
In their brief, for example, Lynch and the other former U.S. attorneys argued that the term living fetus was too vague to be understood by those responsible for following and enforcing the law.
Congress enacted the Partial-Birth Abortion Ban Act in 2003 with broad bipartisan support. Senators Joe Biden of Delaware, Harry Reid of Nevada, and Patrick Leahy of Vermont all voted for it.

The Senate needs to confirm this baby killer so that the Rev. Al can end his hunger strike!
Yeah, not like the phrase "I deserve to be confirmed as Attorney General and anyone who thinks otherwise is a racist."
lol
Which word confuses her? Living or fetus?
From the top down...everyone hired by this administration is an exact copy of Obama. Go Cruz!!
I think, like most Democorrupts, she is still stuck on "is."
Maybe Ms Lynch should watch up close a partial birth abortion so she can hear and see the life go out of the baby. That should clear it up the vague. Lynch; what an appropriate name for that POS.
Why not print this questionaire up encircle your answers and send it to your US Senator
Dear Senator
INS...Amnesty.. Forget about Ebola
We dont allow cattle to enter without a background health and ancestry check which we also reqiure of legal immigrants who wait years and still go thru health and record checks. We also require that any legal immingrant demonstrate prior to entry that they offer a contribution to our society and not dependency upon it .
The point being there is legislation enacted by congress that is supposed to be followed regulating immigration that any Presidential appointee is to follow who has been sworn to uphold and defend the constitution.
Yet were letting children and gang bangers in without doing any of this which has resulted in dispersing virulent new diseases (measles) and drug use which has resulted in unreported cases in schools where these illegal kids were placed.. Plus shoved a severe financial strain on local governments where they are placed .
Should any candidate for Attorney General supporting these practices be denied confirmation ?(Yes) (No) . Should the senate abandon the 60 vote majority for the “nuclear option” used by Reid when majority leader of the senate to any such candidate to be Attorney General supporting the above by applying the simple majority Reid rule. But citing the Hanen court injunction ruling that would restrict the use of the Reid rule only when such a ruling by a Judge were made ? (Yes) (No)
Should those given this bypassed favored treatment who miss their INS hearing be deported fortwith ? (Y) (N).. ? Denied re-entry (Y)(N) ? Snould that also apply to any illegal convicted of a felony (Y)(N)
In countries where an American citizen decides to be a legal emigree never mind being a seasonal visitor still are denied voting privledges. Own land in their own name. Face steep fines before getting kicked out let alone denied income and energy subsistance including food stamps, or bring in family members .
I (do) (dont) believe we should allow such full citizenship privledges mentioned above which are denied by the country of national origin of the above, to a legal American immigrant , deny such full citizen privledges to any (emigree) (seasonal vistor) (illegal) if their country does not allow those same privledges to any citizen of the United States, .
While such a position will be condemed as defacto deportation particularly by the political establishment .Would you continue to support a Senator who refuses to support such restrictions ? (Y) (N) Does that also include erecting border barriers such as fencing designed to discourage surrepticious or uncontolled entry ? (Yes) (No)
Should any American citizen which goes overseas to join a foreign entity fighting against the United States (such as ISIS) Be denied re-entry (Y)(N) and their citizenship revoked? (Y) (N) Should that person be charged with treason (Y)(N)
Very Truly Yours For Restoring the value of American citizenship and Conservative Government
She’s probably hopelessly confused by the meaning of “is”.
If you want to really confuse her, say the word “Constitution”.
Sounds to me like “living” is a redundant modifier.
Also, what is this “fetus”?
If it’s not a human baby, then what is it?
There’s really not much chance it will come out as a wombat.
Good heavens! I wasn’t aware she isn’t fluent in English ...
That is true and redundancy in definitions adds clarity to a subject so the claim of vagueness must be more an admission of ignorance than one of legal expertise.
If its not a human baby, then what is it? Theres really not much chance it will come out as a wombat.
One could smash a condor egg and claim it was just "an undifferentiated mass of cells" and see how that defense works out.
The list, Ping
Let me know if you would like to be on or off the ping list
It appears that “living” confuses her more than “fetus.”
(a) an intact fetus with a heartbeat or some other form of ‘life,’
(b) disarticulated fetus with a heartbeat or some other sign of ‘life”’)
Does this ever happen except by abortion??
(c) simply a collection of living cells
This one clearly can’t be right. There is either a full head or more, or the legs and the trunk past the navel. So it can’t be just a collection of living cells.
(d) living fetus as “pulsing umbilical cord” or heartbeat
Does this ever happen and (a) not happen? Are there any doctors/nurses out there?
I must say this law is extraordinarily specific compared to many others I have read. If the law is unconstitutional, then THOUSANDS of others need to be wiped off the books too.
Nobody who 'wants' a child ever says they're having a "fetus"....or "I'm having an unborn"....their pregnancy announcements always say..."we're having a baby!"
God made certain things in life pretty simple and easily understood....only man makes them into something they are not.
Sheesh this administration is jam packed of blacks, and Muslims....and various shades of suntans.
I say this administration is racist and not hiring enough light skinned people.
