"Gonzales is a former member of the Texas Supreme Court, where he voted to allow a teenager to get an abortion without notifying her parents, circumventing the notification law in that state."

Yet another lie.

The State of Texas' Parental Notification Act includes an exception to the statute. If the young woman can prove in a private hearing to a district judge that she is "mature and sufficiently well informed", the judge can grant her a waiver and the abortion may be performed without her parent's knowledge.

Gonzales did not circumvent the law at all.

Is there as much evidence now that
Albert Gonzales would uphold abortion were he on the Supreme Court (and he may be yet) as there was in 1990, when the first George Bush nominated the ultraliberal David Souter?
