[E.G.C.]

Here are some additional thoughts on this subject.

Apparently, there are some people who seem to think that's it's O.K. for goverment to tell people what they can or can't do with the land that they purchased.

Well, whether anyone wants to believe it or not the vast majority of Americans DO NOT think so and anyone says otherwise is a bald faced pathlogical liar.

The enviro-wacko agenda that so many people seem to condone and sanction was rejected outright with the November 5th election. The public has spoken and they have stated emphactically they do not want these enviro-wackos setting policy for this country.

And I will tell you that enviro-wacko federal judge (I'll bet he's one of those X42 apppointees) needs to get his butt thrown off the bench.

We need judges who will interpet the Constitution, not judges who legislate from bench. This judge is not one of us.

Arizona Judge Upholds Parent Consent Law

by The Associated Press
Friday, August 10, 2001

TUCSON, Ariz. (AP) - A federal judge Thursday upheld a law requiring girls younger than 18 to get permission from a parent or judge before they have an abortion.

U.S. District Judge Raner Collins ruled that the law is constitutional. Abortion rights supporters had filed a lawsuit challenging it.

"This is great news for protecting the health of minor girls who are best served by the wisdom and concern of a parent," said Cathi Herrod, an attorney with The Center for Arizona Policy who was the primary author of the 1999 law.

Arizona's parental consent law requires written permission from a minor's parent or guardian for an abortion. Girls also can get approval from a Superior Court judge. No consent is necessary if there is a medical emergency or if the pregnancy resulted from a sexual assault.

Planned Parenthood intended to review the decision with its lawyers, organization vice president Beth Meyer said.

The law "will undoubtedly harm some of our state's young people," said the group's president and CEO, Brian S. Howard. It "will be most harmful to young women from dysfunctional families, households marked by abuse and neglect and that are sometimes families in name only."
