WASHINGTON - The Supreme Court cleared the way yesterday for an Indiana state law that places some of the nation's most severe restrictions on abortions.
They include requirements that a woman be counseled face-to-face about the risks and offered pictures of what her fetus might look like.
The high court turned down an appeal from abortion clinics in Indiana claiming the in-person counseling sessions would force some women to forgo abortions or to risk their health by postponing the procedure far into pregnancy.
The action means that Indiana may begin fully enforcing a law passed eight years ago that requires in-person counseling and an 18-hour waiting period before a woman can get an abortion.
Way to go SCOTUS and great news for Indiana. Now maybe other states will be encouraged to pass similar legistation. Every young lady contemplating an abortion should have the FReedon to have one final chance to choose life.
RICHMOND, Feb. 25 -- Gov. Mark R. Warner said today that he will sign legislation to move Virginia's presidential primary to Feb. 10, 2004, placing the state among those likely to choose the winning nominee from the Democratic Party's growing list of presidential hopefuls.
OK. Next February 10th we all diguise ourselves as RATs and vote for Al Sharpton!
Whoa...that's gonna have the femi-nazis up in arms!
Excellant.
Thanks for the ping, Sultan. First I heard of it today. I was on a 'no radios allowed' construction site. (buncha commies...)
