"CHAPTER 74. PARTIAL-BIRTH ABORTIONS

‘‘Sec.

‘‘1531. Partial-birth abortions prohibited.

‘‘§ 1531. Partial-birth abortions prohibited

[Luis Gonzalez]

What part of "partial birth abortions prohibited" do you not understand?

[Luis Gonzalez]

Bill, the absolute POS that he is, is trying to divert attention away from a Bush victory.

[Luis Gonzalez]

Busj promised to ban partial birth abortions, partial birth abortions have been banned.

Where's the betrayal you lying SOS?

[John Lenin]

Are you a DU plant or something ?

[Luis Gonzalez]

Have you seen this?

Banning partial birth abortions (as promised) is a betrayal?

[Luis Gonzalez]

Bill is worse than that, at least most people at DU are honestly stupid.

[gsrinok]

I agree, and I'm happy to see this bill. It's not that I have any particular complaints about it, it's just that we have a long journey ahead of us to make abortion illegal, an even longer way to go to make all Americans see it for the evil that it is. This bill is a good start.

[onyx]

Are you president of the dementedly obtuse?

Your posted article is dated May 2003. Get current!

Partial birth murder has been banned.

[Jeff Gordon]

We cannot vote for Bush anymore!

Bush can only the sign or not sign the bill as handed to him. Would rather he just not sign this bill at all?

[omegatoo]

But Bill IS stupid.
Honestly.

[John Lenin]

It's part of the DNC plan, like when they call in to radio shows and act like conservatives to bash Bush. Like people are really that naieve to believe them.

[Luis Gonzalez]

"This bill is a good start."

And it's no betrayal.

What's funny about the abortion issue is that conservatives abandon all semblance of any support for State's rights, and demand that the Fedral government intervene.

The issue of abortion should be left to each individual State.

"And heartbreaking as it is for me to say this, neither does Mr. Santorum care. Nor, for that matter, any other Republican who tries to paint the possible passage of a clearly flawed and ineffectual bill - that will save not one child from this barbaric procedure - as a victory for anyone or anything but their campaign managers, who will no doubt use the blockage or passage of this bill to play upon the ignorance and gullibility of their constituents again during the next election go-round.

Oh, and so will the other side, btw, when they paint Republicans as "extremists" for producing an "anti-choice" bill to begin with, even though it in fact does nothing more than hint to abortionists that they themselves will have to get a little more creative in their "choice" on how to stay on the legal side of an elective PBA. I say if the Republicans are going to get trashed by the Democrats, they might as well get trashed for something real.

Fraud Republic has the utter gall to shut out the truth about S.3 as "propaganda", and then uses a soft-soaped pro-Pubbie spin and the spectre of brutalized unborn babies - none of whom will be rescued by this Potemkin PBA ban being bandied about - to prop up the GOP and S.3 as any way effective about this issue. And to add insult to injury, they "coincidentally" present a "new" (actually old) column about morality being problematic in the pro-life debate just hours after Uncle Bill's original post got pulled and he got booted."

Sorry, Mercuria, but I ain't buying it. You're gonna have to explain to me how this legislation is a sell out and how Mr. Santorum and the rest of the Republicans are putting one over on us. This bill looks like it calls for a jail term for any doctor performing a partial birth abortion.

[Jim Robinson]

What do y'all think? Is Mercuria right about this? Is Mr. Santorum putting one over on us? Have we been betrayed by the Republicans? Looks to me like this bill says any doctor that uses the so-called partial birth abortion procedure to kill a baby gets fined or goes to jail.

[kattracks]

Looks to me like this bill says any doctor that uses the so-called partial birth abortion procedure to kill a baby gets fined or goes to jail.

Seems clear cut to me too.

For years we have been trying to get partial birth abortions banned. Now, when it's finally happened, it's seen as a loss, a betrayal?

I can only imagine what those who are screaming the loudest about the passage of this bill would have said if a bill hadn't been passed.

I detect something more than dissatisfaction with this particular bill behind all of the wailing and gnashing of teeth.

The author of this "material" is an '04 Constitution Party candidate for Congress from Oregon. Consequently, the motivation is anti-Republican propaganda.

A similar, if not exact, thread was pulled night before last. You might note the campaign page doesn't show up in the link posted.

The background of the author explains the splashy title of the article and post.

I'm asking for mercy on those who would get righteously indignant on this topic - the killing of babies. Compassion is deeply spiritual and always emotional, even to the point of righteous anger. Some of us DO understand that there are necessary political strategies, and timings, and an opposing group. But based on the topic, consider mercy for why there is blindness in this area, where some don't want to appear to compromise. I think they're blinded and swayed by the deep compassion that rises - it rises in all of us, especially on this topic. I'm not condoning poor judgement.

Just something to consider. spoken as a minister

[grania]

The fact is, we need more and 'better' Republicans on board to help pull the boat here and get it to 'safe harbor'.

That may be. The fact is, a lot of things that have passed...more aid to education, prescription drugs, AIDS money to Africa, etc....would've been strenuously fought by the Republicans if Clinton were still President.

This abortion bill from the Senate might be awful. But, it's a first step. I don't see how anyone can explain why GWB didn't sit the HOR and Senate down, quickly, after it was passed, and get something. The fact that something is signed (even if imperfect) would be a powerful message that this country cares about life. Instead, GWB went to the Mideast, then Africa, now it's summer recess. It will not be acceptable to say in September. Ooops....too late....wait for the next election.

[grania]

Partial birth murder has been banned.

Am I mistaken? I thought that the Senate and HOR hadn't gotten together on one bill to be signed yet, and until that happens PBA is not banned.
