"When I point out that the ONLY PBA permitted by this bill is when the mother's life is in danger, you call it a mile wide loophole...which is it then?"

It takes 3 DAYS to perform a partial birth abortion. Obviously, someone with an emergency medical condition doesn't have three days to resolve it. The only point in doing a PBA is to deliver a dead baby.

As for loopholes, the leading third trimester abortionist, "Tiller the Killer," isn't worried about that: LINK

Only a truly lousy, vile, evil and despicible "doctor" could justify such a barbaric act. I trust tiller has the shock and awe of a eternal life in agony on judgement day.

FR seems to be able to read the fine print. It would appear that the PBA still lives and the ban has no teeth. I had such high hopes. It may be a start but I was hoping for a crushing defeat.
I must admit that I am not suprised. It would seem that our politicians are pros at bread and circuses but adept failures at everything else.
I wonder how much longer our Creator will continue to protect a country that turns its back on him and actually murders his children while still in the womb.
PBA sickens me. I was ashamed when men and women in congress and the senate actually talked about it as if it was a noble thing.
What happened to "its for the children". Surely sticking a fork in a babies head as the childs legs and arms wiggle and the child screams for the first breath of air outside the womb that will never come is not for the children.
It must be for selfish, self centered women and greedy "doctors". I find it very hard to describe a person who could actually perform such a act as a doctor.
And I thought hillary clintons husband was shameless.

"Obviously, someone with an emergency medical condition doesn't have three days to resolve it."

Which means that every single time that excuse is used to perform a PBA, the resoning will not only be questioned, but the finding challenged and most likely defeated, leading to jail time for the physician performing the procedure, as well as financial penalties via law suits, as allowed for in the bill. Some parts of this fight belong to us.

As for Tiller...there will always be people like him, butchers.

I agree with the position taken by the pro-life activist on the article, and suggest that we need to demand enforcement of this law at the State level, even if it means the enactment of further legislation at the State level requiring second or even third opinions by outside parties on the dangers to the mother's life.

It is also heartening to read that anti-abortion forces are threatening to challenge the bill.

P.S. the next logical step is to ban the procedure performed by this Tiller (rhymes with killer).
