Excuse me, but states had laws against abortion until 1973; don't you believe that it's up to the states to pass laws, not the Federal Government?

Why should the states have to get permission from the Feds to outlaw partial birth abortion, or to allow mothers to have INFORMED consent before having the procedure?

Do you realize how much better technology has become since that decision?

Because we have a Constitution that protects us from Extremist Religous Zealots.
