A Federal Judge in Lincoln, Nebraska on Wednesday became the third such judge to rule that the GOP/George W. Bush Late-Term Abortion Ban is unconstitutional.
The new law, struck down yet again, is similar to one that was struck down four years ago. Like that one, this one also refused to take into account the health of the woman requiring the procedure. In other words, Big Government Republicans tried to ban Medical Doctors from performing procedures that may be medically necessary for a United States citizen.
Perhaps I should also ask why Republicans hate United States citizens so much!
The U.S. District Judge Richard Kopf — a Ronald Reagan appointee! — “ruled that Congress ignored the most experienced doctors in determining that the banned procedure would never be necessary — a finding he found ‘unreasonable.'”, according to CNN.
I don’t care what Religious Fundamentalism you prescribe to, such bills forced into law via willfull avoidance of scientific fact, medical judgement, the health of the citizenry, and the will of the judiciary (including the Supreme Court of the United States who had previously knocked down the similar bill) by Activist and Extremist Legislators and Executives is anything but “conservative”.
Apparently it’ll require a loss this November (God willing) for the real conservatives in this country to have a chance at reclaiming their party from the TheoCons who’ve hijacked it and are trying to ram every single breach of the U.S. Constitution they can down our throats while they still are in power. Though one wonders if the Fake Conservatives that control the GOP have now gone so far off the deep end, that the once Grand Ole Party may never be able to reclaim itself from the charlatans that now own it.

Which God?? Does God care who wins the election??
God is in control. The right man will be put in office, either Bush or Kerry.
Clinton was the best thing to happen to the Republican Party – 1994 and beyond.
I think the new news I really can see being painted by the "right wing" media is the NY transit workers strike. You hear nothing of what the dollar ammounts are that the strike is demanding and the workers are in desperate need of. All you hear is how it hurt BIG business and sales, traffic is just soooo bad, my walk to work just sucked etc.
This is the demonization of the working class and once again reinforces the right’s needs for destroying our labor force, farming out jobs and not stopping mexican illeagals.
Just one of the many reasons to BE active in politics and write letters to congressman but to also watch C-Span and note the names of the "tard’s" on the Bush camp and once you got a list get busy writing to these offices of the rich (I mean politicians, sorry). Let them know they suck and why. Let them know what you stand for and what you will NOT stand for. After all big money has the power, we have the people!
