The New Abortion Law - WTF?????
2 days ago President Bush signed into bill the new reformed Abortion law. For those who say "Who cares" should read on.
If you plan on having a baby in the future you better hope its healthy, you better pray that your wife is not at risk giving birth, because you will have NO choice, your wife will have to die in order to give birth. We just stepped back 200 years
I am so sick of that guy

Bush Signs Anti-Abortion Bill, to Fight in Court
But within minutes of the signing ceremony, a federal judge in Nebraska issued a temporary restraining order barring U.S. Attorney John Ashhahahahaha and the Justice Department from enforcing the new law against four doctors who practice in more than a dozen states.
Abortion rights groups have also asked courts in California and New York to block and ultimately overturn the law.
Bush cast the ban in stark terms: as the government coming to the defense of the "innocent child" against "a terrible form of violence."
"Today, at last, the American people and our government have confronted the violence," Bush said.
Abortion rights groups countered the ban would sacrifice women's health and rights for Bush's political gain, and promised a court fight that could drag on for months if not years.
Bush vowed his administration would "vigorously defend this law against any who would try to challenge it in the courts."
He took the unusual step of signing the ban into law at a building named after Ronald Reagan, the former Republican president who opposed abortion, instead of at the White House.
Outside, dozens of protesters denounced him with signs that read: "Keep abortion legal" and "We trust our doctors more than we trust Bush." The American Civil Liberties Union called it "a deceptive and dangerous" measure.
In a statement, Democratic presidential candidate Howard Dean, a doctor, called it a "dark day for American women" and warned the ban would "chill the practice of medicine and endanger the health of countless women."
White House spokesman Scott McClellan said the ban was a "practical" step to reduce U.S. abortions and Bush would support additional efforts to end abortions, including measures to promote adoption and sexual abstinence
If it withstands the legal challenges, the "partial birth" abortion ban would constitute the first federal limit on a type of abortion since the 1973 Roe versus Wade Supreme Court ruling backing abortion rights.
But Bush said last week that the United States was not ready for a total abortion ban.
Critics say the measure will ban many abortion techniques, not one particular procedure, and that it is effectively no different from a Nebraska law invalidated by the U.S. Supreme Court three years ago.
That was what the ACLU was arguing on Wednesday in federal court in New York, trying to block enforcement of the law before it is scheduled to take effect at 12:01 a.m. on Nov. 6.
Sponsors of the ban said they took prior court objections into account and believed it would be upheld.
The U.S. Congress has held emotional debates on the partial birth abortion for years, and former President Bill Clinton twice vetoed similar legislation because it did not contain an exception to protect the health of a woman.
In drafting the law, the U.S. Congress determined such an exception was not necessary for health reasons, but did include a more narrow one to save a woman's life.
Under the bill, a doctor could face up to two years in prison as well as civil lawsuits for performing a "partial birth" abortion, defined as intentionally killing a fetus that has been partially delivered.
In addition to the New York and Nebraska challenges, the reproductive rights group Planned Parenthood filed a lawsuit in San Francisco against the ban.
