Today's US Supreme Court decision on late term abortion is alarming. By a ruling of 5-4 the Justices have said that it doesn't matter if a woman's life is in jeopardy, it doesn't matter if her doctor says it's in her best interest to have this procedure, she is prohibited from following her doctor's advice regarding this late term abortion procedure.I have limited time right now, but will be back to talk about this more later today.
Feminist Majority Foundation President Eleanor Smeal issued a statement this morning, saying, "This ruling shows the true colors of the current Bush-stacked majority of the Supreme Court: it does not care about the health, well-being, and safety of American women. This must serve as a wake-up call to women: we are losing our fundamental rights as Bush continues to stack the courts. Elections matter: this is the consequence of a Republican, ideologically driven president and Congress."
