In 2000, the Supreme Court voted 5-4 to reject the state ban on partial-birth abortion by Nebraska. Now, the high court - with two new Justices - heard oral arguments in two cases challenging the federal ban on the Partial-Birth Abortion Ban Act of 2003. "Three of the Justices - Justices Kennedy, Scalia, Thomas - already have compared this procedure to infanticide when the court rejected Nebraska's state ban six years ago," said Sekulow. Great news!

Kennedy was on the anti-abortion side in Stenberg v. Carhart (2000 case on the NE law), so, yeah, I'd be very surprised if (even) he were to "grow in office" so much in 6 years as to reverse his prior position.

I'll believe when I see it.
If it happens, I'll cheer then.

This is a horrible thing to say, but if this is supported by the powers that be, the judgement on the US will be well deserved, and I personally hope plenty of liberal young women partake.
We have come to this in my lifetime. I don't know how health care people who claim to care so much can actually do this.

Beware.
Kennedy is an intellectual pillow, whatever head he cradled last is the form he takes.

Ironic that this should happen today, but great news nevertheless, if the Justices decide to overturn the federal ban on this disgusting procedure - which certainly can be compared to infanticide.

This entire debate absolutely sickens me. Knowing what abortion does to a baby...and that's just "regular abortion"...how it burns their skin and chops them into little pieces to be sucked out with a vacuum...
But this. So-called "partial" birth abortion. Here we have justices discussing exactly at what point out of a mother's womb is it murder.
What has happened to America's soul that this is even a question?
I'm almost in tears writing this.

I don't know how health care people who claim to care so much can actually do this.
1. People don't go to medical school to become abortionists. Typically, as doctors, abortionists are the bottom of the barrel...I'd rather place myself under the care of a vet than one.
2. There are a % of people in medical school who are flaming liberals and will do anything for money...even kill babies.

I like Sekulow, but he seems far too optimistic about these sorts of things. If you'll remember, he was wholeheartedly behind Miers, as he seems to be for any Republican appointee. These free passes have left us with 33 years of legal murder.

No one knows how he will vote.
The only thing we can do is pray.
This happens THOUSANDS of times a year. It is a horrendously brutal act of violence. It is not only MURDER, but a crime against humanity.

I've said a little prayer that God prevail upon the hearts of these people and save the little babies. I hope others will do the same.
