One Judge perhaps did make a difference.
The Supreme Court's conservative majority handed pro. Life forces a major victory Wednesday in a decision that bans a controversial abortion procedure and set the stage for further restrictions. (

For the first time since the court established a woman's right to an abortion in 1973, the justices upheld a nationwide ban on a specific abortion method, labeled partial-birth abortion by its opponents. the justices upheld a nationwide ban on a specific abortion method, labeled partial-birth abortion by its opponents.
Here in Nebraska a doctor who was behind this court case said the following back in a December interview.
"The only way women come close to achieving equality is if they can control their fertility," 65-year-old dR. Carhart said. "Abortion rights for men have been available since the beginning of time. When they're unhappy with a pregnancy, they walk away; it doesn't matter whether it's the day after conception or when the child is 10 years old."
(Billy>>> The supreme court did it's job. It interpted the law. I heard one radio person who said the court outlawed partial-birth abortion. It didn't do that which isn't its job to do. It ruled on a law. It is not to change a law unless it has before it a case of someone's being denied their rights. Thanks also should go to Bush who signed this law which President Clinton vetod).
