Decision ‘08

How Not To Win An Argument, By Jane Hamsher

If the South Dakota Rapist Rights bill goes through, it won’t matter how many brave souls are willing to staff an abortion clinic, they won’t be able to do so. I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: there is no more important task right now before the pro-choice movement than changing the balance of power in the US Senate and breaking up the Gang of 14…

…The Supreme Court just dealt a big blow to pro-choice clincs, saying they could not use extortion and racketeering laws against the clinic bombing, doctor killing forced birth lobby.

(emphasis mine)

Anyone think any minds are changing out there?…

Who would have thought? The Supreme Court by a vote of 8-0 uphold the right to peaceably assemble and freedom of speech as outlined in the first amendment.

The only minds that are changing are the pro-choice ones. It is remarkable that some 30+ years after the Roe v. Wade decision we are still discussing this issue.

Does the SD bill ban the ‘pill’?

The thing about the pill is that it does not stop fertilization, merely prevents the zygote from attatching to the ‘wall’. In theory this is a two week abortion.

The SD (and now MS) play is a back breaker to the methods that have proven so successful in making pro-life stands main stream.

The logic was supposed to be, ban 3rd trimester abortions and begin a debate about 2nd trimester…and wait for the Country to catch up. Not gonna happen now.
