CHRISTIAN ENEMIES VOTE TO BAN ABORTION

The scumbag right-wing and left-wing christians are working hard to 
ban our rights to abortion as they did our rights to infanticide! 
This law to ban partial birth abortions is only a step for them to 
try and ban abortion completely. This is one reason that we are at 
war with the judeo-christian and rich class empire and the will be 
destroyed in the end. Hail Abortion! Hail Infanticide! Death to the 
judeo-christian and rich class empire!

House Votes to Ban 'Partial-Birth' Abortions


WASHINGTON (Oct. 2) - The House voted decisively Thursday for the 
first ban of an abortion procedure since the Supreme Court's Roe v. 
Wade ruling that women have a right to end their pregnancies. 
Strongly supported by President Bush, the bill could be on his desk 
for signature within days.
   
The 281-142 vote culminated an eight-year drive by the Republican-led 
House to end the procedure that abortion opponents call partial birth 
abortion. The Senate could take up the bill as early as Friday and 
send it to the president.

Abortion rights groups, citing court rulings striking down similar 
state laws, say the legislation is unconstitutional and they will 
challenge it as soon as it becomes law.

Doctors who knowingly violate the ban would be subject to up to two 
years in prison. The law would not affect women having the operation.

The legislation bans a procedure, generally in the second or third 
trimester, in which a fetus is partially delivered before a doctor 
punctures the skull. The opposing sides differ on the medical 
necessity or the numbers of such abortions, but they agree the bill 
will have far-reaching ramifications.

''Abortion will stay legal,'' said House Majority Leader Tom DeLay, R-
Texas, a strong supporter of the restriction. But he added, ''After a 
generation of bitter rhetoric, the American people have turned away 
from the divisive politics of abortion and embraced the inclusive 
politics of life.''

''Don't ever forget, this is about Roe v. Wade,'' said Rep. Nita 
Lowey, D-N.Y., referring to the 1973 Supreme Court decision making 
abortion legal. ''It's about restricting access to safe medical 
procedures throughout a pregnancy.''

While the vote was mainly along party lines, four Republicans voted 
against the bill and 63 Democrats supported it.

The House has passed the bill on an almost annual basis since 
Republicans won control in 1995, but President Clinton twice vetoed 
it, saying it lacked an exception to protect the health of the mother.

The health factor was also key to the Supreme Court's 5-4 decision in 
2000 to overturn a similar Nebraska state ban. The high court also 
ruled that the Nebraska law was unconstitutional because its 
definition of partial birth - not a medical term - was too vague.

Writers of the bill said they had met the court's objections by 
tightening the definition and adding findings to show the practice is 
never needed for health reasons. ''Partial birth abortion is 
dangerous to women and is never medically necessary to preserve a 
woman's health,'' said Rep. Steve Chabot, R-Ohio, a chief sponsor. 
Chabot said the procedure is ''akin to infanticide.''

But Nancy Northup, president of the Center for Reproductive Rights, 
said the bill is written so that any mid- or late-term abortion could 
be subject to criminal charges. ''What the law does is prevent 
doctors from using the safest medical procedures to terminate a 
pregnancy as early as 12 weeks,'' she said.

Her group is one of several that says it will file a lawsuit as soon 
as the bill is signed into law. The National Abortion Federation, 
represented by the American Civil Liberties Union, will also file 
suit and seek to block enforcement.

Kate Michelman, president of NARAL Pro-Choice America, said a key 
issue is whether Bush, if he wins a second term, will nominate judges 
to the Supreme Court who are hostile to Roe v. Wade. ''This case 
could either be used to overturn Roe or to eviscerate the protections 
guaranteed by Roe,'' she said.

But Tony Perkins of The Family Research Council said the bill 
reflected a shift in American attitudes toward abortion. ''This is 
the first time that we've seen a significant public policy move to 
parallel the cultural move back to a respecting of human life.''
