SOMETIMES GOOD THINGS HAPPEN TOO

But Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg took exception to the ban on crushing babies to death. Ginsburg said the latest decision "tolerates, indeed applauds, federal intervention to ban nationwide a procedure found necessary and proper in certain cases by the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists." Justice's Ginsberg's perception that the College is infallible shows that she's confused them with her own court. That is the only infallible institution we have. </sarcasm> And until the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists is willing to show us how necessary and proper this procedure is by submitting to it themselves, I'm hesitant to accept her assertion of their deity.
EDIT:
Hilary Clinton, Barack Obama, and John Edwards have expressed their disagreement with the Supreme Court decision in no uncertain terms. They realize that it's a complicated issue, and that women's right must be upheld, and this reverses a thirty-year tradition of court rulings, and such a reversal must be taken seriously. They have the interests of law, justice, and women at heart. And you know, I'm starting to be persuaded by them. Perhaps we ought to move much more slowly and cautiously before we commit ourselves to such a drastic step as shutting down Auschwitz and Dachau. After all, there are complications and subtleties and traditions at stake here. Calling the gassing of millions of Jews "murder" is so inflammatory, so unsophicated, so insensitive to the rights and needs of the Nazis, who after all have feelings too.

Sheesh. I love the way you show how ridiculous they are, Dad!
That procedure is revolting. Ugh.
Well, obviously they should doubt the College. After all, they put obstetrics before gynecology, which is a reflection of patriarchal order.
Bravo - I couldn't have said it better and with more appropriate sarcasm! And bravo, also, for the 5-4 vote in favor of sparing those very viable babies' lives. A small advance for righteousness. It was the same vote here in Sacto, but on another issue. Persuaded by the ACLU and articulate liberals who made timely showing to turn the scale in the wrong direction, the Sacto Library Board voted to protect and keep legal the viewing of pornography in our public libraries. We went to meetings, spoke out, wrote letters, but still ended up with a 5-4 that supposedly maintains "First Ammendment Rights." A travesty and shame for our community and others across the nation who voted the same. Wilberforce in Amazing Grace showed us how strategic we need to be as Christians when fighting evil.
They're crying "peace! peace!" when there is no peace.
I can't even stomach the fact that they are legalizing this. It makes my heart break to see the legalizing of killing babies. It reminds me of Pharoah killing all the firstborn-except we aren't slaves. But the fact that Americans can say this is right to crush babies to death is just showing how blind people are without Light to guide them.
