WASHINGTON - The Supreme Court's endorsement of the first federal curbs on an abortion procedure in a generation suggests that even with Democrats in control of Congress, efforts to preserve abortion rights may be losing ground.
Both sides in the volatile abortion debate said they now expect a spate of efforts in several states to place further limits on abortion — and that a court reshaped by President Bush's conservative picks will be more willing to uphold them.
Meanwhile, abortion rights champions expressed little hope that efforts to enshrine in federal law that a woman has a right to choose could succeed in Congress.

It is against the rules to *just post a link*, as a thread starter.
How naughty of you.

Seems like the physician should be able to make the decision on what treatment is best for the patient. |

Level up: 16%, 62 Points needed | | I think terminating a pregnancy is not much of my business. However, if asked, I would say that I feel terrible about it. Life is so precious. Whether you are coming into this world or leaving this world Both events should be a time for happiness and love.

Star | It is difficult for the ones left behind to feel happiness that their loved one has left, while it is easy to feel happy that someone has arrived. My mom left this world last August; my granddaughter arrived in February. Sometimes I wonder - did they meet on the other side? |
