Abortion Rights Group to Air Anti-Bush Ad
from Yahoo News: <http://story.news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=story&cid=544&ncid=693&e=4&u=/ap/20031105/ap_on_go_pr_wh/abortion_ads>


snip> WASHINGTON - An abortion rights group will air a television ad Wednesday criticizing President Bush (news - web sites) for his decision to sign a bill that imposes the first federal restrictions on a woman's legal right to abortion



snip> Democratic presidential candidate Howard Dean (news - web sites), a trained internist, on Tuesday urged Bush not to sign the bill.


"This law will chill the practice of medicine and endanger the health of countless women," the former Vermont governor said in a statement.







The GOP have their foot in the door of our doctor's offices with this bill. You know this is only the beginning.

says "criminalizes" not "restrictions" as the article says. This bill criminalizes any who would participate in this procedure. This will not be able to stand--Bush is signing this as if he has done a great and tremendous thing for the unborn. He, and all others who object to this procedure are really ignorant--the Religious right saw to it that people did remain uninformed about this procedure, appealed to pity, appealed to emotions, so that the facts would be obscured. The fact that it pays little heed to the health of the mother is a given--we know that these religious rightists care not for protecting a woman and her health or her rights.
