Congress needs to pass a law that recognizes the right and the obligation of all physicians...
...to do whatever they deem medically necessary to save the life and/or health of every sick or injured woman, under their care--whether or not she is pregnant. Period.

Then, dare Bush to veto it.

1. not just women
It should be the law that ALL medical decisions between a patient and a doctor are private, and the government has no right to interfere.

3. Well, yes, but I want to be clear that this is about the ban on late-term abortions.
I don't disagree that all health care rights should be protected and, given today's decision, who knows what could happen next. But, it was a male-dominated Republick majority that did this to women. So, while we have a Dem majority, we need to undo it.

2. Let's see if there's a Democrat with the guts to make this an issue....
it's basic, the proper un-bullshitty framing, and simple enough for most cretin Americans to understand....
