Hurray, for the Supreme Court!
I am amazed that partial-birth abortions ever became a controversial issue. The law still allows women the ability to get abortions earlier in their pregnancies, but the Court only upheld the ban on partial-birth abortions. The fact that partial-birth abortions were ever legal is a horrific travesty. The moment the infant is fully removed from the birth canal, the baby immediately receives the full protection of law and possesses the right to live. However, pro-abortionists (I'm no longer calling them by their own label - pro-choice) use the vagaries of the legal system to validate the murder of their children, who are inches from delivery. There is no way anyone can argue that the baby is not a living human being at that point. They just believe a lie. Doctors and nurses who witness these atrocities say that the babies flinch with obvious pain when their skulls are pierced and their brains are literally sucked out. I am horrified that it has taken this long to get this awful practice banned.
I think that it is interesting that pro-abortionists have cleverly created a politically correct label for the practice of murdering innocent children. They call themselves "pro-choice." What a great label. We live in a country of freedoms. We can control and make decisions about nearly every aspect of our lives. We call these freedoms rights. Why then do we not have the right to abort our children? A friend once told me that just because we have the power to do something, does not necessarily mean that we the right to do it. I may have the power to take a gun into a crowded mall and start shooting innocent children (after-birth abortion --- sarcasm intended), but I do not have the right to do so. As a society, we declare that some human activities are criminal in nature and we pass laws with punishments affixed to them as a means of deterrence. The power to do something does not always beget the right to do it.
What is completely ironic is that pro-abortionists do have a choice. That choice came much earlier when they were copulating without thought of the consequences. They made a choice and knowing that even with birth control, there is always a chance of becoming pregnant. Cause and Effect! The slogan, pro-choice, is being misused here. A liberal would truly have to be a complete dolt to not know that pregnancy is a possible outcome of sexual activity. The truth is that pro-abortionists are really about avoiding the consequences of their actions. Their argument is just as ridiculous as a person jumping off a tall building in an attempt to kill himself. Once he has leapt from the building, gravity quickly accelerates him to his death. On the way down, the person committing suicide decides that he has changed his mind and asks a doctor to abort his fall. This is classic liberal stupidity. They want the freedom but not the responsibility. Every women on this planet has the freedom of choice, they are just misusing their freedom to avoid the consequences of their actions.
Unfortunately, women bear an unfair percentage of the responsibility, since the consequences of pregnancy rests entirely with them. After all, it takes two to tangle, but it is the woman who has to carry the child to term. Even though that's the natural order, it is unjust because men also carry part of the responsibility. In the process of banning abortion, we should also hold men financially liable for the support of their women during the pregnancy process. If the law requires women to carry the babies to term and the men to financially support the women while they do so, we might see more thought going into making babies.
Many liberals believe that we conservatives are laughable because we will argue against abortion, but support the 2nd Amendment at the same time. This argument shows liberal contempt for logic and reality. Abortion is about avoiding an inconvenience and the 2nd Amendment is about the right to defend your life. The right to own guns does not equal criminal shootings any more than automobile ownership equals drunk driving. Guns do not make people shoot other people anymore than cars make people drink too much alcohol and drive on public streets. People choose to use guns or drive their cars to kill other people. The guns nor the cars are responsible. When was the last time you heard of a gun or car standing trial for murder? It's just a piece of metal. The people who use them are responsible. In the same sense, women who murder their unborn children and the men who encourage them to do so are responsible. They are the ones who made the choice to end the life of another human being. In the councils of God, people who abort their children are no different from Cho, the Virginia Tech terrorist. They are the same creatures; soulless and evil.
It is surprising to me that it has taken this long to get this very small victory. Abortion should be completely criminalized. There should be life sentences attached to any woman who is convicted of murdering her undelivered child. (my politically incorrect term as opposed to unviable uterine tissue) Similarly, men who assist and encourage women to have an abortion should also be convicted of conspiracy to commit murder and they should receive life sentences as well. On the other hand, there should be room in the law for therapeutic abortion as it has a legitimate medical purpose; to save the life of the expectant mother. In my opinion, abortion should also be available for rape and incest victims. But none of these cases involve convenience. Abortion is not being used as a form of birth control in these instances. All other abortions must be banned with the full punishment of the law.
What is truly sad is that the inconvenience is such a short period of time. There are so many families that cannot have children and would love to have a baby. After only nine months, the baby could be adopted to a loving family, and then the selfish mother can return to her selfish life. At least, her selfishness will have blessed a family eager for the pitter patter of little feet.
Kudos to the Supreme Court for upholding a law that protects the lives of all Americans; delivered and undelivered.

I have often wondered how a liberal pro-choice environmentally minded voice would respond if you went live on television threatening to crush the egg of bird protected by the endangered species act. After all one could use the same arguments claiming it wouldn’t really be a tragedy because there is no life inside the egg.
Even if you could get them to concede in their haste to save the egg, that there really is in fact life within the unhatched egg, they will try to draw the distinction that when it comes to taking the life of the unborn human, it is different in thier eyes because humans are abundant and common, but the endangred unborn chick is rare and special.
Since they will not recognize the divine nature of human kind, we could then use the same argument they sometimes apply to aborted human life, that given current conditions on earth, life is too stressful to bring such an innocent creature into this tough world, and it would be better to crush the egg and spare the endangered chick from a life of struggle and suffering. Besides the endangered expecting mother bird will need all challenges and responsibilities lifted from her life so she can maximize all her energy and leisure time for her own enjoyment and survival. A new baby bird will only get in the way of such a care free life. Of course they would merely selectively focus on the obvious distinction that the scenario example was complicated by the fact the I was talking about an endangered bird so this changes things because in their mind people are overpopulated and we are the problem in their world view. There is a total dismissal of the divine origin of man and the sacredness of our lives and the reproductive responsibilities we have.
