Time to Get the Facts!
I was talking to some old college friends the other day. They are both lawyers. They told me how to get the facts concerning the recent decision of the U.S. Supreme Court to uphold the ban on Partial-birth Abortion (it was decided on April 18, 2007). I was appalled at the spin from the popular media concerning what happened. Those Planned-Barrenhood people are out of their minds! This is a ban that even “pro-choice” people should support.
Please follow the link to get the facts:
This is the 73 page document from the U.S. Supreme Court in PDF format. The following table of contents corresponds to the page numbers of the PDF document:
