the right cannot have it both ways.....
ok, so.....the senate passed a restrictive 'child protection bill'........which means that no one but a parent may transport a child across state lines for an abortion under burden of jail time...not grandma...not an older sister...it must be a parent.....we trust only parents under this administration......unless we disagree with parents....as in the caseof the 16 year old with hodgkins disease who desires to withdraw treatment...the united states has gone to court to force the parents to make this child accept chemo treatments......even though this is an administration that believes that the family is the core to all things good and holy.....luckily, a higher court has ruled that the parents have the final say in this matter.......in the end...the supremes will have to weigh in........and the family may be in jeopardy in the newly right-leaning court.......life (as science calls it) versus parents....who'd thought it would come to this.......curious how the right see can skew every last view and still sleep at night.......

ok, so i forgot to mention that on the same day that the senate passed their child protection bill, they defeated a bill introduced by sen lautenburg of nj that aimed to reduce the number of teen pregancies through comprehensive birth control education.....sen lautenburg cited global figures.....american teens have babies at a rate of 84/1000, while their european counterparts have babies at a rate of 12-14/1000...in europe there are such things as condom ads....gasp,,,,,what a concept.....the republicans must want there to actually be more teen babies.....no birth control, no abortion...go figure
