Partial Birth Abortion Is History

This heinous procedure (the elimination of which was twice vetoed by Bill Clinton) will, I hope, be put behind us. President Bush will sign this bill into law very soon. BUT lead Dimocratic hopeful Howard Dean continues the party line:

As a physician, I am outraged that the Senate has decided it is qualified to practice medicine," said Dean, a former governor of Vermont. He said the legislation "will endanger the lives of countless women."

On the other hand, Bill Frist has it right:

I can say without equivocation that partial birth abortion is brutal, it is barbaric, it is morally offensive, and it is outside the mainstream practice of medicine.

Couples by the thousands stand in line to adopt newborns. Why this so called medical procedure was ever allowed is a question the American public should ask itself.
