WASHINGTON (AFP) - The US House of Representatives voted to outlaw "partial birth" abortions -- a controversial form of late-term abortion that has become a battleground pitting pro-choice and anti-abortion partisans in the United States against each other.
The measure passed by a vote of 282-139.
A similar bill banning the operation was passed by the Senate in March. The two bills now will have to be reconciled by a bicameral "conference committee."
US President George W. Bush, a fierce abortion opponent, wasted no time congratulating the lower chamber of Congress on the ban.
"I applaud the House for passing legislation banning partial-birth abortions. Passage of this important legislation is a shared priority that will help build a culture of life in America," Bush said in a statement.
"I urge Congress to quickly resolve any differences and send me the final bill as soon as possible so that I can sign it into law."

I can't believe that there is not even a squeak in the media about this. Liberals must have recognized this as an issue that they have no defense for, and just ignored it or something.
