So both the House and Senate have pased the bill and now its headed for born-again-Bush to be rubber stamped. What are ya'lls feelings on this?

Frankly, I'm not a big fan of partial birth abortions and they are a pretty insignificant subset of abortions (something like <1%), but I see this as the first step to tackling Roe Vs. Wade for good. While personally I'm pretty mixed on the topic of abortion and I default to the women's better senses to make the decision. Overall, though, I am very against any law that intrudes into peoples personal lives, and this crosses the line.

Yet another reason to work my ass off for the Democrats in 2004.
