03/30/2004: "Bush to sign Unborn-Victims bill"
In this Zenit article Bush promises to sign the very important legislation to make it a crime to injure or kill a child in the womb. That is of course great news.
Important notes include that both California Senators (Diane Fienstien and the ever stupid Barbara Boxer) along with John Kerry voted against the bill. This is another case where the politics of abortion are making us stupid. Those who voted against it took the defense of, "we don't want to erode the rights of abortion." What does that have to do with it? Wasn't the whole idea of legalizing abortion that it is the woman's right to choose? What choice does a woman have when someone commits a crime against the baby she wants to carry to term?
Furthering my frustration is that good old John Kerry is back up promoting his Catholicism again. He's a disgrace to our Church. Anyone who can't vote for a bill that is obviously a good idea because it may tilt the scale against something already sinful, by his own Church's definition, is going to have a hard time getting my vote.
