I’m GLAD We Didn’t Elect His Clone

Last-minute Bush abortion ruling causes furor - International Herald Tribune:

A last-minute Bush administration plan to grant sweeping new protections to health care providers who oppose abortion and other procedures on religious or moral grounds has provoked a torrent of objections, including a strenuous protest from the government agency that enforces job-discrimination laws.

I have no words except this, it is not a doctor’s job to JUDGE a person’s morality when it comes to providing healthcare. Morality is not the concern of doctors and other healthcare workers. I believe strongly in a woman’s right to CHOOSE. Our social welfare system is already straining under the weight of babies and children born to parents who are not prepared emotionally, physically or economically to be parents. I’m also for teaching our children the truth about sex and how to be responsible for keeping yourself healthy and safe, not for only teaching that one shouldn’t have sex at all.  The forbidden always sounds much more fun than waiting.
