Today, Wednesday, April 18th, 2007, the Supreme Court upheld (by a 5 to 4 majority) the 2003 Congressional ban on Partial Birth or Third Trimester abortions, which was signed onto by G W Bush.
Given that there is no doubt that a child, in that last trimester, IS a viable life (premature infants have survived outside the womb as early as three months premature), this ruling merely affirms the right of the viable to life.
Sam Alito was the deciding vote. Good riddance Sandra Day O’Connor, who set back an earlier ban.
