PITTS BILL

[Hal Eaton]

HR 358 is up for a vote in Congress, perhaps today. As I understand it, the bill calls for hospitals to be allowed to refuse to perform abortions, even if the mother's life is in danger.

My low-grade dyslexia lets me see Pitts Bill as Pit Bull.

Further suggestions:

It sounds as if Congress if practicing medicine without a license.

Or --Congress is practicing license without a medicine.

IMO. Perhaps TIC. Perhaps not.

The Religious Righteous never give up.

With all the real problems facing our country, Congress is spending its time on this. We need to change politicians like we change baby diapers--often and for the same reason.

Even before Rowe vs Wade it was considered appropriate to save the mother's life over the fetus. How do they save the fetus after the mother dies? I assume we aren't talking late term procedures.

We've been around this before. I think Gorney had the last word few years ago on the politics of abortion or Gormley

Knowing this bill is DOA in the Senate, this is just another piece of raw meat being thrown to a Republican constituency for 2012 to be certan they vote Republican.

Since when does Congress have to poke it's nose into private and personal decisions????

AND---what does this have to do with the needs of America with a busted economy and overseas invasions of oil land???

Revise the Tax Code and put in Term Limits!!!!!
