The Coming Assault on Abortion

This kind of thing will become increasingly common--and much worse is on the way--in the next few years. Let's hope the pro-choice Justices somehow manage to stay alive, at least until 2006 when there's a reasonable chance we could take back the Senate. What bothers me the most is that lots of pro-choice people don't really seem to understand what's at stake--they think Roe can never be overturned. It can and will be, if Bush gets to make two or three appointments. But the right doesn't really need to overturn Roe if they can do stuff like this--they'll just make it so hard to get a "legal" abortion that no one will be able to get one. I heard recently that the only place to get an abortion in Oregon is in Portland--if that's true, it's shameful.
