I heard a bit more on the abortion bill in Missouri. Seems whomever put it out isn't getting much support, because the rest of the Republicans don't want the risk of a court fight over it now.
Here's what I found in an article in the KC Star today (original here, scroll down about halfway):
"In Missouri, state Sen. Jason Crowell, a Cape Girardeau Republican, has introduced a proposed new law and an amendment to the state constitution - a move that would go on the November ballot. Both of his proposals would make anyone who performs abortion liable to a felony prison sentence of 15 years unless the procedure was needed to save the woman’s life.
Gov. Matt Blunt told reporters he’d rather see restrictions that can quickly go into effect - “not just set up court battles.”"
Grrrrrrr.
