'Roe' Seeks to Overturn Abortion Law

by produced by your friend, Sy$teMF@iLuRe Thursday, Jun. 19, 2003 at 6:13 AM

DALLAS (Reuters) - The woman once known as "Jane Roe" whose case led to the legalization of abortion in the United States 30 years ago filed a new court challenge on Tuesday in a bid to overturn the landmark Supreme Court decision.



Norma McCorvey, who went by the name Jane Roe in the landmark Roe v. Wade ruling but later joined the anti-abortion movement, filed a motion in Dallas federal court claiming changes in the law and advances in medicine had rendered the court's original decision unjust.

At a Dallas rally, she told supporters she regretted her part in the original lawsuit.

"I want to thank all the wonderful women that are standing here. I'm so sorry that I filed that affidavit," McCorvey said.

"I long for the day that justice will be done and the burden from all these deaths will be removed from my shoulders," she said in a separate statement.

Planned Parenthood president Gloria Feldt said the case was not viewed as a threat to abortion rights.

"We don't expect the court to take it seriously. And the reason is because it was a good decision," she told Reuters. "Roe v. Wade enabled women to participate in the social, financial and political life of this country."

The move is the latest challenge to U.S. abortion rights and comes after the House of Representatives and the Senate each approved a ban on a procedure critics call "partial birth" abortion. Minor differences in the two versions remain to be worked out before the legislation goes to the White House.

The ban, supported by President Bush, would be the first time a specific abortion procedure has been criminalized since the 1973 Supreme Court decision.

In Tuesday's motion, written by a Texas-based conservative legal group called the Justice Foundation, McCorvey said Roe v. Wade was decided on false assumptions and that no meaningful trial was held to determine the facts

With all the whoo-de-doo yesterday on the Roe vs. Wade issue...

where the villainous Ms. Roe has come forward in an attempt to atone for her sinful misdeeds, and possibly to assist in overturning the Supreme Court ruling which has become the basis for countless and innumerable mass murders of scores of unborn humans...

I was quietly thinking to myself as I was pondering the wickedness of this modern day Delilah, that in her chopping off Samson's locks of goodness and righteousness in her insatiable and evil acts of selfishness...

but for all her futal pandering, shall never disgrace the pearly gates of heaven with her sickening presence...*ahem*...

Well, in my pondering of all that, I just wondered quietly to myself how these sicko liberals can call themselves advocates of "free choice"?

How disturbing is that? Really? Who's "free choice"?

Not the father's. Certainly not the baby's.

No, just selfish, idiotic mothers that want to be allowed to use MURDER as a form of birth control!

Because they were stupid, they believe they have a license to kill! And if denied this right, society is somehow impinging upon their bizare God given right to "choose freely" to mutilate and dispatch with their unborn children!!

ARE NOT THESE PEOPLE INSANE I ASK YOU????

Now of course, no one is infringing upon their personal freedom! Just don't get pregnant, idiots! Use the pill, a rubber, or just abstain from sex completely if you're an irresponsible imbecile.

But how society (especially liberals, who BTW are mostly against capital punishment) can condone homocide of unborn humans as a form of birth control is beyond my comprehension.

This is just wrong. For instance, I don't like having to contend with liberals either. But they don't give any indication of their leftist predisposition in the womb. And I'm told it's illegal for me to postnatally abort them in the 4th trimester or beyond, which is only when they start exhibiting their liberalist idiocy.
