I can't stand the guy but he gets credit when credit is due. Like now.
ZitatOhio became the third state on Friday to ban abortions after a diagnosis of Down syndrome.
Gov. John Kasich (R) signed a bill that would make it a fourth-degree felony for a doctor to perform an abortion if there is a prenatal Down syndrome diagnosis. The doctor could face up to 18 months in prison. There is no punishment for the woman.
The law will take effect in March.
Anti-abortion rights advocates say abortions because of Down syndrome are discrimination and cheered Kasich's decision on Friday.
"Ohio has given unborn children with Down syndrome and their families an early Christmas present and created a safe haven from lethal discrimination," said Marjorie Dannenfelser, president of the Susan B. Anthony List.
Opponents argue the law will prevent women from making their own decisions on their pregnancies
AGREE with you Cinc on this one. Why is he still Governor. Seems like he been their longer than Obama was in office and that seemed like it was forever?
