Governor of South Dakota outlaws all abortions except for ones saving the life of the mother

[groovychk]

CHICAGO (Reuters) - The governor of South Dakota on Monday signed into law severe restrictions on abortion, in a direct challenge to the U.S. Supreme Court's legalization of the practice 33 years ago.

Abortion foes have said they hope to use the South Dakota law to eventually bring the issue back before the high court, where they believe conservatives added to the bench by President George W. Bush in the last year could weaken or dismantle the court's landmark Roe vs Wade decision of 1973.

Supporters of Roe vs Wade have promised a legal challenge to the new South Dakota law.

Pathetic
Saving the life of the mother... How do you define that. I guess it doesn't include saving her Constitutional rights or her rights to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.

Like with the backlash against same-sex marriage, you will likely see (and this is the first step) more and more states setting themselves up with their conservative voices to attempt to force a re-hearing on Roe v. Wade.
I fear we may end up back with the "back alley" abortionists and the death of many women. It is a time to be concerned.
