South Dakota Mulls Bill Outlawing Abortion -- 01/23/2004
"The Thomas More Law Center, which is providing Rep. McCaulley with legal assistance, said the bill will generate a court battle if it is passed.
But supporters don't see that as a deterrent: 'Roe v. Wade was an exercise of raw judicial power, not based on any reasonable interpretation of the Constitutional text,' said Richard Thompson, president and chief counsel of the Thomas More Law Center.
'The Roe decision carries the same moral implications as the Dredd Scott decision that upheld slavery, by regarding a segment of our population as non-persons. The Court was wrong then, and the court is wrong now,' he said."
And this is Daschle's state?
