The big difference is that Clinton vetoed it because the bill did not take into account the fact where it is done to save the mother's life. Bush approved the billl with no exceptions so a mother can DIE. In any event, partial birth abortions account for less than 1/5 of 1% of ALL terminations in the nation. It was magnified as if it was this huge number of terminations nationwide and therapeutic ones which is a bald faced lie. They were done mostly in cases of
1) fetus with no brain and partial spinal cord only a brain stem AKA anencephaly
2) mother's dying, fetus would not have been able to survive outside of the womb, not even in a NICU.
So prior to this law and based on the last set of stats known on terminations from 2003 out of 848,163 terminations, less than an estimated 1,697 could have been partial birth abortions.
So Bush thinks it is better for the mother to die. Great President

I see that the liberals are out in tension this evening. it is so universal of them to objective to evaluate diametrically opposed subjects. Partial delivery abortion has no longer something to do with Iraq, yet in spite of the undeniable fact that, they have no longer the rest to hold their hats on. definite, Bush did a astounding element via banning partial delivery abortions - Clinton grew to become into pandering to the some distance left via no longer doing so. life starts off at theory, this could nicely be a actuality.

This is more of a religious question, like do you support killing an Innocent baby or the mothers life is in jeopardy so if she doesn't abort she will die. Theirs no right answer (or question) and no 100%, theirs always a what if, and it does happen. People need take a good look at both sides.
Oh, ya Blair is a PM, not a president, But good answer.

I wish I could agree that thousands of babies will live, but I fear that they will be killed by another method. In the absence of a right to life amendment I don't see the partial birth abortion ban or the stem cell research ban saving many lives. I hope I am wrong.
I can't support either Bush or Clinton due to their support for capital punishment, and Bush's failure to do much to push for a right to life amendment and Clinton's failure to do much to make abortion rare as he said he wanted to do. I don't question their good intentions, however.
Both the killing done in the way we wage war and terminated pregnancies is horrific; I see no sense declaring one to be better or worse than the other. In both cases we need to be working to develop nonlethal means of protecting freedoms -- both reproductive freedom and political/economic freedoms.

Clinton feared it would result in problems for women whose lives were at risk if they carried to term. A real human is still more important than an underdeveloped fetus in my opinion.

Anybody that would support partial birth abortion has absolutely no conscience.

The democrats wants to legalize murder. From abortion to any other way to them murder is OK. When a innocent life is taken they applaud the killer.

What is so horrific? People should have rights. Many republican leaders are hypocritical, making decisions which impair our rights, at the same time saying the US has "freedom."

Mind your own business and leave the reproductive decisions to your women, whom you don't seem to have any faith in. You can't control another human being's body, you can't make their private business a public matter, or we'll end up stoning women in sacks in the street like the followers of Sharia law.
NO, IT DOESN'T OUTWEIGH THE WAR. what kind of so-called man meddles in the business reserved for a woman and her God, rather than joining the men who fight for his country?
What kind of man tries to undermine the freedom and independence of the women in his country, and kills doctors outside clinics and throws buckets of sheep's blood at little girls who have been raped and traumatized? What kind of man is this?
You get back out to the garage and leave the kitchen to the girls, suckhole.
Something for self-righteous "Dave" - murder? You've got a serious firearms issue in your schools as far back as kindergarten and up to college, and your REGULAR murder rate is obscene for a democratic nation. You've got serial murderers victimizing your women, and stealing the kids who those women can't afford to feed because your fundie society makes excuses for men and makes women shoulder all the burdens. Dave, Democrats are not murderers, and you are a self righteous priggish cracker who probably sucks up to some fascist pastor and targets non-born-agains. Democrats are just another political party in America, and they have a right to a voice under your Constitution, which I'll bet you have never even read. Deal with your gun laws and save the children that are already here. Let mothers have free daycare so they can work and raise their children. have you noticed how many single moms there are and how they are despised and used by most men? Some family values! Contribute financially to a single mother and children in distress - they're already here, and suffering, and in need of aid - in your own damned country! Quit torturing the Mexicans, they never blew anybody up. Quit trying to monitor TV and ban this and that book and shrilly try to control other people under the cover of religion. Christ said let he who has no sin throw the first stone. Do you have no sin, boy? You don't sound like a man. Oh, and one more thing, you silly bastards - quit persecuting your gay population by dragging them into the church. it's stupid, and so backward, and Puritan. Next you'll be burning witches for heresy. Alot of Americans are coming up over the border, to protect their young teenage sons. You need to get ahold of your own country, and leave your women alone except to take care of them.
