Pro-Abortion Groups Attack Judge Roberts.
A quick visit to any pro-abortion website, including NARAL, NOW, and Planned Parenthood, reminds us how much is at stake with the nomination of Judge John Roberts to the Supreme Court.
Planned Parenthood shows pictures of a Planned Parenthood Rally at the Supreme Court the morning after Bush announced his nominee. NARAL raises a call to arms while pleading, "The battle for the Supreme Court has begun ... Don't let his choice end yours." The National Organization for Women claims, "Bush Picks Anti-Roe Judge...Women's Lives on the Line."
With his choice of Judge Roberts, President Bush continued his philosophy of selecting judicial nominees who "will strictly apply the Constitution and laws, not legislate from the bench," as Mr. Bush said in announcing the nomination of the 50-year-old member of the Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit.
But a nomination is not enough. Judge Roberts' confirmation is going to require a lot of work, tireless determination, and faithful giving. (See page one.)
Pro-abortion leaders have already declared war on Judge Roberts. The Supreme Court is all important to them. State legislatures across the nation are enacting commonsensical limitations on abortion, which pro-abortionists count on the High Court to overturn or minimize.
Long before President Bush nominated Judge Roberts, indeed even before Justice Sandra Day O'Connor announced her retirement, pro-abortion senators and advocacy groups were fundraising and mobilizing their supporters to defeat whomever President Bush nominated. In fact, their filibusters of previous Bush nominees to federal appeals courts were just a warm-up act for the Supreme Court nomination.
They have already begun massive grassroots and Internet campaigns to urge the Senate to stall and eventually defeat any judge who respects the Constitution as written. They know they need activist judges to continue to legislate from the bench if they want to keep a so-called "constitutional right" to abortion.
