SENATE PASSES PARTIAL BIRTH ABORTION BAN: Today is a good day for those who like life. The Senate passed a ban on partial birth abortion -- all that remains is for George W. Bush to sign the legislation.

I'm pro-choice (though I admit that lately I've been debating with myself the morality of abortion) but I'm solidly behind this ban. I realize that a lot of people despise this procedure because of its graphic nature but for me it's a sample matter: The fetus is being delivered so that it can be killed. You can debate whether a group of cells is a living being all you like but I will never support partial birth abortions.

Christopher Hitchens (always the contrarian) wrote a pro-life piece in a recent issue of Vanity Fair. Which just goes to show you... something or other.
