(Wichita, Kansas) According to an Associated Press news story I found on the 
www.KNST.com website, “A Sedgwick County judge ruled Monday that the Kansas abortion statute is constitutional and denied a defense motion to dismiss the criminal case against Dr. George Tiller.” Tiller, known as “Tiller-the-Killer” because of his infamous practice of doing late term abortions must face 10 misdemeanor charges which could lead to as many as 19 years in prison.
The battle is fierce there in Kansas. With this victory comes losses in the form of the defeat of Phill Kline and Jim Ryan both strong pro-life social conservatives. Mr. Kline was one of the chief pursuers of justice in the case against Tiller. He was first the Attorney General of Kansas, then he was the county prosecutor. A moderate (read that RINO) defeated him in the August 5th primary election. A moderate also decidedly thrashed former Congressman Jim Ryan. Great money and effort was expended by the left to keep these men from office. Liberals gleefully see this as the death knell for the social conservative movement in Kansas and everywhere. I surely hope that it is not.
For one, Operation Rescue (OR) president, Troy Newman said in a LifeSiteNews.com article, “Pro-life advocates are winning the culture war and Kline's defeat (although a setback) should be seen in light of the forward progress the pro-life movement is making against the abortion industry. One victory was last week's ruling by a Kansas judge that infamous late-term abortionist George Tiller would have to face 19 criminal charges filed against him for illegal abortions, carrying the possibility of 19 years in jail if convicted."
Newman continued, “. . . Planned Parenthood and other abortion providers are breaking the law flagrantly and we are going to be here until this battle ends and that will be noticed by the fact that no more children are dying."
Justice must prevail in ’08. The elections this fall may be just what is needed to advance the cause of life and liberty.
