I have been debating whether or not to post on this subject because one of the claims is just too vile to read, let alone write about. And I do not want to offend people. It is about an abortion doctor in Kansas who has got to be one of the sickest people on the planet. If you don’t know about this I suggest you do not follow the link unless you were willing to view the decapitation videos out of Iraq a while back.

What get’s me, and why I had to write about it, is that this ‘doctor’ had been watched for 2 years due to condititions in his clinic:

Howard testified the clinic was dark, dingy, had poor lighting and smelled musty. There were dirty dishes in the break-room sink and on the table, trash everywhere, and roaches crawling on the countertops. Howard was afraid to sit down.

Howard noted there were no hazardous waste containers anywhere. (An employee later testified Rajanna took home all contaminated, medical and biohazard waste for residential trash pick-up.)

As for the “procedure room,” Howard’s partner spotted dried blood on the floor and said the room looked “nasty.”

Two dishwashers located next to the staff toilet served as sterilizers, according to employee testimony. Photographs show the toilet was bloody and functioned as a human waste disposal in the literal sense.
…
In March, a board inspector made two surprise visits to Rajanna’ clinic. He reported the facility was unclean and that he found syringes of medications in an unlocked refrigerator. The inspector also reported finding a dead mouse in the hallway.

So abortion opponents worked to tighten up laws to require yearly license renewal (to force inspections I gather). But the pro-choice woman Governor vetoed the bill!

But Gov. Kathleen Sebelius, an abortion-rights advocate, vetoed the measure, saying medical professionals – not legislators – should set standards.

First off, wasn’t Roe v Wade supposed to get women out of these back ally hell holes? Is Sebelius seriously saying the health of women is less important than ‘the cause’? And just one other note to Sebelius: this whack job is a medical professional!

UPDATE:

Apparently Sebelius is into protecting abortion clinics who have possibly killed their patients. I had no idea she was such a radical. More here, here, and here

Of course, given the emotions in play I am also having my doubts about the unspoken and grisly charges I alluded to earlier. This is one, unfortunately, to watch.
