Texas governor signs abortion bill at church school amid protests

FORT WORTH, Texas In a ceremony filled with religious references, Texas Governor Rick Perry has signed a bill that imposes more limits on late-term abortions. It also requires minors to get written parental consent for abortions.

The bill-signing took place in a church school gymnasium. Several hundred demonstrators -- some opposed to the signing of a bill on church property -- protested outside.During the 90-minute program, Perry also signed a resolution to amend the Texas Constitution by banning same-sex marriages. However, that signature was only ceremonial since voters must decide whether to approve the proposed ban in November.Before Perry spoke, several pastors received standing ovations and shouts of "Amen!" from the crowd as they touted the two measures being signed by Perry.

That is just great.

And they say that we're un-American for being against this crap? This country was founded on the premises of freedom of religion, and now they're blatently touting religion in everyone's faces? That's a crock of bullshit.

I hate when lines get crossed. That bill pisses me off slightly!

I'm so glad I live in a blue state. The theocrats are turning much of this country into a Xtian version of Iran. Maybe we should learn from Algeria that it is dangerous to allow theocrats to participate in the electoral process.
