Kansas Revokes Doctor's License in Abortion Case
Associated Press - Fri 10:44 AM 06/22/2012
Neuhaus argued that her exams met accepted standards of care.
Kansas regulators have revoked the medical license of a doctor accused of performing inadequate mental health exams on young patients she then referred to the late Dr. George
Tiller for late-term abortions.
The State Board of Healing Arts on Friday ratified an administrative judge's earlier decision to revoke Dr. Ann Kristin Neuhaus's license.
The judge concluded in February that the Nortonville doctor's 2003 examinations of 11 patients ages 10 to 18 were insufficient. Neuhaus provided the second medical opinions Tiller needed by law to perform the late-term abortions at his Wichita clinic.
Neuhaus argued that her exams met accepted standards of care. Groups that oppose abortion rights have criticized Neuhaus for years and are sure to welcome Friday's decision.

Seems to me, killing a baby is fairly radical and extreme......certainly is for the baby anyway.

Just like it's not a pizza until it is done baking and has come out of the oven, it's not a baby until it is born. And as much as this sounds somehow "terrible," ten year olds should not be allowed to have children, for a host of medical AND psychological reasons.

If a pizza is not a pizza until it comes out of the oven then why am I paying for a pizza at Papa Murphy's? I should be paying for raw dough with sauce, meat and cheese. I understand your comparison though. Those who are pro abortion will use any analogy they can make fit in any given situation. In the end, a baby is being killed. Doesn't matter how one justifies it, tries to explain it away, or makes an excuse for it.....a baby is being killed.

Seems about right to me. Plain and simple, abortion is wrong unless the pregnancy is by rape or incest. Lame example in regards to the pizza comment by djirass.
