Mover Mike
The Bush administration expressed confidence in U.N. Secretary-General Kofi Annan on Thursday and said he should stay in office, in a belated rebuff to demands from Republicans in Congress for his resignation.I voted for Bush, for this?

I wasn't aware that three courts had ruled against the Partial Birth Abortion Ban passed by Congress. I am glad to see
Members of Congress ask reversal of partial-birth abortion ruling.
Twenty-six Republican members of Congress asked an appeals court Thursday to reinstate the Partial Birth Abortion Ban Act, struck down by a federal judge in September.Mover Mikesnip
U.S. District Judge Richard Kopf in Nebraska ruled in September that the ban interferes with a woman's right to an abortion and is unconstitutional. Kopf's ruling followed decisions overturning the law by federal judges in New York and San Francisco. Those decisions also have been appealed.
