But, But, It's For the Women

From the Washington Examiner: The Virginia Board of Health succumbed to pressure from Attorney General Ken Cuccinelli and pro-life advocates Friday and voted to force existing abortion providers to meet stringent new standards that abortion-rights advocates said could put some of those clinics out of business.
The ruling is a complete reversal from June when the board chose to exempt existing facilities from new rules that require clinics performing five or more first-trimester abortions per month to meet the same building code requirements as newly constructed hospitals. That will include larger operating rooms, wider hallways and bigger parking lots -- potentially costly changes that abortion-rights advocates call a backdoor attempt to end legal abortion in Virginia.
ProgressVA Executive Director Anna Scholl charged that state health officials were bowing to "right-wing bullying" and putting politics ahead of sound medical science.  http://washingtonexaminer.com/virginia-board-reverses-decision-on-abortion-clinics/article/2508032#.UFT26K48VXs
You would think that these pro-death pro-abortion people would want the best care for women and make abortions as safe as possible.  Abortion is a medical procedure that is dangerous and has sometimes killed patients.

Virginia is just looking out for women who undergo dangerous medical procedures and so called women advocates complain that they want virtually no standards for abortion doctors. Who is the party that really cares about women?  It ain't the Democrats.
