Pro-Life Groups Disappointed Senate Confirmed Abortion Advocate Elena Kagan

Washington, DC (LifeNews.com) -- Leading pro-life organizations responded swiftly to the Senate voteconfirming pro-abortion Supreme Court nominee Elena Kagan. They said the hearings and Kagan's extensive pro-abortion record make it clear she will be no friend of women and unborn children.

Wendy Wright, the president of Concerned Women for America, responded: “We expect that Elena Kagan will continue her life-long practice of using her position to place her opinion as the final authority over the law, treat the Constitution as optional, and re-write the facts to fit her agenda, all to the detriment of our country."

"Kagan’s presence at the Supreme Court will be a constant reminder to conservatives of the clear and present danger we face if we are not engaged in the political process to ensure only qualified people of character are in key positions," she said.

“As a White House official, Miss Kagan re-wrote the statement of a medical organization regarding partial-birth abortion in order to manipulate legislators and the courts," Wright complained.
