From Breitbart.com:

The Supreme Court upheld the nationwide ban on a controversial abortion procedure Wednesday, handing abortion opponents the long- awaited victory they expected from a more conservative bench.
The 5-4 ruling said the Partial Birth Abortion Ban Act that Congress passed and President Bush signed into law in 2003 does not violate a woman’s constitutional right to an abortion.

The opponents of the act “have not demonstrated that the Act would be unconstitutional in a large fraction of relevant cases,” Justice Anthony Kennedy wrote in the majority opinion.

The decision pitted the court’s conservatives against its liberals, with President
Bush’s two appointees, Chief Justice John Roberts and Justice Samuel Alito,
siding with the majority.

Justices Clarence Thomas and Antonin Scalia also were in the majority.

The outcome is likely to spur efforts at the state level to place more
restrictions on abortions.
