Via their lawyer:

"The family of Dr. George Tiller announces that effective immediately, Women's Health Care Services, Inc., will be permanently closed. Notice is being given today to all concerned that the Tiller family is ceasing operation of the clinic and any involvement by family members in any other similar clinic. ..."

So, Scott Roeder won this battle. Even if he gets put away for the rest of his life, and I Am Dr. Tiller gets thousands of new testimonials. One third of all late term abortion doctors are dead now.

Indeed, contraception is so uncontroversial that a Pew study in 2006 showed that 80 percent of Americans oppose allowing pharmacists to refuse to sell birth control, the so-called 'conscience' clause that Obama seems to support in some form.

In short, this is an appointee with an extreme fringe view of family planning that doesn't represent the majority of Republican voters:
