Lansing— Michigan Attorney General Bill Schuette has filed a lawsuit to close two women's clinics that provide abortions in Saginaw and the Lansing area.

Schuette's office filed a complaint Monday in Eaton County Circuit Court seeking to dissolve Health Care Clinic Inc. in Delta Township and Women's Choice Clinic Inc. in Saginaw. The attorney general's office says an investigation included evidence of improper medical records disposal at the clinics owned by Richard Remund.

The Associated Press left a telephone message Monday for Remund. A person answering the phone at Health Care Clinic declined comment.

Schuette asks state health officials to review evidence suggesting improper records disposal and that at least half of procedures performed at the clinics were abortions. Schuette says the second would put the clinics under more stringent regulations.

FYI, Michigan Attorney General Bill Schuette is a GOPer. But I'd bet you'd already figured that out.

1. This isn't about those 'poor, dead, babies.'

It's about repealing women's rights and ignoring women's health. It's control.

[southernyankeebelle]

8. Funny how family values republicans worry about babies before they are

born but when they come out they are on their own. Go figure.

[glinda]

15. Body and mind control.

[Vincardog]

2. So the GOP is saying that the state can terminate a corporation's life? That is a start.

3. more info in this Lansing State Journal piece...

In October 2010, officials found that the clinic did not violate the public health code. But in a news release issued today, Schuette said further investigation found the clinics were improperly incorporated and may have violated additional state regulations.

Schuette referred evidence suggesting possible regulatory violations to the state agency that licenses medical facilities.

Schuette added that state law requires medical facilities to be incorporated with a licensed medical professional at the helm.

Silly me. I thought GOPers were totally against government regulating stuff.

[LiberalFighter]

10. Why does a licensed medical professional need to be at the helm?

Are all hospitals in Michigan under direct control of a licensed medical professional?

[madrchsod]

16. only women bodies and who marries who....

[valerief]

4. What a POS asswipe AG. No concern for women's health whatsoever! nt

[BlueJazz]

5. Women sure get pick on a lot. If it's not wages or glass ceilings, it's some bullshit like this.

[vanboggie]

6. The GOP wrecked my State

WTF is it you want, you assholes? Our water? Oh wait, you're stealing that, too.

[Ian David]

7. Obviously, this is because those women didn't recite The Pledge of Allegiance enough.

9. His last name sounds SOOOO obscene, especially if you modify "Bill" a bit

[SoapBox]

11. "...lawsuit to close two women's clinics that provide abortions in Saginaw and the Lansing area."

SO...question?

Do those two clinics provide ANY OTHER SERVICES for women besides abortions?

I'm curious. Because, if they do, these GOPBagging Creeps take away much
more than just abortion services.

But I suppose, that is also part of the overall agenda...make it hard for women
to get ANY health care.

[KamaAina]

12. He's not just a woman-hater, he's a job-killer!

People worjk at those clinics, you know. :-)

[Dont call me Shirley]

13. How is his last name pronounced ....Shit?

[fascisthunter]

14. activist judge
