"Sir, people like you are never satisfied.

There is only so much one president can do. We have a ban on partial birth abortions, which is more than Reagan did."

The ban is "unconstitutional" according to the rogue courts that Bush could correct. I never said he could end ALL abortions but he could make a tremendous difference beyond what he has. The article explains that SCOTUS is NOT Supreme over POTUS, he can check the courts but has not.

He said sometime back that the nation was not ready to overturn Roe--or words to that effect, and here is where truly great leadership is required. Act on what you know is right even if it costs you everything. I know Bush is a Christian and I suppose I am asking him to have a heroically virtuous level of self-sacrifice that Saints are made from.

It's NOT about "me" or "people like me" it's about the fact that the greatest nation in the history of the world has been thrust into a bloodthirsty CULTure of death. 4,000 babies will die tomorrow and very few people notice, most are quite fine with it all.

If it does not end with Bush, I suspect it never will. The second footnote in the article provides for much less dramatic corrective measures. It requires a simple majority in both houses and Presidential signature to become law. And so there is a "window" of opportunity for this to be passed. Bush has the opportunity to become a legend on par with Lincoln if he can champion this simple majority bill through.

I worked very hard to get him into office both times and I have every right to hold him accountable, as a Christian I have an obligation to hold him accountable.

Fair enough.

Sorry for being such a jerk, I just hear people complaining all the time, and it gets old.
