Since President Bush has had almost zero effect on the domestic abortion issue what difference does it make?

Social issues are the president's area of least influence, and he has shown that he will not even use his one method of influence to force the issue anyway---convincing his caucus in Congress to stonewall the Democrats into voting for his judicial nominees. If he won't even do it for the circuit judges, there's no way he'll do it for the SC judges when the time comes.

Tell me this----if Kerry wins, will any MORE babies be aborted than otherwise would be if Bush won again? How many American babies are alive today because of Bush? Oh, I forgot, the partial birth abortion ones. In other words, >1%. So that's the best the Republican party can do? We simply need to accept the other 99.x% as a political reality? Besides, my conscience will be clear with respect to this issue. There are plenty of uncomprimising third-party candidates. Abortion will only stop when enough hard-line principled candidates are voted into office anyway. Bush is not one of them.

Errr.... YEAH?!?! And as far as the judicial nominees go. It seems that your logic is backwards. It makes more sense for the President to push harder for a SC justice than to expend his influence on pissant circuit court judges.

But hey. If you like judicial activist that will target gun rights, freedom of speech, and innocent children so be it. I'm glad that you can equate such surrender to a clear conscience. . .
