To me, it is remarkable that this vote happened in the first place. The fact that the reps turned up at all on Easter break to debate and render a vote goes to show that our democracy is functioning even though this law may be ultimately declared unconstitutional. My Congressman, Robert Menendez (D)13th district in N.J., did not show up for the vote. This is not unusual because Robert Menendez only makes himself available when it concerns Hispano-American issues. Otherwise, to me, he is worthless. I have written e-mails to him on several occasions and have never received written replies. I'm not Hispanic. Anyway, I had also sent e-mails to my 2 senators, Corzine and Lautenberg to support life for Terri. No response from either of them. So much for the moral terpitude of the Democratic party.
My rep who lives 40 minutes from DC did not show up to vote either. He is a deathocrat who is mulling the race for Senator in MD in 2006, and would not want to have this vote on his record. Despicable!
As Michael Savage said today, the mask of compassion has come off of the Democrats and they are looking like the Party of the Death Culture.
I do think they will have to detach themselves from the death industry because the face they are showing to the American people is disgusting everyone. With more letters and emails to them from good patriots like you, they might see the error of their ways. They can't live in a vacuum that is so out of touch for long.
