Dear sinkspur,
"The pro-lifers already risk losing ground over this issue."
Just what would be lost?
Perhaps abortion on demand might be legalized? Oh wait, the robed tyrants already did that.
Perhaps parents might have no say in their 11 year old daughters having abortions? Oh wait, the robed tyrants already did that.
Perhaps abortionists will be permitted to deliver a baby, at full term, only to stick a pair of scissors into the back of her skull, and suck her brains out? Oh wait, the robed tyrants already did that.
Perhaps disabled people will be starved to death, so that faithless husbands can keep the money for their whores and bastards? Oh wait, the robed tyrants already did that.
Perhaps judges will use the falsified testimony of lawless murderers to justify their murder? Oh wait, the robed tyrants already did that.
Perhaps judges will begin to deny that the people, through their elected representatives, have the power of self-government any longer? Perhaps the judges will appoint themselves our masters, superior to our legislatures and executives? Oh wait, the robed tyrants already did that.
And in not taking Terri into protective custody, and having the murderer greer arrested for violating state law, Gov. Bush has enabled the last item. And in not sending federal marshals to protect Terri, and to arrest the murderer greer for contempt of Congress and violation of federal law, President Bush has also enabled that last item.
They're all hat, no cattle.

The Florida legislature had an opportunity to act, and didn't.
I certainly understand and agree with your anger, but you can't simply discard laws you don't agree with.
Hear, Hear!!!!
"Blackrobe" has a whole new meaning, eh?
