I will re-evaluate whether or not it is appropriate to continue to support the Republican Party.

You can think, do you think leaving the party is the best way to overturn Roe vs Wade?

I understand why they didn't. To act in that way would be to invite titanic struggles over basic constitutional issues for the rest of their terms. To act in that way would have been to harm the agenda for Social Security reform, tax reductions, etc. And against those great corporal works of mercy, who are we to insist on the life of one innocent woman?

Actually the whole of the prolife movement is being painted as hysterical people who will shut down a Hospice, for a pointless protest. If they were to shut down the Florida Legislature, more would be done, because without the clear backing of the Senate, which was miserable, and the a legal precedent, nothing would change. What is Jeb supposed to do, order his agents to shoot the local police?

Thinking that Gov Bush is more culpable than the Senate, Judge Greer and the other appeals courts, as well as the authors of the starvation law is manipulation of YOU by our enemies. The DNC is scripting this through the MSM, and you are setting the hook like any good fish. Prepare for the frying pan.

Dear Dominick,

"You can think, do you think leaving the party is the best way to overturn Roe vs Wade?"

I don't know, Dominick. That's why I said "I will re-evaluate."

Just how would Roe be overturned? By appointing more Nazgul by Republicans? Like O'Connor (nominated by a Republican president, confirmed by a Republican Senate), Souter, Stevens, or Kennedy? I remember when Kennedy went to the Court. He was against Roe. What changed?

Well, he's still against Roe. But he is more FOR judicial supremacy. He is a moral monster.

I know that the Democrat Party will not bring us to a place where the three branches of government exist in some kind of balance, and where life is respected in law. But I'm no longer sure that the Republican Party can, either. Like I said, I'll have to do some thinking.

If the Republican Party can't or won't get it done, we'll have to try something else. Remember the Whigs.

As for Jeb and law enforcement authorities, he could have told the state troopers, go in with overwhelming numbers, arrest anyone who resists you, take Terri into protective custody. I doubt any of the local police would have opened fire on state troopers, but if any had, then prosecution for capital murder of law enforcement authorities would seem to be in order. If the individual miscreant lived to tell the tale.

"Thinking that Gov Bush is more culpable than the Senate,..."

Gee, I don't think I've ever said anything like that. Although I think the Bush boys (all hat, no cattle) have shown themselves to be proper politicians, and nothing more, certainly it is the murderer greer, the psychopath felos, and the vermin m. schiavo who are the principal bad actors in this whole affair. The courts, up and down, certainly come in a close second in the measures of perfidy, followed by a weak Florida state legislature.

The Bush boys come in a far distant fourth. They are not the principal murderers. They are merely holding the coats of those doing the murdering. The US Congress approached the threshold of decency, but fell back. In fairness, the Legislature, unlike the Executive, has no enforcement authority of its own. However, a very public request by the leaders of the US Congress to the Executive to enforce the legally-binding subpoena of the US Congress by arresting the murderer greer would have been nice.

But they, too, have proven to be little else but proper politicians.

I can see that the Democrats are likely near-ecstatic at the whole turn of events, but I suspect there isn't much Democrat or DNC involvement. When your enemies decide to shoot themselves, the best thing to do is to just stay out of the way.

And if the Democrats are smart, they will see some basic, fundamental fissures in the conservative coalition. Perhaps they will figure out how to exploit those fissures. I don't know.

For me, there are two questions: How to we return respect for life to the law? How do we recover self-rule from the lawlessness of the judges? The two questions are intertwined, I think.

Maybe the monarchists are right. ;-)
