Can we presume from this statement that if your state orders your death as an innocent, you will urge restraint by the federales in their sworn duty to protect your right to life?
If you were President would you have risked impeachment to save Terr? Because sure as God made little green apples the Dems would have tried to Impeach President Bush if he had interfered any further and they may have succeeded. Jeb faced jail time and loss of his office if he interfered any further.
I didn't see any of you that are screaming about how gutless they (Jeb, George and assorted congress people)are risking your life, your career and jail time to help her.
Until you are ready to back up your talk with action then you are as gutless as those you critisize. If they are cowards what does that make you?
As to the question this post asks, are the republicans split over this issue, I would say real republicans aren't but the fair weather ones will probably drop out. Good riddance to you.
