Romney and Bush are the poster boys for weak executives who are so brainwashed by the judicial supremacist myth that they will ignore their oath to uphold the constitution and let out-of-control judges destroy our most basic societal standards and even the very right to live of citizens.

I wish I has a dime for every time you wrote "judicial supremacist."

How about you give two examples of each man doing this in what you consider to be the WRONG way and enlighten us all as to the action they SHOULD have taken.

That's easy. In the Schiavo case, all Jeb Bush would have had to do was sit down and write a couple of paragraphs invoking his executive power and duty as the Governor of the State of Florida to enforce Article One, Section Two of the state's constitution. Two troopers deliver the order to the hospice, and bada bing, Terri would still be with her family today. By the way, I had a long conversation with the LEO officers in front of the hospice, and asked them explicitly about this. They made it clear that they would have obeyed such an order instantaneously.

In Romney's case, he used his executive power to enforce an unlawful and unconstitutional edict from four out-of-control judges to implement gay marriage. The legislature ignored the court, effectively checking them, but Romney caved, joining the court in checking the legislature. The result? Gay marriage, even though there is still no law authorizing it. All Romney had to do was NOTHING, and there isn't a thing the court could have done about it. If he had, gay marriage would not be in effect in MA.
