Bull... Election of Hitlery Clinton would be infinitely worse.

You don't get it, do you? Imagine, 2008 becoming the year in history that is looked upon as the year that the Republican party became a pro-abortion party in practice (with the pro-life plank in the platform eventually changed).

No, the Republicans if they vote in Rudy are going the way of the Whig party.

The republic party is not about to become a Pro-Abortion party... There is no movement to remove the plank and to suggest that there is is nonsense.

I know its hard for you to grasp, but not every person in the party or elected to position with an R beside their names (or D for that matter) marches lock step with the platform. However when you have one that doesn’t that doesn’t mean the platform has changed.

Roe V Wade even if 100% overturned does not END abortion, this is another concept some of you seem to not understand. It simply removes it from the federal jurisdiction, which BTW Congress could have done at ANY time... Yes, Congress can remove ANY issue from the perview of the court... Just like they did Reconstruction. We had a Republican congress and a republican Senate for over a decade, and not once was this even brought up.

If the party is so Anti-Abortion in its day to day actions why wasn’t this by the stroke of a pen removed from the perview of the court? Hmmmm?

Politics is pragmatic...Rhetoric is not. What you and others continue to offer is Rhetoric, not practicle and pragmatic realities.
