If you expect Romney to have overridden a law passed by the legislature, then you should be able to show how he can do so legally.
All that’s required is to cite the preexisting Mass law that exempted Catholic hospitals under a conscientious objector policy.
If you (and the Catholic hospitals) believe that the previous law overrides the newer law, then take it to court. The governor doesn't have the power to make that call.
MEGoody: “The governor doesn’t have the power to make that call.”
Seriously, man, can you not follow the story?
The entire article is ABOUT Romney “making the call.”
He made the call one way earlier in the week.
Then he made the call the exact opposite way earlier in the week.
Romney does in fact “make the call” as to whether and how his own state agencies enforce state law, and he announced that the Dept of Health first would, then wouldn’t, exempt Cat hospitals.
READ the story. If Romney hadn’t “made the call” two different ways in the same week, there wouldn’t have been a story in the first place.
Is there no limit to the lengths you’ll go to try to absolve this man of ANY responsibility for his actions?!
