Some of the fiscal conservatives and libertarians in the forum don't seem to realize that there is NO WAY a conservative government can be formed without pro-life help. If they think their issues are important, I can assure them that the right to life is far more basic to us.
If Bush nominates a pro-abortion candidate for SCOTUS, he will go down in flames. That is the one thing that is simply unacceptable. Legalized abortion has been distorting our entire justice system for more than 30 years. It must go.
I had no problems with Gonzalez as attorney general, but he is unacceptable for SCOTUS. Absolutely unacceptable. That one move would undo everything Bush has done for the pro-life cause, pure and simple.
I'll strongly disagree with you on that. A pro-abort will be a shoe-in. Almost all of the democrats would vote for one, and at least 10, more likely 20 Republicans would do so as well. Where are you going to get 51 votes to defeat a pro-abort judge if one was put up by Bush?
