Yes. Exactly.
Not only is Sarah PRO LIFE, but she has LIVED IT. It’s one thing to say your pro-life and its a whole other thing to actually LIVE it
First off, if this is all about abortion, which it appears to be, one side has no clue.
A)Gov Palin just backed a parental consent law that was struck down last time by the AK SC by 1 vote. I highly doubt she’d knowingly pick a new Judge who will have a big say on whether the new attempt succeeds, who she knew was pro choice or for abortion. I mean, it just defies all common sense
B)The system is such that she had to choose between one of two and neither of them are exactly conservative superstars. Then again, at the state level and especially in Alaska you don’t really find too many Federalist Society Clarence Thomas clones. There’s a reason judges like Scalia and Thomas and Roberts and Alito and Bork and others never served at the state level. It would be like if Bush in 2005 had to choose between Souter and Breyer for Chief Justice(and now there’s word that this new Judge may be more conservative than previously thought). No one would blame him for picking one of them.
But C)Most importantly, even if the new AK SC upholds the abortion law it will immediately get appeale dto the 9th ct which is the most liberal in the country where it will be instantly struck down. So this whole thing is really a fool’s errand and much ado about nothing
But knowing what I know about her, and what most of us know about her, anyone who would think that Gov Palin would set out to do anything that would hurt the prolife cause just doesn’t know her. Her prolife credentials are second to none.
