I bet the congressional Republicans are so pissed right now. It is stuff like this that exposes their unmitigated impotence and obtuseness. Now they will be forced to once again threaten and yell and stomp their feet, all the while knowing that they won’t do a damn thing.

Hah. When Dubya was President he had a Republican Senate and a Republican House. If people can’t figure out why nothing was done regarding abortion then, they need a refresher course on Machiavelli.
The GOP isn’t impotent on the issue of abortion. The reality is that they have absolutely no interest in ending the practice. The sole interest of the GOP establishment regarding abortion is to exploit the issue when election time rolls around.
They will make a show of being against it in order to get the usual gaggle of rubes and hayseeds (aka “the conservative base”, or “us”) to vote for them. Works every time. We never manage to figure out why, when they actually have controlled the government, nothing gets done. We aren’t The Stupid Party for nothin’.
