OK, here goes: Bush signed the PBA ban. Satisfied?
The PBA ban was immediately tied up in courts, and Bush instructed his administration not to aggressively fight it.
The PBA ban has not saved ONE baby. Even if it were law, it would simply instruct to kill the baby by a more brutal process, just not with its head delivered. Poor child.
The worst effect of the PBA ban is that it was a "low cost" measure, politically, that provided cover for fake "pro-life" politicians, who will use pro-life voted to get elected, and then DO NOTHING THAT WILL OUTLAW ABORTION for another entire term. One step closer to their big pension checks.
It has been going this way for 31 years, while the most innocent among us are murdered without protection. How long will we allow them to play the game?
Do you think he was right in signing the partial birth abortion ban?
Bush can't tell judges what to do. Neither can the CP candidate. Its going to take a constitutional amendment. Something that can't be done under currenr circumstances. But elect enough Republicans and it might. </font>[/QUOTE]But Ballfan,
That's not what the CP'ers want. They want a benevolent "Hitler". A dictator who will make all the "right" choices that agree with their political positions. To heck with American Ideals and Political Debate and Democracy - "This is what we want and we're gonna have it."
This kind of mindset is in my opinion much more dangerous than the Democratic Mindset or the Republican Mindset.
And think for a minute. Who did M. Peroutka choose for a running mate? An Independent Baptist Preacher! Would you want an Independent Baptist Preacher a heartbeat away from the Presidency?
Keep in mind the average Independent Baptist Preacher's Mindset.
1. The Preacher is the Boss
2. The Preacher is in Charge of the Money
3. The Preacher Tells the Congregation what to do.
4. There are no Committees under the Preacher that have authority to do anything without his approval.
5. The Preacher has veto power of everything a churchmember does.
You think the Presidents we've had in the past have abused their executive power. You would long for the days of Lyndon Johnson and Richard Nixon if an Independent Baptist Preacher with the Average Independent Baptist Preacher's Mindset inherited the Presidency.
