Dubya and Jeb wash their hands of Terri Schiavo. "Base" duped again
Edited on Wed Mar-23-05 06:48 PM by Proud2BAmurkin
There are numerous other (unconstitutional) gimmicks they could try but they won't. No national guard. No executive order.

They'd be in deep shit if they did, though.

7. Part of this may well be a perverse...
... kind of entertainment for their fundie base. Does anyone remember the 1951 movie, "The Big Carnival?"

It's a gruesome thought, but all the external hoopla may have been designed get people stirred up, to turn something simple into a macabre extravaganza.... *sigh*

11. Me, too. I was thinking of it this afternoon
but couldn't remember the title.

Thanks -- now I won't be up half the night trying to think of it!

9. I hope he gets the blame.
And I hope that they all remember this in 08. Jebbie's been a terrible governor, and I wouldn't wish him on the rest of you all.

5. They read the public opinion polls
80% of America doesn't want to live under a Theocracy.

10. If the Sup. Ct. denies cert., this will be the poster child
They'll use this as their rationale to pack the Court.

I hope it blows up in their asses.
