3. It's the same legal theory . . .
.

It's the same legal theory . . . both Roe v. Wade and the Right-to-Die-with-Dignity case law are derived from the right to privacy inferred in our federal constitution. Both of which slam up against religious zealots across America, whether Roman Catholic, Mormon, Eastern Christian Orthodox, Orthodox Jews, Southern Baptist Convention and other protestants extremists. It's all about religion.

The political activism of these groups is tiny. Tiny but vocal. And well financed due to it being tied into politics and the easy ability to get-out-the vote. Strange bedfellows are these newbie religion-into-law Republican types with the corporate America diehard conventional Republicans!

And George Walker Bush feeds off of them. Panders to them. Didn't he come to Washington, supposedly, to sign into law the Terri's Parents Act thereby cutting short his "vacation?!" Wow. Doesn't THAT sell big time? Who cares if this law is ruled unconstitutional? Regardless, it will get out the vote and fill the political campaign coffers!!
