Anybody watching CSPAN? www.stopactivistjudges.org & the Texas Justice |
|
Foundation....
They are talking about how there is the need to go after the Supreme Court and important to overturning Roe v. Wade....I think that this was a conference in DC that Al Franken was talking about this morning.
Wow...they are really going full force...they just showed an "ad" they are running around the country with testimonials of women who had abortions and regretted it....
Now they are talking about "what constitutes a good judge"...
Scary stuff folks....

1. I was going to post this thread |
|
but you beat me to it. Good for you. :bounce:
This is scary stuff, especially with the nuclear option coming up. What if they succeed with removing the filibuster option for Dems and * nominates all freeper judges??? OMG, literally. We'll have the constitution re-written within a year.
Now that's really scary...:evilgrin:

4. I'm just sitting here watching in disgust-they are talking about far more |
|
than dismantling Roe v Wade...they are talking about the 10 Commandments and the law that allows "sodomy"...
They want to rewrite the Constitution...right now they are busy dismantling the Constitution we have and the next step is to pack the Judicial Branch with their "kind" of judges and put in place "their kind of laws"....
When they have their way, we'll have something resembling "Shariah" (sp?) courts....

There will definately be a semblance of a totaltarism (sp ?) society by the end of *'s "reign".
And just think, once these judges are chosen, they're "lifers"! Holy shit!

Every single one of those women had their reasons for having an abortion, and it all came down to the fact that they were doing something more important and didn't have time to be pregnant or to have a child.
They seem to blame just that one incident in their lives for all of the things that they failed at. I've got one thing to say to all of them, "GET OFF THE CROSS SOMEONE ELSE NEEDS THE WOOD".

6. One thing they say is right |
|
I had an abortion about 30 years ago and I still think about it, to this day. The guy didn't want me to have the baby, and I had lost my mom in the last year, so I was very vulnerable. But I still think about it, and it still bothers me.
BUT - I'm glad I had the choice to make in the first place!!!!!!

7. I've never met a woman who felt "good" about an abortion, but I've never |
|
heard any of them say they "regret" the decision...If anything, many regretted the situation that they were in that didn't allow for them to care for a child or in a situation that they felt prepared to carry a pregnancy full-term whether it be health reasons or other. In any event, the bottom line is that this is also about far, far more than just abortion. It's about many issues, but the truth is, they want to impose their religion and interpretation of morals onto all of us....

9. I watched a few minutes of that |
|
after suffering through The Tonight Show to watch a rather sucky performance by Velvet Revolver. I came in just before the guy who started out talking about the 17th-century English colonists getting all of their ideas from the Bible. The thing that struck me is how they pepper their lies with phrases and keep repeating them, over and over again - unelected judges making laws ... squawk! ... unelected judges making laws. It blows me away to think they might actually believe what they're saying, much less that anyone else believes it. But I guess if you hear something enough, it sticks.

10. A little knowledge is a dangerous thing |
|
It's a little too late for them. At least that's what I hope.
And yes, this is a what watching a horde of hungry monkeys in the control room of a nuclear reactor is like.
