"If Bush gets elected, he won't appoint anti-choice zealots to the Supreme Court. You're overreacting. He's a moderate. He's only using those Evangelicals to get into office... they don't really have any influence on him. And there's no agenda to overturn Roe. You're being paranoid. What we really need to worry about are those scary terrorists - and he's my Joe Sixpack dream of a Jack Ryan wannabe who's gonna protect us."
General gist of an actual 2004 election year conversation I had with someone very dear to me who was blinded by the flag waving into voting for Bush even though he's been a lifelong Dem.
Today: Reshaped Supreme Court agrees to review a U.S. appeals court ruling that declared unconstitutional the Partial-Birth Abortion Ban Act, signed into law by Bush in 2003, because it lacks an exception to protect the health of a pregnant woman.
Another day where I hate being proved right.
