Let's Not Lose Sight of This One

Let's remember that, with all that is going on, we still have to deal with a very frightful situation in the upcoming Supreme Court hearings.

Women's rights are on the line, people.

And while this administration's influence has certainly waned, its effects remain. Don't believe me? Read on.

I don't think I need to "fight the good fight" on this one here. This issue has many levels -- too many for this blog. But I need to say that there is some confusion here as to what the fight is about. This is NOT a fight about life. This is a fight about women's rights over their own bodies.

And as for the "opinion" of that manipulative embarrassment of a president?

"I will lead our nation toward a culture that values life -- the life of the elderly and the sick, the life of the young, and the life of the unborn. I know good people disagree on this issue, but surely we can agree on ways to value life by promoting adoption and parental notification, and when Congress sends me a bill against partial-birth abortion, I will sign it into law."

Valuing life. From a man who has authorized war that has killed over 2,000 Americans and tens of thousands of Iraqis. From a man who, as governor of Texas, oversaw 150+ executions.

It's not about valuing life. Let's not lose sight of this one.
