If homosexuality is genetically transmitted and abortion is legal, then conceivably we could stamp out homosexuality by genetic testing and aborting those babies carrying the hypothetical "homosexuality gene". If this had happened in the 1930's then you wouldn't be here--that is if homosexuality is genetically transmitted and not just a bad choice.

Re: "Exactly! As long as Roe stands, it serves as a precedent for judicial supremacy on a whole host of issues."

You are 1000% correct. When the court got away with the murder of millions and millions of innocent babies they knew they could get away with anything. Seven SCJ should have been removed from office, taken to court for conspiracy to the murder of millions and given a very different kind of "chair".

A signal needs to be given to the "Spectors" in Congress. You can keep your seat but the leash will be a short one and there will be no chairmanship rewards for being a pain in the a$$.

Title: GOP Sen. Specter Vows to Block Bush's Nominees

Recall that alleged Republican Sen. Arlen Specter of Pennsylvania, upon winning the primary, immediately backstabbed President Bush, who had campaigned for him instead of actual Republican Pat Toomey. Turns out Specter was just getting started.

We now see that the usually pro-Democrat Pittsburgh Post-Gazette endorsed the sharp-horned RINO in Tuesday's general election for this reason: "Before the Post-Gazette editorial board, he promised that no extremists would be approved for the bench."

What the pro-abortion Specter and pro-abortion Post-Gazette mean by "extremist" is anyone who isn't pro-abortion or who otherwise follows the U.S. Constitution instead of making up legislation from the bench.

"Even if he votes nine out of 10 times for the administration, we trust his word that the 10 percent of difference will be a brake on the worst excesses of a second Bush term, if it comes to that," the pee-yoo P-G snarled.

And there are these facts:

Arlen Specter:

Voted NO on ending special funding for minority & women-owned business. (Oct 1997)

Voted NO on banning affirmative action hiring with federal funds. (Jul 1995)

Here is something else to consider. In the 1992 Supreme Court case Planned Parenthood v. Casey, the Supreme Court had an opportunity to overturn Roe v. Wade. Chief Justice William Rehnquist and Associate Justices Byron White, Anthony Scalia, and Clarence Thomas voted to do so.

Those who voted to uphold Roe v. Wade included Associate Justices John Paul Stevens, Sandra Day O’Connor, David Souter, and Harry Blackmun. It was Associate Justice Anthony Kennedy who would cast the deciding vote in the case. Kennedy was initially going to vote to overturn Roe v. Wade but ultimately caved in to pressure from pro-abortion groups and voted to uphold it.

Kennedy should never have been a judge in the case. He was appointed to the Supreme Court only after the man nominated before him, Judge Douglas Ginsburg, was voted down by the Senate after admitting he had smoked marijuana in the past. And Ginsburg was only nominated because the man nominated before him was none other than Robert Bork, whose fate we already know. If not for Arlen Specter, it would have been Bork, not Kennedy, casting that deciding vote.

Thanks to Arlen Specter, one golden opportunity to overturn the atrocity that is Roe v. Wade has already been squandered. Can we really afford to put him in a position to do it again?

Remember: those who do not learn from the past are doomed to repeat it.

With 45 million babies dead and counting, perhaps it is time we informed Senate Majority Leader Bill Frist of the folly of giving Specter the power to replace Tom Daschle as obstructionist-in-chief.

MESSAGE FROM LAURA INGRAHAM:

STOP SPECTER NOW--WE NEED YOU: Liberal Pennsylvania Senator Arlen Specter, who bailed on the Supreme Court nomination of Robert Bork in 1987, and who ardently describes himself as pro-abortion rights, is slated to become the new chairman of the Judiciary Committee unless you act now. We need you to call your Republican senator and make your views on this heard asap. Contact Senate Judicary Committee members by clicking here and click here for the numbers of your all Republican senator(s). If your state is represented only by Democrats, call Majority Leader Sen. Bill Frist's office at 202 224 3344.

Arlen Specter warns Bush against nominating pro-life judges.

Let's face it -- Specter has essentially just announced he's rejoined the Democratic Party. That means he'll NOT be participating in the Judiciary Committee.

But who cares? Specter and imminent turncoat Chafee mean the GOP will still retain a 53-47 majority in the Senate. Get used to it folks. That's what happens when RINOs are chosen over real Pubbies.
