"and that's from a Bush-basher"

It doesn't take much to get back on the reservation when rumors are afoot that Hillary may run for president in '04.

Thank God for George W. Bush. Where he needs help, I suggest that one prays for it and perhaps writes him a letter.

W. has blessed our wallets. I suggest we all choose a good pro-life candidate facing opposition and give of our wallets and our works, in return.

I believe this has been the rule but some organizations try to get around the prohibitions.This will close some loopholes.If these organizations want to counsel abortion,they can do without our funds.That's not too complicated to "get".
