I haven't decided to be civil yet

So I'll point you to someone who has. Here's an interesting post from Jack Balkin on the Schiavo case. He points something out that I had not thought of. Most conservatives claim that if Roe is overturned, states will be able to write their own abortion laws. The Schiavo case suggests they may be, as in all other cases, lying fucking sacks of regurgitated pig shit. Chances are, given the opportunity, Republicans in Congress will write a broad, anti-abortion law as soon as they can get their fat asses down to the Capitol and do so. Really, they probably have one stashed away at HQ already. Anyway, read Jack Balkin for smart, rational posts.
