Looks like the Republicans have the Senate...

This is a sad, sorry state of affairs. The Republican Party seems to be concerned with nothing more this Oedipal war on Iraq (which will do nothing but skew more radical sections of the Islamic world against the US, making us prone to more terror attacks) and getting Supreme Court justices nostalgic for the days of back-alley, coat hanger abortions. I'm not saying Democrats are great (in fact, I'm Green Party till the day I die), but the Republicans scare me.

The Supreme Court is already conservative enough...what's next? Roe v. Wade is already on thin ice...Are they going to repeal the 13th Amendment?

Seriously,

Bush's war on Iraq is hardly an attack on the Islamic world. Iraq is as much of a secular nation as the US is. I think the thing that adds to the continued terror attacks is more the US support of Israel rather than the US denouncing of Iraq. We denounced North Korea? are all the Asian countries going to start targeting us with terrorism? And i really don't think the war with Iraq is "Oedipal" in nature. It is not as if Hussein was Bush's father, or if W was attacking George Sr. outright.0

As far as abortions, ktsnake is right. No politician that wants to be re-elected would ever outlaw abortion. I can't speak for all Republicans, but i personally am morally against abortion. However, i understand that there are lots of people in todays society that disagree, and that by allowing it we are better able to regulate it. So, if i was a politician, i would probably not vote to outlaw abortion, but if i was ever faced with the situation, i would not see it as a viable option.
