OH, HAPPY DAY!!

Well, what can I say about today? Today was an affirmation of LIFE. In direct repudiation of the party of DEATH (Democrats), today we Republicans showed what we can do once we realize we have a backbone.

The special session of the State Legislature called by Governor Bush for a completely unrelated subject (economic development) used it’s God-given timing to quickly, and probably it was record setting, pass a bill through the House, to the Senate and back through the House again to save the life of Terri Schiavo. Governor Bush immediately signed the bill and decreed that Terri’s feeding tube should be put back in. Her cockroach of a husband immediately looked for a judge to halt the stay but he was denied. The bad news was he was denied on a technicality and can try again to kill his wife, but hey, any little bit helps.

In a development that may save even more lives is the U.S. Senate passed the partial birth abortion ban. This means the bill will go to the President’s desk and because our current President has a conscience, he will sign it. Of course, the forces of evil and operatives from the party of death will immediately appeal it to the Supreme Court, so the fate of the law is unknown. But, it’s a start and any little progress is loved by yours truly.

So, all in all, it was a day of unsure victories, but victories none the less. What we should take from this is the power of prayer and the knowledge of what party (Democrat or Republican) is really looking out for the powerless in this country.
