Lust for Life

I have a funny feeling about these preemptive attacks on Alberto Gonzales by conservative groups claiming he’s not conservative enough of a choice for the Supreme Court. Is this some (other) smoke-and-mirrors play to make pro-choicers embrace him only to have their “evil” plot foiled when Gonzales votes to overturn Roe v. Wade sometime down the road?

America seems to be solidly behind the “legal, safe, and rare” abortion ideal. So, now the Democrats for Life and the National Right to Life Committee want everyone to know that the Court striking down Roe v. Wade wouldn’t make abortion immediately legal. Well, in 43 states, anyway.
