sheesh, McCain, get to the latter half of the 2000 decade will you?

Not only is this nutcase talking nothing but the "party line", but it's the party line as so declared 5 years ago. NONE of the Republicans are using this useless and outdated rhetoric anymore...who the hell does he hope to appease with this tripe?

Stranger Fruit: McCain on Roe vs Wade:

McCain also vowed that if elected, he would appoint judges who "strictly interpret the Constitution of the United States and do not legislate from the bench."

Fuck you, McCain. You're done. You're actually trying to out reactionary the reactionaries and this country doesn't need to take one more step backwards into the shitholes we've finally started to get away from. We're just now realizing we need to clean our shoes and you want to go traipsing through the shit-infested pig stye for more.

The Falwell-followers and the rest of their ultra-right religious ilk who have been taking the credit for putting both Bush and Reagan in office and therefore Are Them What Must Be Appeased.

He's obviously never heard of the pendulum theory of society. Also, he seems to have developed a taste for kool-aid.

Sad, really, that every Republican canidate seems to feel the need to pander to the Religious Right. All that does is push the centrists further left, and in the end, it is the people in the center who decide these things.

I've long suspected that the phrase "legislating from the bench" is a code phrase used by politicians to mean "You're not doing things MY way."
