With drapes over a nude statue of Justice! ... which somehow managed to offend a pompous prig who is also the Reverend Attorney General, and the other moves mentioned in the link - one might suppose that a coup d'etat du sacre is unsubtly under way. Of course, on the surface this ploy is meant to convey a new Admin concern for prenatal care. But the phrasing makes evident what part of the agenda is occurring.

9/11 appears to have provided the perfect rubric for successively imposing the theology of a tiny minority of Fundamentalists upon the mass - no matter what the Constitution says. (National Security requires a closer alliance with God) Now with a Fundamentalist as AG, a Resident in accord - and the recently disgraced USSC as wild card:

What do you think the chances are for the bastard-birth soon, of the United Sanctified States? (Tell me that this trend is a Big Surprise..)

(I won my $20 bet - after Ashcroft rose from the dead in Missouri - that within 2 years we would see such moves.) I may win the next one too, after the Selecting Justices of the Resident - one or two - retire on cue, and Kenneth Starr or a clone nobody heard of, joins the Congregation: moves onward to trash Roe V.

(I should have made it an extra $10, if the ruling also labels Drs. performing abortions as Terrorists 2nd Class, but 9/11 hadn't happened, so that would have seemed absurd)

As will likely be - what is coming next.

2.98 years to go - within which, to replace that naked statue of Justice, with a crucifix.
