What's Going On?

"One thing that's going on is a climate of fear for those who try to enforce laws that religious extremists oppose."

Krugman trys to wrap his head around the Shiavo affair. "Everyone knows about the attempt to circumvent the courts through "Terri's law." I states. BushCo maintains the religious and moral front when really it is an assault on the judicial system. They do not have full control of that branch yet and think that they are above the law. Some folks think Democracy is all about the laws or rule, and has no room for rule of law. Well, bad mouth Krugman all you want. If the shoe were on the other foot, as it was back when the GOP was the minority in the early 90s, then we wouldn't be having this conversation.

Randi Rhodes of Air America keeps saying the Schiavo affair is really about the control of the courts. She usually hits it on the mark... Be prepared.
