Well, the Republican majority does have a holy mandate to create a culture of life and protect innocents from murdering liberals, even if it means undermining the entire system of checks and balances and limitation of federal powers... or didn't you get that memo?

Sorry for the sarcastic response, but I don't really have a logical one. I assumed you were talking about the latest media diversion in the form of Terri Schiavo. I could say what I think the GOP's purpose is in getting involved, but then I'd just get bitter and cynical and ranty, and no one wants to see that.
