Terri Fallout
When Terri's horrific ordeal is over and she is finally able to rest in peace, what is going to happen politically and culturally? You already see certain politicos making sure they cover their asses. No doubt some judges will do the same. Depending on the size of the backlash, there will be more who come out of the woodwork and declare they were doing everything they could do behind the scenes to save Terri's life. Will there even be a backlash? If not, will that give the "deathheads" license to go full speed ahead with their agenda of euthanasia?
It's my opinion that there is going to be a huge backlash, the likes of which we have never seen in this country this side of the civil war. And all but a very few of the left will have come down on the wrong side of this issue. All out war (ie, political) will take place in the appointment of federal judges because the left can only win in the courts and they will do whatever they have to do to win this ideological war. It will not be a fair fight and it certainly won't be pretty!
The republicans had best get on the stick posthaste to make sure that a simple majority is all that is necessary for judges to be approved. And they would be smart to nix the inappropriate nomenclature now known as the "nuclear option." The republicans have the majority so they shouldn't use the language of their minority opponents.
When Terri dies, you better fasten your seat belt folks, because it's going to be a real bumpy ride for a while.
The judicial/legislative/executive branch war is going to bring out the worst in everybody. (Note to Christians: mind your p's and q's. Don't let down in prayer. Support the good guys, and pray for our country. The culture war has been kicked up notches heretofore unknown to mankind.)
