This is not self-government. This is nothing but polarized party politics. Parties are not in the Constitution; when will the Supreme Court just uphold a prohibition?
And this is not about life, it is about domination. About men, some of whom cannot stand to not dominate women, to just be co-operative. Men like women to respect them; respecting women, mothers, and children is the best way to get there.
You do realize that Stupak and Capps are members of the same party, right? This isn't polarized party politics. This is Religion gone bad. There are times for awareness of emotional tone, and there are times to scream the alarm. "Playing nice" with The Family will lead to abortion being illegal here, and gay people killed in Uganda. http://www.metroweekly.com/gauge/last_word/2009/12/have-your-tax-dollars-helped-e.html
