Supreme Court Opening Will Test Strength of Religious Conservatives
Religious conservatives are gearing up for what could be the biggest political battle of our day. Christianity Today has a good article describing what is at stake for conservatives over the replacement of Justice O'Conner in the Supreme Court. With comments from Fallwell, Dobson, and Kennedy, the article shows the determination and resolve of American conservatives who are now looking to Bush for some return on their investment into his presidency.
I have to admit, this was one of the issues forefront in my mind when I went to the polling booth to cast my vote for Bush -- twice. The prospect of a Supreme Court vacancy or two made these last two elections that much more crucial in my mind. I don't entertain any fancy notions of Roe Vs. Wade being overturned in the event of conservative appointees. However, I do look eagerly toward a time when activist judges are a minority voice in America and the constitution is interpreted by courts as it was originally intended. The rulings from the Supreme Court in the last week alone have made this appointment that much more important for America.

Amen to that!
Couldn't have said it better myself.
This is a great artile link. Now we really will find out if Bush is "one of our own" to quote from the CT artile and other sources.
