God and Government (split from "Tie in with EP163: Revolution Time")

I meant having the supreme court make a ruling and then not having politicians in different parts of the country trying to wriggle around the meaning of the ruling.  Just having a set of rules that are the law and moving on.

Good luck with that... wriggling is what attorney-Tiggers do best!

My orignal point was that it will never happening, because niether side wants it.

That depends on what you mean by "sides", I think. It seems to me that the majority of pro-choice activists are OK with the current compromise, and are mainly concerned with making sure it doesn't get overturned by the pro-life activists. Obviously, there are people who won't be happy until every conceivable abortion is legal, but the ones who are actually willing to fight for that seem comparatively rare.

If you also read my original post, you'll know I was talking ybout the political parties.  Everytime one side makes a move, both sides benefit from donations.
