Conservative Score Card

ACTIVIST JUDGES

Then:
We are STRONGLY OPPOSED to activist judges!

Now:
We demand activist judges.


THE CULTURE OF LIFE

Then:
Let's nuke Iraq! Let's execute minors!
Poor people don't deserve health care!
Seniors can go to Canada if they need drugs!

Now:
We must err on the side of life.
(And kill anyone who disagrees.)


FRIVOLOUS LAWSUITS

Then:
Damn lawyers are RUINING AMERICA!

Now:
I understand that this case has been
heard twenty-two times already, but surely they'll change their minds this time.


PLAYING POLITICS

Then:
Shameless Democrats are always playing politics!

Now:
"God has brought us Terri Schiavo."
"The pro-life base will be excited."
"This is a great political issue."


THE SANCTITY OF MARRIAGE

Then:
A marriage is between a MAN and a WOMAN and nothing should come between that!

Now:
I don't think Terri's husband should make this decision. Jeb Bush should do it for him.


THE RULE OF LAW

Then:
Don't you Dummycrats know that
this is a nation of LAWS?!

Now:
Stupid laws.


STATES RIGHTS

Then:
We should take the federal government
and drown it in a bathtub!

Now:
It warms my heart when the federal government intrudes upon a private family matter.


THE CONSTITUTION

Then:
You stupid America-hating
LIEberals should go back to Russia!

Now:
Damn, I've run out of toilet paper.
Wait, this old rag should do the trick.
