Grovelling before the Supreme Court

Recently, the Arkansas legislature, by overriding the Democrat Governor’s veto, put in place a ban on most abortions after 12 weeks. Governor Beebe didn’t use a good reason to veto the bill, such as the fact that the bill didn’t protect all babies. That’s a veto I would respect. No, he’s simply a pro-abort. Here's Beebe’s statement in support of his veto:

You know, you put your hand on the Bible and you're supposed to swear to uphold the constitution. It should mean something.

That’s a sad joke. Maybe, Governor Beebe can explain where either the Constitution or the Bible justifies baby-killing. He really meant:

You know, when you desecrate the Bible to swear to uphold the ideological inclinations of Harry Blackmun and the other baby-killing justices on the court, it should mean something.

It means something alright. It means the Governor is unworthy of his office and grossly negligent in his duty.  But he’s not the only one. Last year, pro-abortion Arkansas Attorney General Dustin McDaniel refused to allow a personhood initiative to go forward because it conflicted with Roe v. Wade. Republican House Majority Leader Bruce Westerman said:

Not the governor, nor anyone else other than the courts, can determine if something is constitutional or unconstitutional. (Emphasis added)

Representative Bruce Westerman is glad to relinquish his duty to the courts.

Abraham Lincoln had a different view. In his first inaugural address, he said:

If the policy of the Government upon vital questions affecting the whole people is to be irrevocably fixed by decisions of the Supreme Court... the people will have ceased to be their own rulers, having to that extent practically resigned their Government into the hands of that eminent tribunal.
