Exposing the "Culture of Life"

Another must-read op-ed from Alex Epstein, this time exposing the religous right's claim that they promote a "culture of life" as smokescreen to cover what they really stand for: suffering.

And just to demonstrate to yourself how far these nuts will go, read this Bill Bennett op-ed proclaiming that it is fine and dandy for the executive to step in and enforce its idea of a constitution any time it disagrees with the interpretation of the judiciary.  The specific law here mentioned is the "Terri's Law" passed by the Florida legislature, which essentially gave Governor Bush the power to overrule the courts and legislate on his own.  So, what do you call a situation where one man writes, interprets and executes laws as he sees fit, with no oversight?  Oh yeah, dictatorship.
