So Let it be Written, So Let it be Done.

I've seen people on FB throw themselves into breathless fits of hysteria over the fact that Santorum believes that Griswold v CT was wrongly decided. It must be that people have so lost all understanding of how our government works that the opinion of the President has the weight of law. Guess what? It doesn't! I'll guarantee you that with a conservative president, four or eight years down the line, contraception would not be outlawed, nor would even abortion. Why? Because conservatives govern by the rule of law. We are a country with a government of laws, not of men. If those on the left would say that a conservative president COULD NOT outlaw the coverage of contaceptives under your own health insurance, then HOW COULD a liberal president mandate them for ANY price?

I've decided to allow posting without moderation to encourage discussion; hopefully that won't have to change. Therefore, be aware that I may not necessarily agree with any of the comments others have made.

We may discuss adult subjects, but vulgar language and pornographic comments will be deleted. Disagreements between readers are OK, but this site aims to be faithful to the teaching of the Catholic faith and all commenters should keep that in mind.

Like Mark Shea says, conduct yourselves as if you're in my living room.

Oh, and by the way, sales pitches will be shown the trash can.
