Rush Limbaugh admits to addiction
Today Rush Limbaugh told his audience that he has been addicted to pain killers for years since he had surgery on his spine. [Rush’s statement] Rush is asking for prayers as he endeavors to break his addiction over the next 30 days. As I wrote here a few days ago, becoming addicted to pain medication under these circumstances is a very forgivable failing.
Judicial insanity continues
Judicial insanity continues: A federal judge has thrown out a rape sentence of a man convicted of repeatedly raping the 8 year old daughter of his fiance, because Bible verses were read by the sentencing judge in court. [Article]
Supreme Court: Stillbirth Murder
The Supreme Court has already invented a constitutional right to privacy, a “right” that has led to legal abortion, the striking down of sodomy laws, etc. Proof that such a “right” is absurd, the court still upholds laws and rulings that interfere with this so-called right — such as not allowing private, personal drug use, prostitution, etc. But even more paradoxical is that the same court that has determined that this right means that a woman should be allowed to kill her unborn children, even late-term by having a doctor sever the child’s spinal cord and then extract the corpse from her womb, now is allowing a “stillbirth murder” ruling to stand. [Article] Here we have a cocaine addict who has been convicted of murder for killing her unborn child with drugs in her system. The absurdity of our judicial system’s arbitrary decisions regarding this “right” to privacy (which includes abortion rights) is amplified by the fact that if this woman had chosen to have a partial-birth abortion, instead of carry the child to term, there would be no legal question.
