Orval Faubus stood in the school-house door, believing that integration of the schools was wrong. His national reputation was not thereby improved.

But he didn't get impeached.

My sibling went Central High in LR, btw, not that you care, and I remember when they filmed the TV movie. Good times!

I'm trying to remember if Bennet had any problem with the California rulings allowing for gay marriage. Weren't those actions squarely in line with the philosophy he's promoting here?

Rosa Parks wouldn't get up, believing that segregation of the buses was wrong. Her national reputation was much improved.

bzzzzt, nice try. There was no River Walk at the time that movie was filmed.

Sonny something Steakhouse is the only decent restaurant and it actually is mediocre- why would people stay there? liquor isn't from state stores which is good, but hell other states have that.

I have no idea what you are talking about. As I said, it was a long time ago.

That was pretty brave of him, to wait until after his last election to focus on the issue. Let's just say that his political courage has been well remarked-upon by the congressional Republicans whom he's asking to stick their necks out. His road show is still trying to rally these troops.

The White House has conceded that the President's plan, such as it is, doesn't do anything to help the purported crisis. So in that sense, nothing is being done.

To what office had she been elected? Did she take an oath to uphold the constitution?

BTW, didn't we have this debate re Gavin Newsom already?

I Find This Unbelievable
 

I don't think Newsom and Parks even knew each other.

"would have done." It was uncovered before, instead of after, passage.

Remember, Hank, the early discussions of SocSec reform, when the introduction of private, er, personal accounts would solve the problem????


Ah, those sweet, halcyon days. Gave Cato Institute staffers a narcotic stronger than heroin, so they say.

Nor did Rosa know Jeb.

Newsom acted against the law, which was enacted via the proposition process, by marrying same sex couples. I doubt Bennet agreed with Newsom on this.

http://wwwimage.cbsnews.com/images/2...age681621l.jpg Is that Terri? If so, who decided to let Katherine (Kathleen?) Harris (or whatever the FL gov't woman who had something to do with the 2000 vote counts name is) do her makeup? And who the hell did her hair?

Maybe the picture is from the 80s.

I Find This Unbelievable
 

If I recall correctly, Newsom argued that the proposition was unconstitutional under the State Constitution, and at least one court has subsequently agreed with him on that point. Bennet is arguing that Bush should go in, guns a blazing under some sort of "natural" law. In my mind that's slightly different.

Thats not Terri. That's a Franklin Mint plate commemorating the Cure's 1986 outdoor concert on the steps of the Capitol.

He married couples before the case was decided.

And?

I understand that, but I still think it's slightly different rationale. At least he was looking at state law, not some superceding natural law.

I Find This Unbelievable
 

Newsome thought there was a constitutional problem. Bennet said explicitly that Bush saw a constitutional problem. They both thought they were also serving their own moral precepts. Where's the meaningful difference?

It's all good now....
 

I think you have it backwards. She was upfront about it.

I Find This Unbelievable
 

They are the same. Both looked at the law and decided they didn't like it, so they acted outside of it. I'm with Ty - process is very important.

I Find This Unbelievable
 

The words "natural law."

I didn't say that Newsome was right. I just thought the rationale was slightly different.

I Find This Unbelievable
 

Why are you giving Ty props. I've been the one arguing process (or Procedure, as Bilmore would have it) all along.

I'm miffed.

I Find This Unbelievable
 

I wasn't limiting it to this case. I'm recalling the debate we had here on the Newsom case. If you are a process guy too, I'm happy to give you props.

I think there's a difference between, on the one hand, Bennett and MLK, and, on the other, Gavin Newsome, Jeb Bush and Orval Faubus. Civil disobediance is more likely appropriate when engaged in by people not in power. MLK and Bennett can go get themselves arrested because that's all they can do -- they have no official power. (Bennett is odious because you can rest assured that while he'll write that Bush should disobey the law, you can be sure that Bennett won't get off his ass to do it -- he'll be too busy telling whoever ghostwrites the Virtues line of books to write faster.) Jeb Bush and Orval Faubus are the executives of sovereign states, so they are exactly the wrong people to engage in any kind of civil disobediance. They embody state power, so the pose of acting against it rubs the wrong way. With Gavin Newsome, it wasn't so bad, because he wasn't the supreme official, and he openly acknowledged the authority of the state courts to tell him to stop.

FIGHT THE LEFTIST DEATH POWER!
 

Greeting death mongers! I imagine that you must be celebrating a premature “victory” on this tragic day in our once great nation’s history. The activist liberal judiciary seems close to its goal of state sanctioned thus cementing the left and its democrat party as beacons of death and moral degeneracy. Still, I remain faithful that the true spirit of hope and patriotism of the American people will prevail and its wrath will be turned on the democrat party and its accomplices in the liberal judiciary.

The death sentences to the children at WACO, Elian and now the poor innocent brain damaged Schiavo will not sit without uprising. The nation is being forced to face the demon menace of the leftwinger cultists, and I predict that this day will resonate in the democrat party beING utterly destroyed in 2006 as tens of millions of God-loving and fearing Christians and Jews and other faithful turn their vengeance on at the polls.

Celebrate death now because your doomsday is approaching rapidly.

And yet, as grim as it looks, there is one last gasp of hope for life. JEB. Certainly this is the defining moment in his political evolution. A bold act, in defiance of the deathwhore Greer, to send in the Guard or the state police and take protective custody of this helpless young girl would certainly result in President Jeb come 2008. Pray for him to have the strength to fulfill a glorious vision.

It would be sweet vindication during this holiest weekend for robbing Elian of his freedom, like Reno’s raid in reverse. I can picture it coming in the middle of the night tonight as a SWAT team descends on the hospice in a convoy of Hummers and Ambulances with a team of Florida Guardsmen, triage doctors and nurses who can immediately administer saline and liquid nourishment to Terri while spiriting her off to safe haven. As the convoy heads out while Felos and Mike Schiavo are maced in the face as they try to interfere with justice. FREEDOM. Amen.

We agree. I meant to say that the action that Bennet was proposing (i.e., Jeb's disobedience) and Newsom's are on par.
