that makes sense

So, if I understand this, republicans think that if a female minor is pregnant and needs an emergency abortion because her health is in danger, the law must take precedence over her health and that her parents must be notified before the procedure takes place, no matter how long it takes to notify them and even if she will die unless it is done immediately.

They also feel that if a president feels he needs to wiretap a suspected enemy of the United States immediately because he thinks there might be a ticking time bomb somewhere that following the law and retroactively requesting a warrant in the seventy-two hour period permitted under the FISA court, well, that's just a little too restrictive.


At least they aren't hobbled by any unnecessary consistency of logic.
