NEW YORK CITY. I woke up early Saturday and made my way to volunteer at the Women's Homeless Shelter at the Armory on Park and 68th. One of our Obama allies organizes a gelato, stess relief, time to heal hour. And the women were stressed because there was SO MUCH fighting the night before. These women are a reminder of what happens to people live without a safety net. Next I made my way down to City Hall to support our workers from all over the city. We are all SO inspired by Wisconsin and the fight for jobs. Funny how those Republicans who ran on creating jobs do nothing but try to take them away. I love the ingenious signs, but especially all the cheese heads. Many of us walked right from this rally to the Women's Health Rally at Foley Square. Who would have guessed we still have to fight to keep changes that help women? Hmmm, many less naive than me. Then, this morning many of the same volunteers from yesterday made their way back uptown to another homeless shelter for breakfast for and with some residents at 81st Street. And so it has been a full circle weekend. But the overall theme was we can't right all wrongs but we can fight the wrongs of the right. “Man’s capacity for justice makes democracy possible; but man’s inclination to injustice makes democracy necessary.”–Reinhold Niebuhr

Bush has deciced to overreach in a way similar to the Schiavo fiasco. At that time there was an air of cavalier overstepping. Bush flew in from somewhere else, and made a decree that ran counter to his rights and the rights of state. People like Bill Frist supported him. Of note is the fact that at this time Frist was a presidential hopeful. Once it became apparent what the American people thought of this intrusive decision...it was the beginning of the end for Frist and aspirations that would require a majority to support him. It is no coincidence that although the Democratic candidates have weighed in; at this moment only Fred Thompson has formally spoken out in support. They know that this is a key moment. Do they jump with Bush, or do they risk the wrath of the base by supporting the rule of law, the role of the court. They make this decision at their peril. And neither direction will ultimately do them any favors. Base vs independents and rule abiding Republicans...either way-Bush has just made their futures more tenuous.
