Lest you think that we're kidding, the ink on the leaked draft opinion by the Supreme Court is still wet, and Republicans in office and running for office have taken to the airwaves over the past weekend to see who can be more extreme in the "pro-life Derby". The Mississippi Governor defends the law there that prohibits pregnancies that result from incest and won't rule out a ban on contraception next. Tennessee Senator Marsha Blackburn is proposing a ban on contraception except for married couples. And a candidate in Arizona goes one step beyond and is promoting a ban on all contraception as his Catholic faith demands. Why would they stop there? Does anyone really think that certain states in this country wouldn't again ban gay or interracial marriage given the chance? We are heading in a very dangerous direction in this country. We also discuss the scalding that Steve Schmidt gave to Meghan McCain this weekend.
