A Step In The Right Direction

The U.S. Senate passed a bill today that -- if it becomes law -- would strengthen the parental notification laws. This is a victory for pro-life groups and the Bush administration. It will be interesting to see if the house version and the senate version can be reconciled. The senate version has more teeth and hopefully it won't get watered down in committee. President Bush is anxious to sign this legislation.

After I wrote this post I noticed another article that I wanted to bring to your attention about the "religious left". Is this anything new? Will the religious left have any influence on the 2006 and 2008 elections? Personally, I doubt it.
