In
language that would not dismay Todd Akin, GOP sages call for a constitutional
amendment outlawing abortion with no exceptions for rape or incest.
“Faithful
to the ‘self-evident’ truths enshrined in the Declaration of Independence, we
assert the sanctity of human life and affirm that the unborn child has a
fundamental individual right to life which cannot be infringed. We support a
human life amendment to the Constitution and endorse legislation to make clear
that the Fourteenth Amendment’s protections apply to unborn children.”
The
only threat to Republican unanimity may come from a Higher Power as the Weather
Service reports a tropical storm that could become a hurricane by Thursday,
reach Cuba Sunday and affect the Tampa conclave by opening day on Monday.
The
storm, suitably enough, would be named Isaac, a biblical figure associated with
human sacrifice.
