I’m a huge supporter of embryonic stem cell research, but the Governor’s quote is one of the most telling of his administration and how he views being a public official
“Anytime you do what is morally right … however you get there is immaterial,” he said.
Democracy is an end and a means and how you get there is pretty much everything in the long run.
(And I have no problem with the move–it’s just the quote stuck out like a giant sore thumb begging for a hammer).
In the same vein, the Trib quotes the governor today, “While we are forced to live in a democracy with several branches of government, sometimes the process is frustratingly slow.”
Who exactly is preventing the Gov from moving to the dictatorship of his choice?
