2. What he's trying to prove ...

Judges are immoral and need the executive branch of government to call them to account, thus nullifying their power and removing the check the provide in our system of government.

In short, he doesn't care about Terri. He cares about power.

5. OK, now listen:
When Richard Mellon Scaife wants you to jump, you jump. If you are a Republican in power, that is.
Money talks. Power talks. Money corrupts. Power corrupts. Absolute power corrupts absolutely.
