Past their prime...

Thanks, Griff.
I didn't realize what I was saw was just a replay of a Christie stump speech.
I guess I should have known.

In any case, his speech reflected my distaste of "pro-life" advocates
who seem concerned only about the 9-months of prior to birth,
and then afterwards ... not so much.

What I saw were two short videos, the first was almost a replica of this stump speech.
The second was a much more personal account of a friend of Christie
who became hooked on Rx pain pills after a jogging incident.

It was this segment that touched me, because Christie seemed to be genuinely promoting
lifelong "pro-life" support for treatment of mental mental illness, drug addiction, and rehabilitation, etc.

So I'll cynically add:

Maybe this theme will spread to others in the GOP

Isn't it remarkable how so often politicians are strong political conservatives,
until something happens within their own circle of family or friends.
...and then they suddenly change their political position on that particular issue.

Interesting that the moment we noticed Christie actually being reflective he gets demoted to the Lilliputian debate.
