Newt Gingrich promised a gang of anti-abortion fanatics in South Carolina that on his very first day in office, he'll set up a showdown with the Supreme Court by ordering the military to defy court rulings on the extremely limited rights for "terrorism suspects/enemy combatants/terror war detainees," meaning no lawyers, no limits on torture, no releasing anybody, ever.
Gingrich also hinted that he would tear up Roe v. Wade, claiming the right to ignore court decisions that he decides are legally flawed- in effect appointing himself as a one-made Ultimate Court.
"If the court makes a fundamentally wrong decision, the president can in fact ignore it," said Gingrich, eliciting cheers from the abortion-haters.
This madman's worse than Bush, Reagan, Obama, and Nixon. And the corporate media is so pro-authoritarian now, that they treat this matter-of-factly, instead of raining a chorus of denunciation and outrage down on this would-be dictator's head.
