    If we ever have a group of mothers in this country who would have aborted if it were legal, we should make a note to poll them, some years down the line, about whether they wish they'd been able to abort. I guess you could also ask the kid, but that wouldn't be fair.

      OK, so his 'bold response' is to order a report that tell him how to do this. End of quote. Repeat this line.

        It's horseshit and mirrors. Much of the actual stuff concerns PHI and making sure the government keeps close watch on sale of information such as names, addresses, etc.

                    Here’s Jon Stewart and a group of True Believers opining on the ruling.

                    Link to video

                    Basically it’s projection about the court having an ideology and working towards a ruling from there. No reflection that that might be what Roe V Wade was.

                            OK, so, let's assume that congress passes a law codifying the "right" to abortion.

                            Would the current 6-3 character of the court overturn that law? My guess is that they wouldn't.

                              There's a fine line between writing and interpreting.
                              I would think that how a law is interpreted by the SCOTUS would be thought by some to almost amount to writing it, or rewriting it.

                                  I don’t think you’ll find anywhere in the Roe overturn ruling, any reasoning that could be used to overturn a new law guaranteeing access to abortions.

                                    I imagine the two sides of the court as lawyers arguing cases for their client. Each side of the culture war is a client. Their lawyers on the Supreme Court fashion their constitutional case as well as they can, but the assumption going into it is that they know who their client is, and therefore which side they’re arguing.

                                    Once in a while judges use their prerogative to switch sides on a case, but with cases where progressives want new law to support their ideology, which is what Roe always was, I suspect the divisions will be exactly as predicted.

                                        The Roe overturn shouldn’t have anything to do with it. Texas has already established that pre-born have the same rights as anybody… Full props to this lady,

                                          I took care of a pregnant woman who was shot in the uterus. Fetus died, she survived.

                                          Perp charged with the death of the fetus. I don't remember the outcome of the charges.

                                          The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.
