nowhere in the constitution is the federal government given the power to regulate abortions.

Nowhere in the constitution is the federal government given the power to tell one citizen they can arbitrarily murder another citizen and call it a "right."

therefore by default it is a states rights issue.....defund it

No, its a human rights issue. Both the federal and state governments have a duty and obligation to defend and protect innocent human life. Therefore, innocent human life should be protected at both the federal and the state level.

Agreed. There is nothing more fundamental than the protection of human life. Making it a states' rights issue makes no sense at all, unless we don't believe that human life is of much value.
