I'm not demanding adherence to any agenda. If you really believe that, then specify the agenda to which you think I'm demanding adherence.

The agenda to defeat Roe v Wade...the same agenda I have. I, however, am willing to accept that political realities dictate the size of any step you can take without falling down.

Believe it or not, I do not consider Roe v. Wade to be the be-all, end-all of constitutional jurisprudence. I would like to see that particular abomination overturned, but not at the cost of even worse usurpations by the judiciary. Adherence to the actual text of the Constitution, and thereafter to the principle of consistency in law (not "stare decisis", but rather a consistency in the meaning of words, so that the law can be known in a certain way by those who must follow it).
