Nothing has codified abortion in federal law.

Wrong. The "Lacey Peterson" law of 2005, passed by a "pro-life" "Republican" Congress, and signed by "pro-life" "Republican" George W. Bush, grants explicit permission for abortionists to kill babies, all of them.

And the Federal Kidnapping Act grants explicit permission for kidnappers to kidnap, as long as they make it clear they are not crossing state lines.

(I can make false statements, too.)

No, it didn’t, it merely said that that particular law didn’t apply to women getting abortions in clinics. As anyone with even a passing knowledge of the law knows, the fact that Law A does not apply to a particular act does not mean that such act cannot be proscribed by Law B or Law C or Law D. Exclusion of certain acts from coverage by a particular law does not create a “safe harbor” for the commission of such acts. Just about every federal law has limitations, exceptions and exclusions, and it is idiotic to read them as “legalizing” the acts that such law does not cover.

Had William Wilberforce been as stubborn and stupid as you, slavery would have lasted untilthe 20th century.
