>>>>>>>Hey, let’s get down to brass tacks, shall we? Where do YOU stand, right now? That’s what I would like to know.

STILL indignant and self righteous I see. As though you need to ask.

Roe v Wade should be overturned. Abortion on demand should be abolished forever. A personhood amendment should be added to the Constitution. IMO, life begins at conception. happy?

I do agree with Reagan on the one exception for abortion. This comes from one of your news snippets:

“Just as today we recognize the right of self defense, the right of a person to take a human life in self defense, I had to conclude I could agree to the right of a mother to lake the life of her own unborn child in defense of her own life,”.

If you don't like my position, too bad.

Cong West's position is the same position that millions of pro-lifers take. You don't agree with the three exception rule, he does. Right now, Roe v Wade is the law of the land. Is RvW unConstitutional? IMO, yes.

No, it's not. That's a destructive myth. A common one, but a myth nonetheless. Courts don't make law. They decide individual cases, based first on the Constitution, and secondly on the laws made by our representatives in the legislative branch.

Can you point me to where you think the judiciary is granted legislative authority in our Constitution?

I just asked you a couple of simple basic questions. Your knee is jerking harder today than I've ever seen it jerk.

Article I

Section 1.

All legislative powers herein granted shall be vested in a Congress of the United States, which shall consist of a Senate and House of Representatives.

-- The U.S. Constitution


Does ALL mean ALL or not?

There's no constitutional authority for the courts to veto legislation, either. That's only granted to the Executive.

And they also have NOTHING to do with amending the Constitution.
