the British medical system seems to think that it has the right toke make all the decisions for a sick person.

Roe vs. Wade was supposedly decided on the basis of a patient being able to make their own healthcare decisions. But now the U.S. seems to be abandoning the underlying rationale.

RvW was also derived from an implied “right to privacy” in the Constitution. However subsequent court decisions on privacy seem to make our privacy rights curiously narrow. Somehow I doubt the left wing of the Court will have the intellectual consistency to rethink their support of RvW in light of their more recent opinions.

Hell, the ‘question’ of a gestating human in the womb = baby isn’t dared asked...(D), the party of ‘science’, my @ss.
