Other than the right to live, what other unalienable rights would you like “the states to be able to decide”?

The right to keep and bear arms?

Free speech?

Freedom of the press?

The right to peaceably assemble?

The right to petition government for redress of grievances?

The right to a jury trial?

Parental rights?

What?

These are rights gauranteed be the constitution.

The 10 amendment states (paraphrasing) that those rights not specifically grated by the constitution are left to the states.

Abortion is not a right granted by the constitution and therefore is an issue for states to decide.

Sarah Palin is correct.
