This shows once again that the rats are a very selfish and phoney bunch of people.

it is the pretend place in the Constitution where those seeking additional rights, not enumerated, go to find them.

Funny. All of this intimate detail, but no mention of Justice Blackman's grandchild. Was he/she loved and cherished, or considered a burden in the pursuit of a career? I wonder what became of the child.

Instead of deciding the constitutionality of the ruling, he consulted his wife and daughters and made up his mind based on what would be good for women.

In other words, he simply ruled based on what he would have written into the Constitution if he had written it.

Dont ask about the child. It's life was something the young lady was not "very proud of". She carries on a lifetime of work trying to stifle that tiny bit of conscience that nags her everyday. The lady knows full well she will never repent in public for her mistakes or the fact that her Father was a failure.

From Post # 1:

Three weeks after a quiet wedding, she had a miscarriage.

Love for a woman's exclusive right to murder the unborn alive humans appears to run in the Blackmun family. ... And the ghouls are proud of it! "I was very pleased with the decision and the fact that it gave women that right of choice," she told WomensEnews. "Dad always felt that it was the right thing to do and the necessary thing to do toward the full emancipation of women in this country. So we certainly were in favour of what he did."

It's a technical term in physics. It the part of a shadow that is not the deep part of the shadow, but between the "dark" shadow and the unshaded part.

In law, it's a code word for "I'm gonna make some law here, even though my job is to interpret law."

IOW, "Dad" legislated from the bench, based on his "feelings" and the "feelings" of his wife and daughter, not on the Constitution and the laws of the US ... and Sally is proud of what he did.

If I have a choice between sharing a cell in hell with Hitler or Harry Blackmun, I'd rather stay with Uncle Adolf. He was, at least, honest about being a tyrannical mass murderer.

Blackmun and her ilk are the very sort of individuals who will bring cannibalism of the unborn into our society under the guise of enlightened medical application. The aliveness of the pre-born is a subjective thing to these ghoulish frauds. If the little ones are of utilitarian value, slaughter them at will and treat the sick. Don't believe it?... The expedience of hiring serial killers to slaughter alive unborn children has proven the these bastards to be soulless and selfish, in the main. The dehumanization of the unborn has brought this nation down, we just haven't realized it yet. And individuals like Blackmun and her ilk want to degenerate the society further, for the expedience of it all, to avoid responsibilities and cannibalize the youngest humans. Given their way, my granddaughter's world will have fetus farms of cloned 'tissue masses' for harvesting to treat ailments and reduce the wear of aging.
