The "right to privacy" in sexual matters began with Griswold v. Connecticut, in which laws forbidding the sales of condoms were struck down.

There is, of course, nothing in the constitution to justify either of these decisions. If the people wanted condoms out front in every drugstore in the land, or in every college dorm bathroom, all they had to do was vote for it. But the liberals were in a hurry to get free sex, so they imposed it without going through the Democratic process. That also set the precedent for Roe v. Wade.

Thanks for the information - you know recently someone on the court has spoken of the international influence on our decisions/laws - I wonder where President Bush stands on that - as it will also impact "who" he sends up to the Senate -

I believe everyone should be concerned about this - in my opinion - This might really show who is global - and who isn't -
