Roe v. Wade won't change. It had and has major political support. There is no way President Bush will let that fight start again. Trying to start it up will lose and the losers will suffer, just as Kerry did for bringing the Vietnam War back up as an issue. Try to win it all and you'll lose it all.
But it is possible to keep things like Roe v. Wade from happening again. Given the existing federal bench, that means leadership, and leaders don't get much better than Guliani.
Yes it will, incrementally as a reconstituted court permits states to place regulations, rollbacks and restrictions on abortions within their borders.
"We" being defined as the people that believe it is wrong for the fedgov to prohibit states from outlawing people paying money to murder unborn babies.
You know, people that actually have some decency.
You apparently did'nt read or comprehend my post. Roe v. Wade was bad law. Only the court can reverse it. A strict constructionist position would have the contract killing of the unborn regulated or permitted by individual states. Common criminal law is not a federal matter.
No need to fight the battle politically. Just get enough people on the court to reverse bad law. Dred Scott was reversed, Plessy v. Ferguson was reversed, etc., etc.
Concur, and the other things I want to see are,
1. SCOTUS forced to take the Emerson RKBA/VAWA case, and
2. Overturning the Lawrence sodomy imbecility, Presser vs. Illinois, and Miller. And if they really want to pull the stinkweeds out by the roots, they need to revisit Cruikshank on the subject of what a "right" is under the Bill of Rights.
