"Also, with some exceptions, this has been a fairly conservative court for the past generation."
Yeah. Except for the removal of all Christian symbols from most "public" places (and most prayer, in most places, or anything that smacks even slightly of Christianity); and the entrenchment of reverse-racism quotas, the siezure of your house to put up a knicknack store, and the endorsement of sodomy between two consenters...we're really kicking ass, aren't we?
Not kicking ass - no. This has been a conservative court. Conservatives believe in precedent, and this court inherited liberal gobs of it. Criminal law and proceedure, especially search and seizure, have been completely reformed - AND THIS HAS BEEN AN EVERY DAY BIG DEAL.
If Bush appoints every conservative YOU want, Roe will be limited, but not overruled.
Have you ever read Roe? It's as bad as you think.
