Durbin is killing me. He was all pro-life hosting pro-life events in IL UNTIL the dems decided they were pro-abortion and then he switched positions!!
Would be fabulous if Alito was able to bring that little fact up.
When did he switch positions?
DICK 'The Turbin' Durbin: "What troubles me and my open mind, is that you won't agree with me -- that abortion is a natural extension of the 14th amendment"
Think about how much though we have advanced the pro-life cause.
None of the Senators are arguing with Alito that abortion is the correct decision of the court. They are reduced to arguing that the current justices shouldn't change it because it's been around so long it has it's own life.
In other words, Stare Decisis is an argument which acknowledges the weakness of the original ruling.
