You have to wonder if some of this crowd isn’t worried about having to look for real jobs.

The Supreme Court decision was a major victory for those who favor right to life (as opposed to those who have made a career of right to life.)

Unfortunately, you've got it backwards. If you look closely, you'll find that it is the people you describe who are the ones touting this ruling as the panacea it isn't, and remaining silent on the dangerous aspects it represents.

The ones who are speaking out about this are heroes...those who stand with Scalia and Thomas. The silent ones, or the ones who are acting like this will stop a single abortion, are allied with Kennedy and Roberts and the Alito.

Keyes:

“After reading the text of the decision, my heart sank at the thought that all four of the supposedly pro-life appointees to the Court had voted to accept its lethal implication. Then I saw the saving grace of Justice Thomas’s brief but clarion concurring opinion, in which he stated simply that although he voted for the decision’s result, he continues to reject the Roe/Casey regime it relies upon, in the conviction that “the Court’s abortion jurisprudence, including Casey and Roe v. Wade, . . . has no basis in the Constitution.” Justice Scalia joined in this morally and constitutionally essential declaration.

But these two stood alone. Chief Justice Roberts and Justice Alito, the two G. W. Bush appointees who supposedly offer hope for an eventual return to constitutional sanity, were silent. They let the Gardener of Evil speak for them, with the clear and tragic implication that they concur in his mad, immoral effort to make Gonzales v. Carhart the exception that firmly proves and establishes the murderous rule of so-called abortion rights.”

Actually we are all volunteers and the people opposing this letter are part of the pro-life industry.
