Hopefully, the Court will soon find a case to overturn Roe and declare that the Constitution supports life or at least returns the matter to the states.

He’s right. Everytime the Court tries they screw it up.
I love this guy!
I now support human cloning, if only to make eight more copies of the good Justice Scalia for the court. :)
The court doesn’t ‘find’ cases. Cases are brought to the court.

In fact he is right, legislators ought to write laws in accord with Natural Law.
“Hopefully, the Court will soon find a case to overturn Roe and declare that the Constitution supports life or at least returns the matter to the states.”
That depends in large part on who the next President is.
Justice Scalia makes a reference to one of FRs favorite sons!
lol, I second that :>
If Hillary gets to appoint the next person to the court, it will never turn over Roe v Wade.
This is the essence of conservative judicial philosophy. It does put a burden of balls on the legislative leg of government. Gee, maybe lawyers in black dresses are not the fount of American morality. What a concept!!
If we could have elected Fred Thompson we would likeley have two more justices just like AS, alas we could not.
If, the word that gets us nowhere.
If we only had a few more on the SCOTUS like him.
It is not over until is is over. The convention stands a clear chance of being deadlocked. Fred can rise again!!!
In a round about way they do "find" cases, there have been plenty of cases that dealt with abortion that the Court could have used to overturn Roe.
Justice Breyer: U.S. Constitution should be subordinated to international will.
My question is: Since Breyer has demonstrated an inability to hold to his oath, isn't he disqualified to continue holding his appointment?
"[W]hen a strict interpretation of the Constitution, according to the fixed rules which govern the interpretation of laws, is abandoned, and the theoretical opinions of individuals are allowed to control its meaning, we have no longer a Constitution; we are under the government of individual men, who for the time being have power to declare what the Constitution is, according to their own views of what it ought to mean."
