Little jeremiah, do you still support a federal abortion ban in complete violation of the 10th amendment to the constitution? All powers not delegated to the federal government are reserved to the states and to the people. Once Roe v. Wade is reversed, the matter will be sent back to the states, and they can deal with it as they see fit. Most states will either outlaw it or place heavy restrictions on it. A few (New York, Massachusetts, and most of the northeast) will continue to allow it. That's what federalism is all about.

Supporting federal action on social issues is anathema to conservatism. Read your Constitution for once instead of just using it as a convenient reference for a talking point. If you want to ban things at the federal level without running afoul of the Constitution, you need to pass Constitutional amendments. Unless you're a liberal, that is.

Have you ever actually read the Constitution?

We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defence, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America.

I'll give you a hint, chief among the Blessings of Liberty is life for without it all other blessings are moot. The term posterity means those generations NOT YET BORN.

In his opinion in Roe, Blackmun even noted that if the unborn are persons then they have FULL Constitutional rights and abortion is unconstitutional.

Do YOU believe the unborn are persons? YES or NO.
