Wonder if he was in Bammy’s law school class?

Knew a guy in his law school class who told me that Bam was a mediocre student but a great poker player. I translated that to mean he’s a very good liar.

This sort of ruling, if not overturned, will chase Christians physicians out of obstetrics.

This sort of ruling should result in unruly little judges being Arced. That is a new verb I made up from this story:

Does not have a good ring to it but it seems an appropriate action.

No matter how testicularly challenged, John Roberts is simply a traitor to the United States of America.

Unlike NY health care practitioners, at least most of the camp guards at Auschwitz were volunteers.

Oh, another female attorney general? Ten to one she's been financed by George Soros, just like Kim Gardner of Ferguson infamy, Kim Fox in Chicago, not to mention several others.

Well, Stalin had a stroke and none of his doctors wanted to touch him; he died shortly afterwards.

What is with these federal freaks? Police state Gestapo agents, wicked judges and prosecutors. The problem is that you can’t vote any of these villains out. If they were at least at the State level, the people would have a better chance.

Well if they can’t be voted out or fired, the people will figure out a more just and permanent solution for the problem.

Let’s see anyone prosecute someone for refusing to perform an abortion... Not going to happen.

Does this mean they can force a psychiatrist to do an abortion?

It seems oxymoronic that one would have to be competent and licensed to kill an innocent pre-born baby.

This would only appear to apply to OBs. So I would think that this would violate 14th amendment equal protection under the law. Because then, wouldnt they be obligated to compel those with no training in obstetrical procedures to do abortions?

this could be big if allowed to stand.

Fifty years ago, one of my professos failed me at OB/GYN for refusing to do abortions, and what saved me was the Civil rights law of 1964, which said you couldn’t discriminate against employees for race, religion or gender.

guess this judge didn’t read that law.

Contact Senators on the Senate Judiciary Committee, the Republican ones, Ted Cruz, Marsha Blackburn, John Cornyn, Thom Tillis, Josh Hawley and tell them to do something about rulings like this that are unconstitutional. There must be pressure put on these committees to do something to reign in these federal judges.

Kill that baby or lose your job. Kill that senior citizen or lose your job.

When need a POTUS that says “basta” (”enough”) to judges who have given themselves the authority no one else gave them - to make federal policy as THEY want it.

Since when does every federal policy NOT mean benefit to someone and everything from lack of benefit to harm (disadvantage) to someone else. Government policies always have winners and losers.

Therefor when did “harm” (to someone) become a standard that by the law disqualifies a federal policy? The answer is that standard has been introduced when judges starting to decide, for themselves, that THEY, not the elected government, gets to pick the winners and losers in any federal policy contest.

When need a POTUS that says “basta” to this nonsense.

You want different federal policies? Then elect who you want to be directing those policies, but barring that outcome, you don’t get to unmake policies you don’t like by judicial decree.
