Wow! This one comes back from a long time ago...

The word "abortion" is not in the Constitution, but the Constitution is dependent upon an affirmation of the "right to life." The right to life is a federal issue and always has been, whatever courts have said. Government that does not grant the People's declared right to life clearly denies all other rights to those killed.

We're in total agreement. It was my point, however, that Roe v. Wade turned the Constitution on it's head, and if we're ever to return to government under the Constitution as intended we need to take some affirmative action to correct the error.

As horrendous and immoral and absolutely evil as the deaths attributed to Roe v. Wade are, the assault upon our Constitutional government by that decision is just as horrendous and immoral and absolutely evil.

It's all from the same filthy cloth, eh?. And about another subject, from what I see in the 14th Amendment, I was defending it from an activist interpretation by a l/Libertarian, yesterday.

One correction of what I just wrote: fm. "grant the People's" to "uphold the People's."
