"The court's decision, however, alarmed abortion-rights activists, some of whom had initially regarded McCorvey's request as little more than a frivolous publicity stunt.

[Crazieman]

Stabbed in the back by their own darling.

The 5th Circuit is one where the argument may stand a slight chance (but not much of one). 9th would probably be a predetermined failure, I don't know about the others.

The worms will not fit back in the can, the barn door is open, it is too late in the game.

[He Rides A White Horse]

it is too late in the game.

It's never too late when you are on the right side of an issue.

Slavery took hundreds of years to overturn in this country, but it happened eventually.

Why?

Because good men and women didn't give up.

[Jeff Gordon]

This woman must be taking her cues from John Kerry. Flip-flopping has become a new fad.

[Judith Anne]

I'm glad she changed her mind about abortion, and is now on the side of the unborn. I wouldn't call it flip-flopping, at all.

[Paleo Conservative]

it is too late in the game.

"It's never too late when you are on the right side of an issue."

It's a tough Roe to hoe.

[boomop1]

It is a judge thing, sad to say.

[Jeff Gordon]

Just because she switched to a more moral, honest position does not mean that she did not flip-flop.

[Judith Anne]

Oh, float off.

[He Rides A White Horse]

Time has a way of sorting out truth from lies.

I guarantee you that a day is going to come when these pro-abortion types will be looked at as savages.

[He Rides A White Horse]

......because they are.

[He Rides A White Horse]

This woman must be taking her cues from John Kerry. Flip-flopping has become a new fad.

Flip-flopping as in Kerry entails a flip-flop because it benefits John Kerry.

Others change views because it is the right thing to do.

There's a big difference.

[Tanniker Smith]

Good luck. Outright overturning their earlier decision?
Not likely to happen. Particularly not with this squeamish bunch. Public policy of 30 years and all that stuff. If it makes it too the Supremes, it'll be 6-3 to keep Roe -- that's my guess. I don't think it'll go 5-4.

TS
...

[afuturegovernor]

Agreed. The 5th Circuit is one of the more conservative ones.

[johnmorris886]

Public policy of 30 years and all that stuff.

Interesting though that the SCOTUS overturned 214 years of precedent and overruled a case that they themselves had just decided only 17 years prior in order to further the agenda of the sodomite perverts.

[Grig]

Oh what's the big deal? If RvW gets tossed, just how many states will actually ban abortion? Utah is the only sure bet I can think of.

[Jeff Gordon]

Flip-flopping as in Kerry entails a flip-flop because it benefits John Kerry.

I see. Being pro-abortion when she wanted to be rid of her mistake and then becoming anti-abortion after menopause does not benefit Ms Roe.

it is the right thing to do

Being at the root cause of untold millions of deaths for thirty years then saying "Oops, sorry" is the right thing to do? Saddam Husein should be so lucky.

[Jeff Gordon]

Oh, float off.

I eat a very low fat diet. No fat, no float. Sorry.
