Yes, btw, I think we do need a Constitutional amendment to overturn R.v.W. That should put a stake in its black heart. Remember at the time of R.v.W. abortion was legal in at least two states. The authors of RvW possessed the kind of tinkering busybody mentality that leads to things like the European Constitution.

I have often wondered why the Judiciary can't at the request of lets say the legislative and or executive branch be asked to re examine a ruling. This would eliminate the need for way too many amendments to correct rulings that had no Constitutional basis. Also, if a ruling ignores precedent for the sake of activism would it or would it not be in violation of S.D?
