A Captain Kangaroo Court as one of the articles said.
I can’t believe it but Reagan really did poorly picking Kennedy. Almost 30 years later and Kennedy is still screwing us.
[ I Would really support a secession movement. ]
We would need to couch the PR for it by citing sucessfull exampels such as Chzech and Slovakia breakup and not the north and south of 150 years ago....
Maybe he had to get it through a Democratic House, remember, Reagan wanted Bork but couldn’t get him through. I think the Anthony Kennedy article at wikipedia says that once that guy, Ginsburg I think was his name, Alan, stepped down because he’d smoked pot, then Kennedy was selected.
It confounds me why this is in Federal Court in the first place when it is a state issue, other than Federal judges seem eager to jump in. Seems to me that that is an area Congress could fix (i.e., federal jurisdicition boundaries).
Keep in mind that this law/rule didn’t stop abortions entirely but rather set out
criteria for which the providers must meet. When this started out there were some
40+ providers in Texas and had been reduced down to 18. The 18 would have been reduced
‘to 10 under the restrictions as placed upon the roviders.
snip....
The case concerns two parts of a state law that imposes strict requirements on abortion
providers. One requires all abortion clinics in the state to meet the standards for
“ambulatory surgical centers,” including regulations concerning buildings, equipment
and staffing. The other requires doctors performing abortions to have admitting
privileges at a nearby hospital.
Other parts of the law took effect in 2013, causing about half of the state’s 41 abortion
clinics to close. If the contested provisions take effect, abortion rights advocates said, the number of clinics will again be halved.

So, why does Justice Roberts continue to vote conservatively on all cases except for Obamacare? What does that tell us?
Ginsburg looks asleep AGAIN.
What a frigging joke this court is.
Two were put there by Obama to do Obama;s bidding, and what is the betting he talks to them over the phone
He’s being blackmailed
“The law, which was to go into effect Wednesday, requires clinics to adhere to strict, hospital-like facilities requirements. Just nine of the approximately 20 clinics in the state would have met that requirement, abortion rights groups have said”
So whose fault is that?
Planned (destruction of) Parenthood makes billions off of this crap. If they value this “right” so much then they could have fronted you the cash to be ready.
If some state would leave, we'd move there - tomorrow.
My wife just said the same. I’d go to SC or another state down here if they left.
A state which just re-elected Lindsay Graham is not going anyplace.
The right of a woman to murder her unborn children is the ONLY right that liberals hold to be absolute.
That was Douglas Ginsburg—admitted to smoking pot when young, and withdrew his name.
Now it is a badge of honor and resume enhancer.
Man oh man...where the hell has states rights gone?
Though “conservative” is fairly loosely defined, any governor who doesn’t nullify these 3 rulings, take a stand, and start a fight if need be, is not a conservative. Conservatives believe their position is right despite what anyone thinks. They believe the founding was fundamentally good and God’s laws are universal and timeless. All other avenues of protecting what’s right have been exhausted. There’s only fighting or capitulating. If you’re willing to capitulate at this point, you never really were a conservative. You were a pragmatist with conservative leanings.
Preliminary order, not yet a final determination of Constitutionality ... although I think we all know where that will end up
...
Yep. The government now makes up the law as it goes along.
WORST Supeme Court ever.
