Your ill-willed insults aside, I agree with all you write in your last, and don't know what I said that you believe implies otherwise.

I apologize if I have mistaken you for someone who believes that Lincoln had the barest regard for the Constitution as supreme law of the land. If we agree that the Supremes overstepped their authority and that there is no federal law prohibiting the states from ignoring the ruling in Roe v. Wade and therefore no need for further federal law nor for an amendment to the Constitution, then I'm very surprised.

I thought you just asserted quite the opposite in answer to my observation that the states still have the power to absolutely prohibit abortion within their boundaries. I apologize for misreading you if you agree with me that the states are sovereign and have the power to legislate on this issue regardless of the opinion of the Supreme Court.
