With the latest decision on gun ownership based on party lines instead of the Constitution concerns about the right to an abortion being overturned. Have you ever considered how Congress will word a law prohibiting abortion?
The woman who was the claimant in the Roe vs Wade did not have an abortion. The court's decision came to late for her.
The court decided a woman has a "constitutional right" to an abortion for any reason during the first trimester, a "constitutional right" to an abortion for health of the mother during the second trimester and NO "constitutional right" to an abortion for any reason during the last trimester. As you can see it is not a Constitutional issue.
The courts have "made laws" instead of interpreting the Constitution. As you can see by the resulting court decisions it is not a constitutional issue making it a state issue not federal. If Congress ever writes a law imagine how miscarriages will be treated. The ex-mother-to-be could be liable for manslaughter or depraved indifference.
30 years ago, Ohio, approved a law to keep vehicles with wheels larger than a pre-define circumfrance off the sidewalks. The result was kindergarten age kids had to ride their big-wheels in the streets. We have to keep congress out of trying to make decisions. They are not mentally fit for the challenge.
Barack has Rev Wright and Hillary has Bill. Must be frustrating.
