Boy the Republicans are mad the truth came out.

[Dagosa]

Only fascists I've seen in the past five years or so are mainstream democrats.

Really ? You must not cavort with anyone who speaks English correctly. Fascist are right wingers…according to every dictionary not associated with Fix News.

You accept lots of things never offered. Basically, you’re dishonest. No news there.

You choose to go with a persona attack instead of an answer.

That is the same thing as surrendering.

It is the last resort for those who do not know what they are talking about

The way the process works is, they study the case and decide which way they will "vote" in the decision. In this case, they came out 6-3. At that point the Chief Justice assigns one of the "6" to draft the opinion. When the draft is complete it is circulated among all the justices, then feedback comes in, it's re-written a few times, but the final tally generally does not change.

Anyone seeing this development and attributing it to "radical right-wingers" on the court is an idiot. RvW was a horrible decision - possibly the worst in the past 50 years. It is based on nothing, and takes a horrific leap into policy-making, which the Court has no right or power to do. It has NOTHING TO DO with abortion, or public policy on abortion. That aspect is left to the state legislatures, where it belongs.

The reason why Leftists in Congress have been so fixated on RvW when interviewing Republican nominees is because they have KNOWN ALL ALONG what a horrible decision it was, and how easily it could be overturned, given the right case.

Unfortunately for the public dialog, Democrats are too stupid to separate the Constitutional issue from the public policy issue. And of course there has never been sufficient support for the Leftists position on abortion to do anything legislatively. Which is why they constantly lie about polls showing that the public supports them. Liars.

Well, there's a problem in the US Constitution, which is the 9th Amendment.

It basically says there are other rights, not just the ones in the Bill of Rights. It says such rights shall not be denied (making the assumption this is by the US federal government because that's what the Constitution deals with).


Who decides what things are rights and what aren't?

The opinions of the supreme court on abortion.

They really didn't want this to come out right now.

It isn't republicans I see in a rage over it.

[OKTexas]

Or perhaps the leaker wanted to soften the blow when the actual ruling comes out so they leaked it to let people get used to the idea

Well they committed at least two federal felonies to do it. Hope they enjoy being disbarred and very possibly prison.

What felonies are those?

 

[Man of Ethics]

I make no prediction of how it will affect the elections. In a few weeks, we will have polls to judge by.

 

[OKTexas]

Impeaching those unfaithful justices if they go through with it, will be enough, we don't need to jail them.

Did you mean the guy who leaked the draft? What law did he break again? Some long held tradition?

Theft of government property, unlawful dissemination of confidential material. The FBI can determine exactly who did the deed, because the supreme court runs on an air gapped intranet. The draft had to be downloaded by someone with access.

[Calypso Jones]

I HARDLY think the SC would have zoomed a conference call with repunklicans on the abortion issue. It came out of left field to me. Hell.. I STILL don't believe they'll actually overturn it. The left is blaming republicans and the magacrowd. It's NOT US. It's the Supreme court and DC. Come on bac y'all pro baby killin' lefties to DC and burn that muthah down like Treyvohn's uncle sayd.

No,you drip. I answer intelligent and relevant questions. Someday, you might ask one. Admitting that you’ve got nothing will be your first step on a path all the way to becoming almost mediocre! Dream the dream, goofy.

 

[OKTexas]

That was true, not sure it will be after states starting outlawing it.

Do you seriously think that would happen before the elections?

I just looked up Fascism in the Merriam-Webster online dictionary. They do not mention "Right-wing".
Definition of FASCISM

yes. there are 23 states that still have anti-abortion laws on the books or laws set to trigger as soon as the SOCTUS might rule on abortion.

Abortion is way down on the list of the concerns of voters. It's the economy stupid.

True, forgot about 1/6, Putin-love and the economy on the upswing.

 

[22lcidw]

They lost that when they did nothing about the stolen election.

Roberts on Obamacare did not help.

Wasn’t Trump supposed to ”repeal and replace“ that? It was going to be easy, right? Had the House, Senate and WH! What happened?
