Justice Kennedy to retire

Post by _Bach »

Uh oh! Could be a 6-3 pro life court soon. And it will definitely neuter the 9th circuit.

Feel free to list all the 5-4 decisions in which Kennedy sided with the Left.

But I think you're right. We should make abortion illegal so we can take 10 steps backwards as a country and be more like Brazil, Venezuela, Congo, Ethiopia, Afghanistan, Bangladesh, Iraq, Madagascar, etc. Just one more notch to add to the Trump legacy of degenerating American.

I also love your tacit admission that Trump picks judges who follow him, and not the Constitution. Yeah, we knew that already. The Right has no principles.

It will be a 5-4 majority either mostly or entirely overturning Roe. But math is hard, I suppose.

Anti-abortion, pro-business, anti-safety net, pro-Russian, pro-totalitarian, pro-Trump, pro-limiting civil right, anti-same sex marriage, anti-Miranda warning, pro-partisan hacks.

You don't know how to math entrepreneurially.

On the other hand, threatening abortion rights just may be the thing to energize the Left into a voting frenzy.

It is interesting that evangelicals are such right to life supporters and yet in their Bible in the Old Testament Joshua was commanded to kill everyone in city except the virgins. "15 “Have you allowed all the women to live?” he asked them. 16 “They were the ones who followed Balaam’s advice and enticed the Israelites to be unfaithful to the Lord in the Peor incident, so that a plague struck the Lord’s people. 17 Now kill all the boys. And kill every woman who has slept with a man, 18 but save for yourselves every girl who has never slept with a man." Numbers 31. Some of those women would have been pregnant.

What’s even more interesting is liberals outrage over illegal children’s life at the border and separation from the mother. They are outraged, at least for the camera! But when the border is the uterus - the same child’s life means absolutely nothing to these same liberals.

And no one can respond to that reality! Great back bone here.
