No, conservative justices didn’t lie about Roe at their confirmation hearings

The left simply lost the intellectual and political fight over the direction of the Supreme Court but can’t bear to admit it.

Progressives tell themselves instead that they’ve been undone by a series of dirty deeds, including the alleged deceit of conservative justices who lied to the US Senate about their commitment to preserving Roe v. Wade.

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez believes that impeachment proceedings should be in play.
...............

It is true that in his hearings Kavanaugh leaned heavily on the notion that Roe was precedent and that it had been reaffirmed in Casey, so it was “precedent upon precedent.” Yet other Roe supporters didn’t mistake his meaning. As Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse (D-RI) told Kavanaugh during the hearings, “Your own words make clear you do not really believe Roe v. Wade is settled law since the court, as you said, ‘can always overrule its precedent.’”

In her dramatic floor statement supporting Kavanaugh’s nomination, Collins made it clear that she also understood that his commitment to precedent was not absolute. It would give way, she explained, “in those rare circumstances where a decision is ‘grievously wrong’ or ‘deeply inconsistent with the law.’”

The court held in Dobbs that Roe was, indeed, egregiously wrong. Collins might be disappointed, but she shouldn’t feel ill-used.

Roe never deserved to be written into law in the first place. The conservative justices never said they would preserve it, and it would have been an egregious breach of their duty if they had.

Why I don’t think much will change surrounding abortion after Roe v. Wade reversal

Saying this won’t be very popular, but I think what may surprise people in the coming months is how little will change surrounding abortion.

Blue states aren’t going to be restricting abortion at all, and their governors say they intend to use taxpayer dollars to cover the costs for women traveling from other states to get an abortion. Fourteen states have “trigger laws” that have already banned or will soon ban all or most abortions — Alabama, Arkansas, Idaho, Kentucky, Louisiana, Mississippi, Missouri, Oklahoma, North Dakota, South Dakota, Utah, Tennessee, Texas and Wyoming. (Wisconsin has a ban that its Democratic governor says will not be enforced.)

In most of those states, abortion clinics were already few and far between. The abortion rate in places such as Alabama (6.3 per 1,000 women) and Arkansas (5.1) is significantly lower than the rate in places such as the District of Columbia (23.9) and New York (20.3).

Bans are going into effect where the fewest abortions occur already — meaning the national abortion rate may not decline all that much in the coming years.

......................

There will be an effort to enact federal legislation, but it is difficult to see either pro-lifers or pro-choice forces attaining the necessary legislative majorities to do so. Assuming this year’s midterms shake out as expected, the US will have divided government until at least January 20, 2025, and abortion legislation from one side would face a filibuster from the other. Lawmakers would need not merely legislative majorities in both houses and control of the presidency, but majorities who think imposing policy changes on resistant states is a good idea.

If you think America’s current tensions are bad, envision a pro-life Republican Congress attempting to ban abortion in New York, or a pro-choice Democratic Congress attempting to require legal taxpayer-funded abortion throughout the South.

Why Women Abort

1.14% are done to save the life or physical health of the mother.
1.28% to preserve the mental health of the mother.
0.39% in cases of rape or incest.
0.69% for fetal birth defects, or eugenics.
3.50% for all the hard cases combined.

96.50% of all abortions are therefore performed for social or economic reasons.

So keep abortion legal and address the social and economic reasons.

The same thing could be said about homelessness or drugs, but here in TN instead of trying to figure out ways to help the homeless, we make camping on state property a felony.

How about we let the voters of each state decide and address the social and economic reasons. Democrats are uninterested in the social and economic reasons a majority of black women abort their babies, that a majority of black women have babies with no father present, that a majority of black women have babies at a very young age. They like the idea of fewer blacks in the world and making them uneducated, dependent wards of the state. That's been the goal all along for the Democratic Party.

The social and economic problems in this country have been exacerbated by Democratic, leftist policies that destroy the family unit, attack religious beliefs, support indoctrination in our schools rather than education and wish to force as many Americans as possible into Government dependency.

Democrats are uninterested in helping the homeless. The primary cause of homelessness are mental illness and drugs. Democrats think it's fine having urine and excrement filled parks full of homeless tents.

Democrats are the reason the mentally ill are out on our streets. Democrats want to legalize the drugs and hand out needles and drugs thus creating a never ending cycle to the bottom.

Democrat policy failures are evident in every major city they have been running for decades. Democrats are part of the problem. Yet fools who believe they are smarter than everyone else, still vote for these fascistic morons as if saying you care is a solution.

In the UK, 90% of all abortions are chemically induced in the first trimester. In the US the figure is 55%.
 
No, conservative justices didn’t lie about Roe at their confirmation hearings

No Supreme Court nominee has ever testified a previous decision was not settled law. All decisions are settled law until they are overturned--school segregation, same sex marriage, adult consensual sexual relations, minimum wage for women, illegal search and seizure, appointing attorneys for indigent defendants--about 230+ opinions have been overturned.

Once again you illustrate what an uneducated, stupid little man you are. Try focusing on the topic once in your miserable life. :palm:

In other words, you can find nothing false in my post but just needed to insult someone this morning; even though the post agreed with your point

This is stunning.
The murder of unborn babies is done for social or economic reasons.

UNBELIEVABLE!
 

Settled law has been overturned dozens of times.

None of the Trump nominees said they would not vote to overturn precedents.

They overturned an UN-constitutional decision by a previous court.

Separate but equal, slavery...all precedents that were overturned.

Projection
Projection is the process of displacing one’s feelings onto a different person, animal, or object. The term is most commonly used to describe defensive projection—attributing one’s own unacceptable urges to another. For example, if someone continuously bullies and ridicules a peer about his insecurities, the bully might be projecting his own struggle with self-esteem onto the other person.


There are many reasons why someone might lack self-awareness. It could be due to a mental health condition, such as schizophrenia or borderline personality disorder. It could be caused by drug abuse or alcoholism. It could be a result of trauma or a difficult upbringing. Or it could simply be that someone has never been taught how to develop self-awareness.
