Abortion

The 1973 Supreme Court Rowe v Wade decision was 7 to 2 with Byron White and William Rehnquist in decent. Warren Burger Harry Blackmun, William Brennan, William Douglas, Thurgood Marshall, Lewis Powell and Potter Stewart voted for the legalization of abortion.

Texas law making it a crime to assist a woman to get an abortion violated her due process rights. U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Texas affirmed in part, reversed in part.

Their excuse was that Congress had not defined when “Life” begins. For the past 45 years, Congress has refused to bring it up and vote on a Bill and 60 million babies have been slaughtered, because they were “unwanted”.

If they had been presiding over the Nuremberg Trial, the Nazis would have been declared not guilty, because German law did not consider Jews and many others to be human and killing non-humans would not be murder.

Now we are told that we have to bring in 60 million welfare immigrants to pay for our Social Security and become “multicultural”.

The Supreme Court and the Congress take turns with hot potato issues in order to pass bad law. Congress didn’t want to deal with Gay Marriage, so the Supreme Court did it for them.  When Congress passed Obamacare, the Supreme Court gave them cover and declared it a “tax”. The Supreme Court could have refused to hear the Rowe v Wade case and told the Congress to define when life begins first. Likewise, Congress failed to define “Born” and we now make illegal migrant children US citizens at birth with the Anchor Baby rule where parents who are citizens of foreign countries have babies who are US citizens.

When Congress began to expand its enumerated powers without sending an Amendment for the States to ratify, the Supreme Court could have stopped it, but they didn’t. The
“swamp” began in 1865 with Federal Lands and National Parks.

When Congress decided that the 10^th Amendment didn’t apply, they established powers saying that the US Constitution was a “living document” legally amended by erroneous Supreme Court decisions and silence.

When Congress is forced to file Amendments to cover all the unconstitutional powers it has assumed I will believe we are actually returning to the “rule of law”.
