    Naturally, that is why many chose to vote Trump in - for the SCOTUS seat(s) for exactly this purpose- but it can't come as a surprise to anyone here that the planned attacks on this particular ruling has resulted in a push back?
    Interesting in the state of Louisiana a fetal heartbeat bill has been introduced by a Democrat and the Governor, also a Democrat, has said he would sign it.

    I'm always still in trouble again

        Before voting Trump, you need to listen to David Ignatius talking to Preet - stay tuned with Preet.

          I don't especially want to vote for Trump, but the likelihood of any Democrat nominee aligning better aligning with any of my positions is somewhere between slim and none (and slim just left).

            Why formulate your own opinion when someone else can formulate it for you?

                I think I've taken it when I've had gas.
                The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

                  Of course. And you may recall that Jimmy Bond and a few other celluloid heroes have had narrow escapes from coffins, but I think they would have a much harder time in this case. The English Burial Service; it goes, ‘earth to earth, ashes to ashes, dust to dust’ might need a little update; something more watery.

Personally I think republicans would be better off nominating Bill Weld, a good man and a true republican. Weld will tear Trump to shreds in a debate setting, he'll at least divide the party thus paving the way for the new democrat President, Elizabeth Warren.

                      I think that's the point -- the 'middle ground' is all but totally gone. You don't even hear "abortions should be safe, legal and rare" anymore.
                      That's because you have what's called selective hearing there, CP.

                        You mean like the republicans did? The Republicans and the Tea Party.

                          They already are, MM. It's called the Tea Party.

                            Yeah, there just isn't any lying, thieving, Autocratic Democrats out there.
