Leaked Supreme Court Decision signals majority set to overturn Roe v. Wade
RE: Leaked Supreme Court Decision signals majority set to overturn Roe v. Wade
Alito seems to think that if there was once a time that you didn’t have some particular right, you should never have it.

Alito thinks the us constitution is wrong. We do not, in fact, have other rights not enumerated by that dead, dead document.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

This is awful news. RBG really should have put the ego aside and stepped down so Obama could nominate someone else.

The constitution doesn't explicitly state that The Purge can't happen.  I guess it is therefore constitutional!

The constitution doesn't explicitly state that samuel alito's job and majority is secure..either..but who wants to take bets on his position on that matter?

It's government by trolling, for the purpose of grift, and no other end.

Other birth control is banned?  The religious concept that sex is only for the purpose of reproduction?

We are not heading in the right direction.

It makes me glad my reproductive days are over but I have grandchildren who could be dealing with these issues up close and personal.

Being black and not being some rich white man's property. That's the ultimate goal.

There is nothing saying that a potential appointee would have been approved...in fact, the likelihood is that they wouldn't have been.

This is not RBG's fault, you twit.

Another predictable reich wing talking point is passed from nuts lips to our ears, through IA. Starting to wonder if he has thoughts of his own, or maybe he's just spare parts?

What are you talking about? Calls started for RBG to step down and be replaced early in Obama's 2nd term. Of course Obama would have been able to pick someone to take her place. RBG could have stepped down at any point, but her narcissism clouded her judgement, and of course, we never know for sure when we're going to die, but it ended up being a huge error on her part. I'm not putting all the blame on her for this, but things happen for many reasons, and you can't learn any lessons if you ignore the things that went wrong. Don't let ego get in the way of your values and goals. RBG did that.

The president doesn't just get to pick someone and they automatically become part of SCOTUS.  

Appointment Of U.S. Supreme Court Justices

The nomination process for a new Supreme Court justice begins when one either retires from the court or passes away. Thereafter, the sitting U.S. President nominates a qualified replacement. After this occurs, the Senate Judiciary Committee takes over the next part of the appointment process. This committee then vets the nominee's background, history and credentials and holds a first hearing with him or her to question them on their qualifications. The committee then votes on the nominee and the nomination is then sent to the full senate to go forward or with the recommendation that the nominee be rejected. If the nominee is rejected then the president will have to pick a new nominee and the process will start over.
