That's getting harder as GOP states tweak electoral maps to their advantage.

Awww... Frankie just loves his Babylon Bee, doesn't he?

It's like his own little kindergarten.

Not wrong at all. In a federation it is important to keep a clear demarcation between state and federal legislative authority. The Supreme Court, with Roe v Wade,  usurped state legislative authority to itself.
In the latest Supreme Court decision the Court reversed that usurpation.

The people of each of the States can make a democratic decision about abortion laws in their own states. They can elect pro- or anti-abortion political representatives. Just because you do not agree with some views doesnt mean that they are illegitimate. Abortion, like many other issues are openly debated and put to the vote. There ard jurisdictions where the majority agree with you, just as there are jurisdictions where they disagree with you.  This is the very essence of the diffusion and balance of political power.

Yes, but one must marvel at the ethical gymnastics at play here. Frank supports abortion rights. Always has.

Here he is, highlighting the importance of the balance of state and federal powers, Constitutional demarcations between jurisdictions, state legislative authority, legal precedent and the reversal of usurpation, etc, etc, etc, but do you know?

He secretly has no problem with abortion at all. Yes, like his very own DL, the old boy couldn't give a hoot.

For the old boy, it's a matter of principle. He's a real legal eagle, that one. Don't get him started on the essence of the diffusion and balance of political power - we could be here all day!

Just don't mention the fraught legal justification for presidential candidates threatening to "overturn all rules, laws and articles, including those in the Constitution". Don't ask when they get caught on tape bullying state election officials to find them 11,800 more votes - "which is one more than what we need". Or have seven state electoral college certificates forged and sent to Congress to declare them the winner of an election they lost. There are way too many overlapping demarcations there, clearly.

And whatever you do, don't raise the Constitutional pretext for presidents staying in power for a third term. The old boy doesn't like to talk about that.

No, the old boy would rather leave controversial legal topics like that alone. Curiously, his legal repertoire consists solely of justifications for removing rights he secretly supports.

That's not a special kind of stupid. It's a mark of devotion.

Yes, Master.

None of you clowns can address the point of this issue, all ou can do is swiftly change the topic and grimace idiotically and yelp 'Trump. Trump'.

Most etgical of you, old chap. I'm sure the rest of us read the article in the OP and said ah. Only in America, eh?

A mother with a twin dying in her womb: herself at risk of organ failure and brain damage - two lives at risk. The doctors are prevented from performing a procedure they've been doing for years - the termination of a dying baby at three months. The medical advice? Travel to another state for an abortion - quick.

Another woman suffers blood clots in her brain while nine weeks pregnant. She's declared brain-dead, spends 16 weeks on life support to support her baby. At six months, they deliver and turn off the machine, ending her life. Not even her parents could make that decision. The baby was born extremely premature - unknown prognosis or if they're disabled, the article doesn't say. At least two other women in Georgia have died after having medical terminations knocked back.

For the rest of us, citizens of a normal, full democracy, it's bleedingly obvious. It's obvious even in the most backward authoritarian states where medical abortions are permitted. To you?

Not wrong at all. The very essence of the diffusion and balance of political power. Clear demarcation between state and federal legislative authority. Usurpation. A giggle about Dems killing 18 year olds, which wasn't really a giggle at all.

DL said it first. He then krapped on about Tylenol causing autism.

The article's not about SCOTUS, it's about the politicization of wombs. The current federal administration's a joke - at best. At worst, they've made health care unaffordable for anyone without a job - such as young, pregnant women. And if you're young, pregnant and - ahem - black, you've got a far higher chance of dying during childbirth, a problem the rest of the developed world seems to have solved.

Only in America, old boy. Only you.
