Reminds me of getting a new boss who immediately starts making changes with no background or understanding of what led to the way it was and if those changes will actually help. Some get it right but most fail.
Pretty big one. There are probably other issues we could look at if we were so inclined. Six of these were appointed by a Republican pres, right ? 66 % of Americans obviously arenât Republican.
And thatâs 47% that still have a good deal of faith in the SC, much more than the Presidency or Congress.
Yes, itâs not the SC, itâs Dodd. Clearly most people were happy with abortion being allowed up to a certain time as approved by the Court, and didnât want it put back in the political arena.
That doesnât mean the court was wrong, just not popular.
Logically, Roe never made any sense. It basically said that no one can tell when life begins and then proceeded to dictate when life began.
Thatâs true, like someone else pointed out - part of the reason for lifetime appointments on SCOTUS is so the judges arenât supposed to issue rulings based on popularity or be swayed by elections.
I donât see a little Don Knotts ball at the top of the second one. CYA all you want, but that second post looked like a follow up to the one preceding it.
