On Abortion, Democrats do NOT trust the Democratic Process

We all know Democrats are lazy, (as well as delusional.) Abortion is a prime example.

1. Roe was bad law. It was unconstitutional. Getting rid of it was the right thing. Sending the DEMOCRATIC decision to the states was the right thing.

2. Anti Democracy Democrats whined, bitched and moaned about that. Why would they do that? If Abortion is so popular, why wouldn't they trust the people of the states to vote for abortion on demand, right up to the moment of birth?

3. If the COUNTRY was pro-abortion, why couldn't the last few Democrat presidents (and their Democrat Congresses) come up with a bill that forced ALL states to allow abortion on demand, right up to the point of birth? Why couldn't Democrats trust the Democratic process? If they believed MOST OF THE COUNTRY agreed with them, why hasn't there been a bill from Congress and why hasn't a Democrat president signed it into law. That would have shut down the entire pro life movement.

ANSWER THAT, libs.

Roe v. Wade was constitutional by definition, because the Supreme Court determines constitutionality and they decided it was constitutional. And Dobbs is now constitutional until it is overturned when we have a Court that reflects American values and beliefs at some time in the future, instead of minority rule.

The reason no bill has been passed is that it would take 60 votes in the Senate, and neither party has had that kind of majority since the 1970s right after Roe was decided.

In other words, THE AMERICA PEOPLE do not want abortion on demand, up to the point of birth, and you goose steppers do not trust the Democratic process. Sieg heil.

@Reason10 In other words, a significant majority support the right to an abortion, but Republican obstructionists won't vote for it. Sieg Heil.

@windinhishair They represent the people. And apparently enough people do not want abortion on demand, up to point of birth, and paid for by the taxpayers. If those Republicans were not representing their people they would have been voted out of office.

You Nazis just don't like the idea that you can't get every FINAL SOLUTION scheme you want through the legitimate legislative process. You need the courts to legislate from the bench. ]

And THIS Court decided to do its job and apply the CONSTITUTION and overturn a bad law.

Or did you agree with the DRED SCOTT DECISION? (That was the precedent Roe was based on.)

@Reason10 Over 60% of the US population supports the right to choose in many or most circumstances, so your statement is, as usual, a lie. There was nothing to legislate. Roe was constitutional and settled law for 50 years.

The Court is indeed legislating from the bench to remove pesky previous rulings the Reich Wing dislikes. They will all be reversed in the future when the Court finally reflects real Americans and their values and not an extreme right-wing minority.

Roe was not based on Dred Scott. The analogy was made in a dissenting opinion by Justice Scalia in the ruling on Planned Parenthood of Southeastern Pennsylvania v. Casey, but it makes little logical sense. You can read about it in more detail here:
