[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Isn't this the judicial activism that the cons whine so much about? [/quote]

No, because there is no right to abortion in the Constitution. It’s a state issue and always has been. [/quote]
So was it in state constitutions before SCOTUS took it up?[/quote]

Anything not specifically stated in the Constitution falls to the states. That’s how it’s been since it was written. Amend or shut up.[/quote]
You didn’t answer the question.[/quote]

I did. It’s not judicial activism. It’s upholding the Constitution. Amend or shut up.[/quote]

Dp - just se we are clear - you’re espousing a strict construction view - meaning all implied rights are void. So, no right to vote or travel? [/quote]

The Constitution specifically states that people cannot be denied the right to vote. Remember, despite what Obama has said about negative liberties, the Constitution is designed to keep government limited and that your rights are granted not by government, but by God. Travel (aside from creation of postal roads) is not mentioned, therefore cannot be restricted by the Feds. [/quote]
