Senator Susan Collins? She was quite sure that Kavanaugh would honor precedent before delivering her vote.
Show of hands. Anybody surprised at this? Anybody?
Bueller? Bueller?
Kavanaugh's opinion though is spot on and agree's with the appeals court.
there is no war against roe vs wade.
the plantiffs have to offer that an undo burden exists. he even acknowledge that one would exist if the 3 doctors could
not get admitting privs to their hospitals and at that point in time could run foul of the law.
but they had 45 days to get that done before the law took affect.
again this was only a ruling on a stay not the actual law itself.
usually the courts should not rule on something unless someone can produce and actual harm.
since no harm was done and the law has not taken affect yet he was 100% right.

But how long will that realistically last?And yet chief justice Roberts, a conservative jurist, disagrees with his and your opinion.

I don't think Roberts wants to overturn Roe, not because he doesn't have a religious axe to grind with it, but because he doesn't want to undermine the credibility of the court. While I'd be pleasantly surprised to see him respect the precedent, I don't expect him to do so for long.
Make no mistake, Roberts will begin to undercut Roe in his rulings, it's just a matter of when.
So if something goes wrong, she can be admitted immediately without having to go through ER?Why is that needed?

He wrote a dissent - something that happens after almost every decision. Let's pull out his fingernails, waterboard him for a couple of hours and send him to Gitmo. :roll:Too bad she didn't listen when everybody told her she was wrong.

If something goes wrong she is headed for the ER regardless. In other words the requirement is bull crap.So if something goes wrong, she can be admitted immediately without having to go through ER?
Where did you get your medical degree?If something goes wrong she is headed for the ER regardless. In other words the requirement is bull crap.
Brett Kavanaugh Just Declared War on Roe v. Wade
Despite his dishonest protestations at his confirmation hearing, Kavanaugh exactly where I thought the douche-bag would be regarding abortion.
...But if you read the dissent, it’s on the most narrow possible grounds. Essentially, he argues that there isn’t yet any evidence that the Louisiana law will have any immediate effect on abortion access. The state was implementing a 45-day transition period that could allow more doctors to obtain admitting privileges, and if they could not, then the doctors could file an “as-applied” complaint against the law, rather than a pre-enforcement challenge. Indeed, the entire dissent is painstakingly (and painfully) deferential to Whole Women’s Health and the Casey “undue burden” standard more broadly...
Nobody should be.
Just like Connor, Scalia, Alito, Roberts, Thomas, and Gorsuch before him, Kavanaugh lied through his teeth about his intentions to enforce precedents he disagrees with.
IMHO, there should be a price to pay for this by the right. There's a weapon Dems can use, but I don't believe they have the balls for it.
Um, the case is about access to abortion, what are you talking about?Hi MP,
Did you read his decision? What he was actually deciding on? I too thought it was about abortion itself, but it's not. He can be accused of ruling on exactly what's in front of him, instead of looking at the 'big picture', but this one, imo, is exactly that. And I'm pro-choice.

I'm not sure I understand what you're getting at.Based on the OP, those that 'liked' it and the responses following it.
At least you admit that the requirement is bull crap.Where did you get your medical degree?
How is saying you have no knowledge to even judge the requirement "admitting it is BS"?At least you admit that the requirement is bull crap.
Care to try that in coherent English?How is say you have no knowledge to even judge the requirement "admitting it is BS"?
So? Besides, Roberts, a Bush appointee, once again voted with the liberals. Republican politicians once again betraying their voting base by putting liberals on the supreme court.
Change "say" to "saying". Point is the same.Care to try that in coherent English?
