    So simple. People should be celebrating having the opportunity to decide what their standards will be where they live. I think the beauty of living among like-minded people is lost on Democrats, unless of course you only agree with them. Are Californians still moving away from California in large numbers. ;)

    They're moving to Texas and ID. I might be joining them soon. ;) It can't get much worse here now with Newsom inviting pg. women to CA. to have abortions and he'll pay for their transportation to get there.

    You should know that there are many people, some who are not all that religious or religious at all, who see why Roe was overturned. Maybe you should try and stop playing the religion card and debate the issue without using bigotry.

    I'm all for states rights, in doing things states are qualified and authorized to do.... Set taxes and spending, determining debt obligation, commerce, education (within limits), elections (within limits), SAFETY of it's citizens (wink wink)

    Basic human rights just ain't it.... never was....

    That's exactly it. Old (for the most part) people making rules for young people they themselves won't be around for much longer to see.

    Do they not get that the 75% of young people who support access to abortion are going to get this overturned sooner or later?

    What a humongous waste of time, effort and money.

    I suggest you go back to school and retake a civics class. You are demonstrating an extreme ignorance on how our government works.

    You do understand that Congress is made up of representatives from the States, right?

    I get that, your missing my point. Lets take retired people on a fixed income, they are what supposed to sell the house and all their belongings and buy a new house simply because the legislature cranks out legislation they didnt even get to vote on? I dont buy your position its not functionally realistic, and wrecless use of power. Of course it stimulates the economy to make laws that are so draconian people constantly are forced to move from state to state to exercise the freedom they should they have the right to enjoy in any state! It promotes segregation and disorder when the guv rules on religious matters thay have no authority to rule on in the first place, except of course the authority they granted to themselves.

    Because he said it should be reviewed. If he didn't want do something about it, he wouldn't have said that.

    What part of the democratic process of voting are you confused about? Obama said it best when he said: "Elections have consequences." Newsome (of California) is currently learning that the voters that put him in office can remove him before he even finishes his term. That's democracy in action. I know most voters prefer to be lazy and just look for the right initial behind a candidate's name and therefore they deserve what they get. But if you want to really change things you can't afford to be lazy. I have no sympathy for apthethic voters. Quit being ****ing lazy!

    I was seeing the development of offshore clinics on unused/older cruise ships, primarily in the Gulf of Mexico... Just cruise around and get close enough to the fascist states for quick ferry rides to and from...

    Gonna have to get creative here... they have....

    And why did he say it should be reviewed? Baby steps. You'll get there.

    Well, no worries with that issue here.... I assume Mrs. Thomas is calling the shots here, and Clarence will play along as usual....

    All you have is attacks. You can't even argue what Thomas Clarence said.
