    The absolute correct decision and the Christian version of the Taliban needs to stay out of the private lives and health issues of others. These folks are so dimwitted that the do not know that videos can be edited...:wall:

    The big good news is that Roberts and Kavanaugh joined the liberals on this case. That has to grind the Taliban's gears.

    Gosh, don't you think that's somewhat harsh? I mean, who actually would be the Taliban here? I understand how simplistic is the progressive mouthpiece army today, but seriously, even this is lite..... I mean, who are the folks who are demanding that only their POV is respected and actualized in the law? Hmmm... If you need a mirror, any reflective surface might do....

    Tells me that the Supreme Court has no desire to hash out Roe v Wade again.

    No, there are several cases about abortion making their way to the Supreme Court so it sounds like Roberts want to make a ruling on one that's more impactful then this.

    This ruling was only about whether they should hear the case, it had nothing to do with the actual case itself.

    Roberts passed on it while the other cases arrive.

    You there ware two rulings from to appellate courts and they are opposite one another right? The court should have heard this since the courts disagree with one another.

    Sure. That’s done through an act of Congress, not a court ruling. Republicans did not do it when they had all three branches of government, and now they will be suffering the repercussions of electing President Dumdum for probably another four election cycles.

    So good luck with that.

    Scary to think how they'll react to deep fakes. I'm thinking conservatives won't have a prayer.

    I am not the taliban

    Godless libs at Planned Parent hood are selling aborted baby parts and that should be frowned on even in Sodom and Gomorrah much less America

    But this is another example of the unelected and unanswerable demigods in the judicial system overstepping their authority

    Which is even more troubling than the unpredictability of two *******s who would not have that job except for the efforts of conservatives

    An excellent decision by SCOTUS, by a 6 - 3 vote - an overwhelming majority. And no, a god has nothing to do with this......America is not a theocracy,

    You see the problem here? Your position is based on lies and emotion, not facts, logic and practicality.

    I may of may not be wrong about planned parenthood

    But in a self governing system of government like purs the political process must be respected

    And the demigods in black robes are robbing us of our freedem

    Conservatives in the trump era attack the judiciary like this because trump set the example. Like trump, however, you are only attacking the judiciary because you disagree with their rulings, not for any legitimate reason. It's political crying and stamping of feet.

    I would think attacking the judiciary because you disagree with their rulings is a most legitimate reason.
