There are many conservatives that do not want religious bias into law, including myself.

I doubt Roe vs Wade will be revisited by the SC, despite the current shriekery on the left.

I would expect 6 occurs by the end of 2019.

Maybe 7.


SC was one of my major 2016 voting issues. I was hoping DT got to select at least 2. Did not see 2 happening so fast.


MAGA-nificient change of SC direction.

Conservative justices have been known for a bias towards business and religion. There are any number of ways of interpreting the constitution but conservatives seem to think only they truly understand the constitution.

The usual wishful thinking. Acompanied by the usual complete lack of evidence or proof. (yawn)

Citizens United for one and of course that is based on a sound interpretation of the constitution.

Liberal mom-in-laws can be biased against conservative son-in-laws.

I like DT's full list, but Barrett is my fav from his list.

OP,

What’s your take on the 13th amendment? It wasn’t in the original constitution. In fact, the original constitution said that fugitive slaves must be returned to their masters.

Hey, I don't care, I live in a blue state that legalized abortion outside of Roe V. Wade but Republicans have lined up multiple abortion cases that are winding their way through the courts. All it will take is one of those to go to the Supreme Court and that's what Republicans are counting on. Like I said, I don't care. But I don't want my taxes paying for the mess in some red state because they decided to force a lot of babies to be born into poverty and now have the resulting costs associated with that.

Red states themselves should have to pay for that just like Ohio should have to pay for the law they passed forcing Downs Syndrome babies to be born. That is going to force the birth of babies with heart, hearing, vision and other expensive issues that will need to be treated and will need to be watched over 24/7.

No, it's not that conservatives have a bias toward the Constitution. ALL - well, almost all - justices base their decision on the Constitution, but it's open to interpretation. However, one example of not following the Constitution was when conservatives threw the election to Bush.
