True, and in party I agree with that. Nonetheless the specifics of the decision were extremely well done and thought out and as fair as it could ever be given our certainty and medical capabilities.

I disagree that it was divisive. Congress dropped the ball. What came down in Roe should have been a signal to codify it into law.

I agree about Congressional gridlock today. It's problematic with the court packing because even if Congress codified Roe and made it law, the Supreme Court could overturn it based on the same logic of it not being Constitutional it used to overturn it. Frankly, I believe they would.

I'm not alone in thinking that. Which puts us in yet another constitutional crisis and makes the overturn this century's Dredd Scott decision.

Despite what Clarence Thomas says, no government maintains power without the consent of the governed.

And the court has just thrown their legitimacy in the toilet over fundamentalist bullshit.
