1. The phrase "settled law" has lost all meaning

I'm so old, I remember when judicial activism was abhorred by Republicans and all decent people.

2. "Judicial activism" according to rethugs only applies to Democrats when

they rule against what they - the rethugs - want the interpretation to mean.

3. 100% Correct

5. ABSOLUTELY!!!

4. I'll follow my own compass

I'm glad I am done with the part of my life the fascist liars sitting on the bench try to interfere with. I will continue to support all women in their personal choices, and help those organizations who are on the front line empowering women's equality and personal freedom.

The court decision is wrong, enslaving and wrong. The people who made this decision for this country have their heads up their asses.

6. And......

believing in "settled law" is correct - until you decide it is not.

7. Talk about the end of Democracy starting slowly and dying rapidly, the USSC lost all legitimacy over

the span of several weeks handing down one outrageous opinion after another. While many lower federal courts held and protected the Constitution from Trump, radical state legislatures, and RWNJs, SCOTUS crumbled like a cheap suit and lost all sense of dignity and legitimacy.

8. Holy Hannah!!!

9. Awesome news! I am beyond my child bearing years, but this is good

for my daughters, nieces, young cousins, and young sister friends everywhere.

10. Ha, ha "hermeneutics" is a word mostly used when interpreting the Bible.

The legal scholars, coldly impartial SCOTUS stiffs, and Christian fascists are tea leaf reading through religious rose-colored glasses.
