Topic	What do you think the chances are that roe v. wade gets overturned?
Zeus 07/01/18 1:31:45 PM #39:	Yellow posted... If the new Justice is Conservative there's actually a good chance. It's absurdly doubtful. Even if it was a hardcore religious conservative -- which is unlikely in the first place because you wouldn't be able to get moderate Republicans on board and you need every Republican vote for this -- you'd need to replace more of the bench to make an impact. Yellow posted... I don't need to say "I told you so", I actually just hope it doesn't happen. Do we get to say, "We told you it wouldn't," when it inevitably never comes to pass? Hell, while Trump pays lip service to the Evangelicals, I doubt even he actually wants that given his sexual history. TheCyborgNinja posted... Trump got elected and is well on his way to having America join Russia and North Korea on the "other side". Yellow posted... The single swing vote for the supreme court retired. If the new judge appointed by Donald Trump is Conservative, there will be no more Liberal rulings in the supreme court. Overlooking that "liberal rulings" is ambiguous and vague, it's more a matter of it being far less likely. Keep in mind that Scalia was often the lone dissenter when it came to what were arguably conservative/libertarian cases that lost. Yellow posted... I gave you a real answer without injecting my opinion whatsoever. That was a heavily opinionated response, though. Kyuubi4269 posted... GTFO with that shillin', bro. As stated earlier, they can't just go "Oh right, that ruling ain't cosher no mo'", they do have procedure. Yeah, and even a lawsuit challenging it might not be able to reach the SCOTUS in the first place. Yellow posted... The court had 9 judges. 4 of them Democrat, 4 of them Republican. Republicans will vote against abortion 100% of the time, Democrats will vote for it. 1 of them was the flip vote, and he would vote either way. And there was widespread outrage over Trump's remark that judges couldn't be impartial >_> And, as Fam_Fam notes (and completely tears your argument apart), Kennedy was a Republican. --- (\/)(\/)\|-\| There are precious few at ease / With moral ambiguities / So we act as though they don't exist. <cite>Zeus posted [p:904302142] in What do yo...
