    Bush nominates Roberts as chief justice..

    "WASHINGTON (CNN) -- Moving quickly to fill the vacancy left by Chief Justice William H. Rehnquist's death, President Bush on Monday nominated Judge John Roberts to the nation's top judicial post."

    I have no idea if this is good or bad.. But the slot has been filled.

      Roe vs. Wade will be overturned.

      Canada will become an abortion mecca for those who can afford to travel.

      Obsenity will be more aggressively enforced. The adult biz will run for cover.

      Good luck.

                          An abortion would no longer be a matter between a woman and her doctor.

                          They may become illegal, with a return to the the back alley days.

                                      Well.... Roe vs Wade was the landmark Supreme Court decision that made an abortion a matter between a woman and her doctor.

                                      Before that, the state was passing laws making them illegal.

                                      If Roe vs Wade is overturned, the states could make abortions illegal again.

                                          I think that some american asshats think the same ...


                                          Maybe the " Terry Schiavo v Katrina " gives an insight in the politics of this administration ...

                                          But I could be wrong .. show me!

                                              I doubt it.

                                              It's a lot more difficult to overturn a case that's set 20 years of precident then it is to make a decision like that in the first place. Not to mention you're thinking to much along conservative judges vs liberal judges lines, I believe of the judges that originally voted on that case only scalia is still in office; but more importantly conservative doesn't necessarilly mean pro-life.

                                              Not to mention that overturning that case doesn't necesarilly make abortion illegal.

                                                  Doesn't make them an less of an asshat...

                                                  Prior to Roe v. Wade; Colorado, California, Oregon, New York, Hawaii, Washington, Mississippi, Alabama and North Carolina all allowed abortion. Thirty one state allowed abortion in the case of possible maternal peril.



                                                  From the USA Today (and it's "conservative" leader)...

                                                  USA Today conducted a state-by-state analysis. Their analysis expects 11 "conservative states" to immediately pass laws prohibiting abortion. But those "conservative states" only had 122 abortion providers in 2000, less than 7 percent of the nation's 1,819 abortion providers. "Most of those 122 providers (65) are in Texas," writes USA Today. "If pro-choice forces can hold on to Texas (not unlikely, given the feisty Democratic minority's tendency to flee to Oklahoma to deny the Legislature a quorum when its members are miffed) we're down to 57 providers. If the Democrats controlling the Alabama and Arkansas legislatures decided to act like Democrats, not Dixiecrats, that total could fall to 36."

                                                  That leaves eight "conservative states" with only 36 abortion providers between them ? an already difficult proposition for any woman seeking an abortion in those states. In six of them ? Mississippi, Kentucky, the Dakotas, Missouri and Nebraska ? a woman cannot find an abortion provider in 97-98 percent of those states' counties. In other words, as it stands now, conservative states reduce abortion to almost non-existence, so a post-Roe world, at least in those states, changes little.

                                                                                  Prior to Roe v. Wade; Colorado, California, Oregon, New York, Hawaii, Washington, Mississippi, Alabama and North Carolina all allowed abortion. Thirty one state allowed abortion in the case of possible maternal peril.



                                                                                  From the USA Today (and it's "conservative" leader)...

                                                                                  USA Today conducted a state-by-state analysis. Their analysis expects 11 "conservative states" to immediately pass laws prohibiting abortion. But those "conservative states" only had 122 abortion providers in 2000, less than 7 percent of the nation's 1,819 abortion providers. "Most of those 122 providers (65) are in Texas," writes USA Today. "If pro-choice forces can hold on to Texas (not unlikely, given the feisty Democratic minority's tendency to flee to Oklahoma to deny the Legislature a quorum when its members are miffed) we're down to 57 providers. If the Democrats controlling the Alabama and Arkansas legislatures decided to act like Democrats, not Dixiecrats, that total could fall to 36."

                                                                                  That leaves eight "conservative states" with only 36 abortion providers between them ? an already difficult proposition for any woman seeking an abortion in those states. In six of them ? Mississippi, Kentucky, the Dakotas, Missouri and Nebraska ? a woman cannot find an abortion provider in 97-98 percent of those states' counties. In other words, as it stands now, conservative states reduce abortion to almost non-existence, so a post-Roe world, at least in those states, changes little.
