Just to make one matter clear, I am pro-choice. HOWEVER, the language you cite simply makes my point: there is no real justification in the Constitution for the decision in Roe v. Wade. The Court knew what decision it wanted and invented constructs to justify its wants. Roe v. Wade CANNOT be justified from the Constitution. It is the most egregious example of legislation from the bench I know of. The proper way to handle the matter would have been a specific Constitutional amendment legalizing abortion. The pro-abortion forces no there was no way they would ever get that, however. This is also the reason they are so nervous about Roe v. Wade being overturned: they know there is NO WAY they will ever get a Constitutional amendment passed to actually make it legal and they must rely on the Supreme Court finding matters in the Constitution that are not here to justify their position. Those liberals supporting Roe v. Wade should ask themselves one question: Does the rule of law matter or does it not?
