Ever read and studied in depth Roe v. Wade? I support its conclusion, but there's plenty of room to suggest it is nothing more than judicial hocus-pocus. Conservatives have valid legal arguments to support their argument that it was wrongly decided, frankly. As well, they have valid legal arguments that the decision should be left to state legislatures. I think both positions are the weaker of the two arguments on the issues, but that doesn't mean they are "making determinations and then finding the law."

On that point, as I recall, RBG had a similar view: the outcome was correct but the argument was both politically and judicially suspect. Simply put, as I recall, she argued the right to abortion should be based on gender equity grounds rather than privacy grounds.
