Babies everywhere rejoice…

Yes, Lefty
panic. And rightly so.
Abortion on demand is the sine qua non of progressivism. Without a significant sector of society empowered to choose, arbitrarily, the death of another helpless human being, all the rest of their utopian goals — income redistribution, socialized medicine, gun confiscation, sex-reassignments for 8-year-olds, dissent criminalized, the Green New Deal, race-based decision making, you name it – are all worthless. If the killing can’t continue, what’s the point of anything?
… Both slavery and abortion could only exist if Americans were willing to allow a particular class of humans can be deprived of all their fundamental rights: African blacks in the case of slavery, any unborn child in the case of abortion. In the early days, both institutions were tolerated as “necessary evils.” Eventually, defenders were praising both of them as positive goods.
… Legalized abortion after Roe has followed the same progress, except, so far, to a civil war. In the early days abortion was defended as a necessary evil: “Don’t say we’re pro-abortion,” they complained. “We don’t like abortions. It’s just for these rare, tragic, problem situations like 13-year-old rape victims and women who’ll die if they give birth. There’s simply no other solution!”
… The Left is terrified of the outcome of Dobbs because, without being able to throw down, as the last word that silences every moral, social, or medical argument against abortion, that the “fundamental right to abortion is the law of the land,” they’ll have to actually have those arguments. And win them. For half a century, those arguments are exactly what Roe has saved them from. If the Supreme Court overturns Roe v Wade, it becomes a question of good and evil again. And they know they’re not ready for it.

The truth is,
Roe is already dead.
States are already intervening, and would regardless of the status of RvW.
The fact that RvW is a legal steaming pile of crap is NOT the issue, here. It is that RvW is irrelevant.
But what hasn’t been pointed out in the frenzy over the leaked Dobbs draft opinion is that Roe is, practically speaking, already dead — regardless of what the Court decides to do in Dobbs. The states already have the ability and authority to restrict abortion in any manner they see fit. Accordingly, they do not need to wait for the Court to overrule Roe to severely limit or simply outlaw abortion within state borders.
So how?
Oklahoma was able to pull this off by copying the ingenious enforcement mechanism from the Texas Heartbeat Act, which prohibits state officials from enforcing its restrictions while authorizing private citizens to sue anyone who performs or “aids or abets” an abortion. By structuring its law in this manner, Oklahoma has made it impossible for abortion providers to challenge the statute’s constitutionality in federal court: There are no state officials providers can sue for enforcing the law. [emphasis added]
Basically, State officials can’t be sued. THEY are not enforcing any restrictions. But abortionists can be, personally.
All of this makes the anticipated ruling in Dobbs at least somewhat anticlimactic — it will not be the formal overruling of Roe that returns the issue of abortion to the states. That moment has already arrived, as Texas and Oklahoma have cracked the code and demonstrated how to enact an abortion ban that evades judicial review and neuters Roe.
And to be sure, more states will do this if Roe somehow escapes the chopping block. ANY state can outlaw abortion, now.
Indeed, Texas and Oklahoma have already done it — and more states will follow if the eventual ruling in Dobbs stops short of the leaked draft opinion’s total repudiation of Roe.
And just think. Jet’s say you are just a “temp” at the front desk at the abortion clinic. You have no malpractice insurance! And yet you can be sued for aiding and abetting an abortion…
In the immortal words of Dr. McCoy, “It’s dead, Jim!”

Yeah, let’s
call things as they are:
It certainly once was, but is it any longer possible to be both moral and a conventional Democrat? Asking for a friend…

Yep, total
extremists!
No moral, rational person thinks like that! I mean, how depraved would you have to be? Extremist Democrats now are WELL into a nightmare of psychopathy. This serial killer stuff!

Bloodthirsty Democrats hardest hit… Babies, both born and unborn, rejoice.

The TRUTH is,
pretty much nothing gets Democrats all on a lather to vote like a threat to baby-killing!
And THAT, my friend, is why they are doing this. I mean, what else are they going to run on? Sure, it’s demonic, but other than that minor flaw it looks pretty good! At least the best option available to them.
Every Democrat not named Joe Manchin just went all-in in on aborting babies until the point of gestation.
THAT is nothing but terrifying!

Look, there’s
really not much Biden can do.
“His options are extremely limited,” one official explained. “The president has maintained since the campaign trail that his administration stands firmly behind a woman’s right to choose, but any action he might take will surely be challenged by Republicans in court.”
But of course, Democrats would need 60 votes in the Senate for a congressional option. Not bloody likely…
