Because it isn't the FedGov's job. If it isn't in the Constitution, then they have no legal authority. Period.

If you want the FedGov to regulate abortion, pass an Amendment.

But his Hagen woman is billed as a pro-life leader (either she is or she isn't or she is confused). If she is pro-life, she should be pro-life. Likewise paleoPaulie. SCOTUS created this mess with Roe vs. Wade handed down with SCOTUS's usual total ignorance of the constitution. PaleoPaulie likes to pretend that he knows even more about the constitution than the fo8nding fathers or anyone else. He doesn't. If he won't even vote to stop interstate traffic in abortion performed upon minors and their unborn children or the other bills referenced by elizabetty at #6 above, then he is worshiping himself as a constitutional authority at the expense of the kids who ought to be deemed protected by the Equal Protection clause of the XIVth Amendment (which amendment gives Congress power to act) also using the Interstate Commerce Clause to effectuate each of those bills. No amendment is necessary although, given the track record of SCOTUS and libertarians on the issue of abortion, one may be ultimately necessary to get past their inability to read.

In other news, Mrs. Hagan and other New Hampshire pro-lifers would do better to choose among the pro-life patriots available rather than helping Al Qaeda's Congressional friend from the Houston suburbs, Osama bin paleoPaulie, surrender monkey extraordinaire. In that way she can avoid embarrassing pro-lifers who have a grasp of actual politics.

He voted against things that would save the lives of unborn babies. His reasons are of no concern to me.

We already did. It's the 14th amendment. The Supreme Court must rule that abortion deprives unborn persons of life without due process.

Abortion is always wrong. Leaving it up to the states would be like leaving slavery up to the states.
