Thank you. Roe is different in that it harms the unborn whereas Griswold does not. Good distinction.

So you think Griswold can stand on its own against Obamacare and not have impact on a review of Roe?

What instrument frustrated you? Or what in Rock frustrate you. I am a songwriter with a couple of pieces before Alison Krauss’ people.

Obviously it will have an impact, but I think the issue in Griswold and the arguments regarding Liberty are more forcefully enunciated in Griswold. Roe was a terrible piece of judicial activism. Griswold, however, touched on the idea that certain liberties are fundamental and were fundamental at the time the Constitution was enacted. Clearly abortion was not a historical liberty, whereas Contraception was.

What instrument frustrated you?

My frustration is not with the instruments, but in the fact that I can't make a decent living playing the darn things. I am a jack of all instruments and master of none. In the course of my life I have played the piano, clarinet, trumpet, trombone, tuba, french horn, saxophone, violin, flute, drums, bongos, acoustic and electric guitars, 5 string banjo, mandolin, electric and acoustic bass, harmonica, ukulele, and native flute.
