MSNBC Legal Analyst: Reasoning Behind Roe v. Wade ‘Shaky’
FinkelBlog ^ | Mark Finkelstein

Could Danny Cevallos’ days at MSNBC be numbered? The question arises because he has–twice by my count–had the temerity to confound liberal thinking on Joy Reid’s show.

Back in February, we noted Cevallos gently explaining to Reid that her suggestion that payments to Stormy Daniels and Karen McDougal could be “bribes” was wrong.

If that was a gutsy thing for Cevallos to do, he took things a giant step further today. For many liberals, abortion is the ultimate issue, and Roe v. Wade the sacred cow. But Cevallos had the audacity to flatly assert:

“Anyone–people on both sides would agree that the reasoning behind Roe, it stands on shaky ground. It rests on the idea that the right to privacy inherent in an abortion emanates from the penumbra–it glows from the rights of the Constitution, even though it’s not explicitly in the text.”

Thats publicly. Privately they know it is garbage thats why they are so afraid of it coming up again. There are very solid arguments for right to life that were ignored in the last decision.

If you have to resort to some twisted form of Plato’s dream to legislate from the bench that leads to tens of millions of lost lives, you may have written a weak ruling.
