America is back fighting its endless legal war over abortion. A new front opened late Wednesday when five Justices issued an unsigned opinion declining to block a Texas law banning abortion after six weeks. Cue the hysterics about the end of abortion rights. But this law is a misfire even if you oppose abortion, and neither side should be confident the law will be upheld. ….. Sometimes we wonder if Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton is a progressive plant. His ill-conceived legal attack against ObamaCare backfired on Republicans in last year’s election and lost at the Supreme Court. Now he and his Texas mates are leading with their chins on abortion. How about thinking first?

Loose and the situation is the same as before the attempt.
So what’s to lose?
The next election, snatching defeat from the jaws of victory.
Again.
Probably the only thing that can save the Democrats, well besides the antivaxxers and the mask wars, is the abortion issue.
Ken Paxton stated this AM that it made him laugh to see that
He stated that this was not his bill. It was Texas state legislature. He said it was a very good bill
He said the WSJ progressive editorial staff Put this out.
WSJ has their HUTA.
“ Probably the only thing that can save the Democrats, well besides the antivaxxers and the mask wars, is the abortion issue.”
Bingo. If the opposition continues to act like pussies in not defending the unborn
Defeatists.
What if it’s a genius legal strategy that opens the door to states gaining back their rights over the federal government and the currently constituted Supreme Court supports it?
Hmmm, I wonder if the Texas AG IS a proggy plant

I don’t know about him but I’m pretty sure you are.
Any attempt to minimize the killing of babies is a good thing. Especially in the eyes of God. And anyone fighting against that is on the wrong side.
Everybody who has passed a civics class in high school should have known legislatures write and pass a bill. Then the governor or the president signs the bill to make it a law. Attorney generals don’t write bills. Whoever wrote this Wall Street Journal article needs to take a civics class again.
Nothing is saving the rats in the midterms
The fanatic feminists are voting rat anyway
This is a big vote motivator for the religious
When Ron de Santos was running for the position of Florida’s governor in 2018, he said that he was pro-life and that he would sign a bill (if it were to reach his desk) that if a fetal heartbeat was detected, his bill would ban abortion. Florida still voted for de Santos anyway.
Irrelevant talking heads to the 1st child who lives because of it.
WSJ editorial staff is right though, this is a gift to the Democrats, and given that there was already an attempt to get the high court to take up the case, Paxton’s office would have be tasked with its defense, plus there is his advisory role to public officials.
Lotsa republicans still think WSJ is a conservative editorial newspaper but it’s just log cabin/Rockefeller Republican CINOs [Conservatives In Name Only].
Really.
You feel that way on this forum....
That reverting one day to pre Roe where states can make abortion legal or not is a bad tack for anyone wishing to win national or statewide elections?
Is that what you’re saying?
By throwing Texas into sue-happy thought-crime enforcing perdition?!
The six week limit polls very badly among voters, and its the voters that determine who is in office and for how long they are in office.
Bingo!
