Why would they? Roe was decided law. Ask any of Lewzer's SCOTUS nominees."
Slavery was decided law. I guess maybe that explains why Dems ignored it so long until it impacted their pocketbooks and then fought in a civil war to keep slavery.
The saddest part is these comments prove beyond any doubt that so many liberals don't actually listen to what the other side says at all. In general, and most comment boards and online personality rhetoric proves it, cons have wanted it to be state law for a very long time. And when the SCOTUS reversed it, cons saw it as a huge win for state law. Now, I'm with liberals being irked that cons went way too far and didn't even compromise, but both sides do this often. But, cons went to the extreme and started wanting it banned everywhere and now the extreme right is fighting to make it federal...which is the dumbest response to the situation that one could come up with. That doesn't take away the fact that most cons want it to be left at a state level. To prove this, I went to Fox and opened an article about this, and the majority of the comments are about people agreeing with Trump and that it shouldn't be tackled at the federal level.
But, don't let doing doing your own research across multiple paths get in the way of making knee-jerk, partisan responses. In fact, I KNOW that DR members don't since not long ago and article came up about this and someone commented how using multiple sources isn't a good thing, and many agreed with that person. I'm still blown away by that, which says a lot coming from DR comments.

Offs debating a conservative is like trying to grab an octopus.
We do listen to what the other side says. that is why we are disgusted and afraid for the future. Religious whacko fundamentalist will strip away the rights of 50% of the population over their parochial concept of when life begins. They are infringing their religious beliefs on the rest of us. We listen quite well and reject their archaic and barbaric way of life.
We HAD a compromise, we had a situation that worked for decades, to the point women were achieving a form of equality because they had a choice in when they could start a family, if they wanted one. That INHERENT right, was stripped by a noxious, illogical, results based judicial decision that flew in the face of what 6 justices said UNDER OATH.
People are ------- dying because of the Dobbs decision and the number of abortions increased. Because all "sending it to the states" did was make it more burdensome to get an abortion. THAT IS WHAT IT ACHIEVED. That and making pregnancy more dangerous for many women.
That is an idiotic and unworkable solution to the matter, so, LOGICALLY, the only thing conservatives can and WILL do is ban abortion nationwide. THEY ARE ------- PLANNING ON IT. A nationwide ban will become law the next time a Republican gains the white house because they will begin enforcing the Comstock Act. That doesn't require congressional action.
