Law – especially constitutional law – shouldn’t be made on the basis of policy preferences. Abortion is no exception.
Fox News contributor Tomi Lahren has once again caused a firestorm on the right for voicing a pro-choice view, this time, begging the right not to “push” for the overturn of Roe v. Wade. Lahren’s appeal joins the hysterical cacophony from the left over the nomination of Judge Brett Kavanaugh to the Supreme Court and the alleged possibility of Roe getting reversed.
“Do we really want to fight for this — alienate Democrats, moderates, and libertarians, all to lose in the end anyway?” she asked. “That’s a risk I don’t think is worth taking. I’m saying this as someone who would personally choose life, but also feels it’s not the government’s place to dictate. This isn’t a black and white issue and I would never judge anyone in that position.”
While the left has lauded Lahren’s position and even suggested that she ought to be an “example for conservative women,” the reality is actually the opposite: Americans across the political spectrum should support justices who will overturn the judicial gag order Roe and subsequent cases imposed on Americans on the subject of abortion, and let a country deeply divided over this moral issue duke it out in the public square.Read the rest from Inez Feltscher Stepman HERE at The Federalist.
