Activist Judge Blocks Birth Control

Hopefully his decision will be laughed out of court on appeal.

All because a control freak father wants to keep his daughters off the pill.

What a waste of tax payer dollars...

Back in junior high school, when I first learned about the constitution, I thought there were certain decisions of the Supreme Court which were in our politics, irreversible. Brown v. Board of Education was one, Loving v Virginia another. A third was Griswold v. Connecticut which held state laws against contraceptives unconstitutional. I have lived to see all those decisions questioned by originalists. Originalists, of course, quite rightly found in their readings of the constitution that nowhere in it are birth control and interracial marriage mentioned, and of course as supporters of slavery, would never have dreamed of educating black and white children together.

When a politician recently made the theme of his campaign "Make America Great Again", I was somewhat taken aback. I thought America was already great, a lot greater than it used to be. It it isn't great why are all those people lined up at the border trying to get here? But I will say, challenging those basic principles in the Supreme Court cases I cited does give me doubts if anything does. And given the lifetime tenure of justices who question them, I have to say the moral outlook for our nation remains far more uncertain than it should be.
