Kicking the hornet's nest


For decades, Republicans have been trying to kill Roe v. Wade and a woman's right to choose to terminate a pregnancy. Now, with a stolen Supreme Court seat and two hard-right Trump nominees on the bench, they obviously feel like their time has come.

Here's my prediction.

If Republicans succeed in overturning Roe v. Wade, they won't know what hit them. They will raise such an army against them that Republicans will be swept from office everywhere in this country. They think they stand with the majority in opposition to abortion rights, but the actual majority will not stand for it and will vote their asses out of office so fast their heads will spin.

They may wish they had left the issue alone.

The problem becomes the Supreme Court, which will not be in a position to overturn a new position for a generation.

It'll take a Constitutional Amendment. Or, throwing out the bums in every red state and enacting state protections.
