First of all, the "right of privacy" did not originate in Roe v Wade. That right was found to exist as a natural sequellae of the rights granted in the bill of rights. it recognized there were certain things in which government had no right to involve itself. You might want to first look at Griswold v Connecticut and Loving v Virginia. Perhaps you'll understand.
Why would it be an "act of congress"?
Yes, Bork talks about how Griswold and Loving were both terrible decisions.
The left loves them because they do what is "right" regardless of whether or not it is constitional.
why would i care what bork says? he's entitled to his opinion, of course.
i think citizens united is the worst decision since dred scott. his opinion has as much weight as mine.
isn't that cool?
I am confident that the SCOTUS will rule against Obamacare. Even if they do not, President Romney will gut it.....
Get it right.
It's Obama cares.
New poll - Obamacare unconstitutional
The Supreme Court won't hear the case until 2014 and will find it constitutional, Alito will be the deciding vote.
Which case? Have we moved on from the Obamacare case?

Do you have some inside information about why they'll bump the hearings from March all the way out to 2014?

I dont believe public opinion polls new or old were mentioned in Marbury v. Madison.
Even most Democrats think the law will loose in court. What does that say about all the posters here who keep saying Republicans are out of touch on Obamacare?
Obama Care IS unconstitutional. But surely you recognize that the constitutionality of a law is not dependent on its popularity.
The conservative SCOTUS has swayed public opinion to their principles over that of legislation passed by Congress ... a very ironic outcome to their own "stated" philosophy against judicial activism.

The simple act of passing Legislation does not somehow make it Constitutional. If it did we would not need a Supreme Court.
When it is convenient for the conservative philosophy otherwise there are three "equal" branches of gov't not to be superseded by "activist" judges ...

One is required to provide EVIDENCE of claims the SCOTUS has made decisions not based on facts and the intent of the Constitution.
I know that the supposed right of privacy that suddenly existed for Roe Vs Wade was rather convenient.

No it was a fabricated "right" from the left. Ohh and as I recall there were FEDERAL laws against Abortion, so at least one Congress at some point passed laws on the issue.

That court was not philosophically opposed to (conservative defined activism) - this court has tempered itself not to interfere with the legislative branch irregardless the consequences some rights might be abused - when it has served the purpose of the 5 conservative Justices.
