I’ve got news for you: Row vs Wade isn’t part of the constitution.

A baby with a heartbeat isn’t a mere blob, it’s a life, and that’s a biological fact. Snuffing out a human life is called murder. Murdering an innocent life in order to remove responsibility from sex is not a guaranteed “right”, but, protecting life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness is the foundation of our Constitutional Republic.

So for all your appearances of being pro-Constitutional, you’ve completely missed the whole point of it and set yourself in opposition to its core principles!

HYPOCRITE!!! MURDERER!!! Baby Killer!!! People who justify murder under the pretext of law are the worst, because they have no conscience!

You are aware that Roe vs Wade was decided in a SCOTUS that had a 6 Justices appointed by Republicans and Republican appointed Justices have been in the majority for the last 40 years. Seems the Republicans . the ones who favor abortion

Yea.... Republicans just like John McCain. Just because a person registers, for the purpose of gaining votes, as a Republican, Democrat, Libertarian, or whatever.... does not make them a 100 percent supporter of their party. Also, when these people were nominated, they were selected on one factor... who could be approved. Many are unable to stand up to the selection... Kavanaugh is the only one I can remember who thumbed his nose at the committee and was seated regardless of his opponents. We would like to see people who do not play the game for election, but rather stay true to their convictions....but, that rarely happens. It is not until they achieve their goal, a seat or official position, do we (US Citizens) find out what they truly believe or think.

I’m no scholar of Muslim teachings, but doesn’t the Qu’ran allow lying of Muslims to non-believers? Seems to me, if the Qu’ran advocates in any way that it’s teachings supersede those of a Muslim’s host country, then allowing a Muslim to be sworn into office on a Qu’ran would be tantamount to encouraging and empowering a Muslim not to be bound to upholding our Constitution where it conflicted with their mission of Muslim expansion of sharia law. Can anyone say conflict of interest?

As a Christian, I readily and heartily admit the Bible says “We must obey God rather than men.” Acts 5:29

But it also says, “Submit yourselves to every ordinance of man for the Lord's sake” 1 Peter 2:13.

I realize this superficially appears to be a contradiction, but in context it is not. In Acts, they were being told not to preach in Jesus’ name. There was no such ordinance, it was just jealous religious leaders whose false form of religion was being exposed by the light and truth of the gospel. Their command to the apostles to desist was an overreach by the leaders, much like libs try to deny our religious liberties in the practice of the Christian faith. Furthermore, the gist of the gospel’s commandments are to love:

“8Owe no one anything, except to love one another; for he who loves his neighbor has fulfilled the law. 9For the commandments, "You shall not commit adultery," "You shall not murder," "You shall not steal," "You shall not give false testimony," "You shall not covet," and whatever other commandments there are, are all summed up in this saying, namely, "You shall love your neighbor as yourself." 10Love doesn't harm a neighbor. Love therefore is the fulfillment of the law.” Romans 13:8-10

The point being, what the Bible is saying and commanding is that, if there are unjust laws or rules of man, Christians must hold themselves to a higher standard, that of loving their neighbor as themselves.

What American would advocate “obeying” an unjust law if it meant doing or justifying harm to someone else?

How does swearing on a Qu’ran compare?

Wouldn’t “swearing in” on a Qu’ran, then, actually be tantamount to neutralizing the very purpose of the ceremony?

Seems to me, Naïveté is not a good excuse to allow Trojan Horses into our country and government.

Ever hear of the term “RINO”?

What is the Democrat’s term and attitude toward those in their “party” who only support Democrat policies with lip service?

Have you ever heard a Republican say there are no bad Republicans?

What was your point, then?

BTW, I’m not a Republican.

Swearing on the Bible is a custom with a lot of informal pressure attached to it, but it is not a legal requirement of office. If it were a legal requirement, that would violate the No Religious Test Clause of the United States Constitution. That clause was deliberately put in the Constitution, because the Founding Fathers were opposed to the United States passing any laws that resembled the British Test Acts, which imposed penalties on Roman Catholics and nonconformist Protestants.

Keith Ellison, the first Muslim elected to the House of Representatives, took his oath of office on a copy of the Qur'an that had previously been owned by Thomas Jefferson. John Brennan, past director of the Central Intelligence Agency, took his oath office by placing his left hand on an original draft of the Constitution, not the Bible. Similarly, Kyrsten Sinema, a Congresswoman from Arizona and the sole member of Congress who declares herself "religiously unaffiliated," swore her oath of office on the Constitution, just as CIA Director Brennan did.

BTW, Kankune, could you us know what Muslim U.S. Senator was alleged to have swore in on the Koran? I am aware of three Muslim members in the U.S. House of Representatives...two women and one male.

For a breakdown of our congressional representatives religious affiliations...

Oaths are traditionally sworn to with the right hand raised. That leaves the left hand for other use.

What is the implication of all congresspersons likely to have taken the oath of office with their left hands on the Bible, Constitution or Koran/Qu'ran

Circular logic. And FYI, the Bible is not the be-all and end-all of the human condition. It is no more, or less, credible than the Qu'ran.

SCOTUS is not a political organization. Regardless of their, or their appointor's, political affiliation, they take an oath to make their decisions based on the Constitution. Interestingly enough, so do House members, Senators and <gasp> the President.

The decision aligned all the States to the same laws. The first trimester was not as tightly constrained as the second two, but it was still not meant to allow abortion for convenience. A women desiring an abortion even in the first trimester had to have the consent of a doctor that it was medially necessary. That is patently not being done with the majority of abortions being done without a medical reason. Therefore illegally.

On Jan. 22, 1973, the Supreme Court handed down their ruling, holding that a woman's right to an abortion falls within the right to privacy protected by the Fourteenth Amendment. The decision gave a woman a right to abortion during the entirety of the pregnancy and defined different levels of state interest for regulating abortion in the second and third trimesters.

In the first trimester, the state (that is, any government) could treat abortion only as a medical decision, leaving medical judgment to the woman's physician.

In the second trimester (before viability), the state's interest was seen as legitimate when it was protecting the health of the mother.

After the viability of the fetus (the likely ability of the fetus to survive outside of and separated from the uterus), the potential of human life could be considered as a legitimate state interest. The state could choose to "regulate, or even proscribe abortion" as long as the life and health of the mother was protected.

Then why doesn't it concern you that the Obama administration's brokering the Uranium One Deal was bad dealing.
