Roe did not find abortion to be constitutional or legal. It found that a woman's right to have an abortion stems from her right of privacy as to control of her body. An expectant father has no right to such control over his wife's body. It was a crappy opinion. Today, the law(s) on abortion are one huge conglomerate of WTF! Politicians use abortion to keep the country talking and fighting about it. We should be smart enough to see that and not let it be the reason for electing a particular candidate for office. Americans are descending quickly and I hate being here to see it. God bless us!

When the father abandons his responsibilities (which is the case in better than half of elective terminations), what gives a bunch of old white men any say in the matter at all? These old farts are even trying to make contraception either illegal or very difficult to get, a position which is morally indefensible.
That is why we have DNA tests and laws to force men to pay support for their children. Where is your data for the claim over half of the elective abortions are for a absent father?
