Want to argue about politics? Healthcare reform? Taxes? Governments? You've come to the right place!
Try to keep it civil though. The rules still apply here.

A whole lot of controversy with foreign election tampering and rigging accusations (from both sides) and possibly unsettled issues in close races, with an even deeper bitter divide between the parties as a result. That's my prediction.

Errr no, it isn't. You said that 100% of fetuses are viable that aren't forcibly expelled from the uterus. Perhaps you don't realise that most spontaneously aborted fetuses are naturally ejected because of their non-viabilty. 50% of first trimester, and 25% of all miscarriages are due to genetic flaws in the fetus. Each one, non-viable and not one forcibly expelled from the uterus.Some may call me foolish, and some may call me odd

I'm sure Turley is correct. Nobody on the Supreme Court wants to make themselves a political target or give the Democrats cause to make good on their threat to pack the court. Honestly, something needs to be done about the latter, because just the threat itself seems to have crippled the court to some extent. It needs to be established as a matter of law that the Supreme Court is to have no more than nine justices. I suppose that can only be done with a Constitutional amendment, but is that even possible in today's political climate?
Granted, one could pass a constitutional amendment to make the rule far more permanent than a simple law does. But it's rather unlikely to pass such an amendment. Why? Well, there are two possibilities. One is that permanently setting it to 9 isn't popular enough to pass the amendment, in which case it doesn't pass. If it is popular enough to pass an amendment... it still wouldn't pass because it'd simply be seen as pointless to pass an amendment to do what's already the law. There's quite a few policies I can think of that are so popular (both among the voting public and among politicians) that the support is there to pass an amendment if that would be necessary to have that policy, but no one bothers because they're already passed by law so why bother. I don't think any amendment in history has been passed with the purpose of maintaining the status quo.

I know you think you're being dashingly clever with this argument, but you look like an idiot to the rest of us.Some may call me foolish, and some may call me odd
