Annie Althouse Bares Her Bloody Teeth

Althouse is a Libertarian.  And it shows.

...There's no need to wait until the Court overrules Roe (i.e, Casey). 

Murray notes "the congressional bill" and links to "House passes bill to create statutory right to abortion as a battle over Texas law heats up" (from last September). There will only be bans on abortion if the democratic processes within government provide the relevant statutes — contrary to the delusion of those low-information citizens who think the fetus is about to acquire a constitutional right to life — and these democratic processes can just as well enact a statutory right to have an abortion. 

If we the people really want this right, we can get it. The Democrats have a lot of power now, and there should be pressure on them to use it, and you can see the House has already acted. We're told the President "strongly supports" the legislation. The trick is to get the bill through the Senate....
Gratuitous insult returned, Annie.
 
What Annie does not anticipate--in her Madistan cocoon--is the likelihood that any Federal legislation on the topic will hit the same buzzsaw as does Casey/Roe.
