Addle-Brained Biden Doesn’t Understand The Constitution At All | Eastern North Carolina Now

    With less than three weeks to go before the midterm elections - which many pollsters predict will be a bloodbath for Democrats - liberals are getting desperate.

    While nationwide surveys show soaring inflation, skyrocketing food and gas prices, rampant crime and the crisis at the U.S. southern border as the top issues for voters, liberals are hyping a woman's right to choose abortion, a losing issue with the way things are right now.

    The uber-liberal Independent newspaper brought out this breathless headline on Tuesday: "Biden promises to codify Roe v Wade in January if Democrats win control of Congress."

    "Joe Biden will sign legislation protecting access to abortion care into law if Democrats win control of Congress in midterm elections this fall," the U.K. paper declared.

    "If Republicans get their way with a national ban, it won't matter where you live in America," Biden said at a Democratic fundraiser on Tuesday. "The only sure way to stop these extremist laws that have put in jeopardy women's health and rights is for Congress to pass a law."

    Biden went on to say that he would "codify" Roe v. Wade, the landmark 1973 Supreme Court decision that enshrined abortion as a constitutional right, on the 50th anniversary of the ruling.

    "And I've said before: The Court got Roe right nearly 50 years ago, and I believe Congress should codify Roe once and for all," he said to applause.

    "And, folks, if we do that, here is the promise I make to you and the American people: The first bill that I will send to the Congress will be to codify Roe v. Wade. And when Congress passes it, I'll sign it in January, 50 years after Roe was first decided the law of the land," he said to more applause.

    But here's the problem: In June, the nation's high court struck down precedents established by Roe v. Wade and Planned Parenthood v Casey. So Congress voting to pass a bill that simply "codifies" the tenets in the 1973 ruling would all but certainly be overturned by the Supreme Court, which ruled that it wasn't a protection guaranteed in the Constitution.

    Biden has absolutely no power to "codify" Roe v. Wade - and he doesn't even know that.

    In the Supreme Court ruling, Justice Samuel Alito said the Roe ruling and subsequent court decisions that reaffirmed Roe "must be overruled" because they were "egregiously wrong," the arguments "exceptionally weak" and so "damaging" that they amounted to "an abuse of judicial authority."

    "The Constitution makes no reference to abortion, and no such right is implicitly protected by any constitutional provision, including the one on which the defenders of Roe and Casey now chiefly rely - the Due Process Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment," Alito wrote.

    "That provision has been held to guarantee some rights that are not mentioned in the Constitution, but any such right must be 'deeply rooted in this Nation's history and tradition' and 'implicit in the concept of ordered liberty," he added. "It is time to heed the Constitution and return the issue of abortion to the people's elected representatives."

    What's more, abortion is not a winning issue for Democrats, at least not this time around, according to James Carville, the architect of Bill Clinton's win in 1992. Back then, more than 10 million Americans were unemployed, job creation was the slowest since the Great Depression, the federal deficit had reached a record high, and poverty and welfare rolls - along with inflation - were soaring.

    "A lot of these consultants think if all we do is run abortion spots that will win for us. I don't think so," Carville said. "It's a good issue. But if you just sit there and they're pummeling you on crime and pummeling you on the cost of living, you've got to be more aggressive than just yelling abortion every other word."

    And this is the guy who coined the campaign motto, "It's the economy, stupid."

    It was then, and it is now.

Considering what is being reported as the most divisive presidential speech - September 1, 2022 - in modern American history, where over 74,000,000 people, many of whom are OUR greatest patriots, were named as fascists by inference or otherwise: Is Joe Biden clearly capable of governing all of the American People to the betterment of this Representative Republic?
  Yes, it is important that Haters are named.
  No, Joe Biden cannot accept criticism when the real truth is his cruelest taskmaster.
  I have no idea what is going on because I only consume Democratic Socialist Media.

Inarguably, the policies of the Democrats in congress and Joe Biden as the Executive is plunging the United States into a recession, if we are not already there; a recession that was completely avoidable. Will abrupt changes in policies occur in time?
  Yes, the Democrats have a bold plan, yet to be revealed, to save us.
  No, there will have to be a complete undoing of the damage done by these Democrats.
  I can't do simple math, so how am I to understand the concept of basic economics.

The Fool Biden is an idiot certainly, and does not understand the US Constitution, as the powerful 10th Amendment allows states the power to legislate matters such as abortion, without interference from a simple minded congress and an even more idiotic president of this last dubious election.

Now, here is the sad truth Americans, and please understand that I only tell the truth here to elevate voters' wisdom so they may be better served to make better choices: Few elected Democrats, many of them lawyers, do NOT have a full grasp of the power of the United States Constitution, and neither do Republican RINOs and the Democrat "Secret Sleepers," another foul class of dubious Republican interlopers; locally, Frankie Waters is one proved "Secret Sleeper," who tends to be one that is Sid'n' with Bid'n.'
