The Federalist Society and Abortion: This should outrage all of us

[MerryHolidays]

The abortion issue is still very much a real one. This article, about The Federalist Society's annual conference, should outrage us. Check out how many SCOTUS justices were there.

This article alone spells out the power of this organization, on abortion and on many other issues. I hope its influence can be limited; otherwise, it will continue to be a spawning ground for judges who have greatly reshaped America, and not in a good way.

1. the worst justice appointed to the bench in us history

[Frasier Balzov]

3. Clarence Thomas was.

Puny intellect. Corrupt. Token appointment to fill Thurgood Marshall's seat.

2. The for Dems to expose every sordid scandal associated with the Federalist Society members and

financiers.
That is all

[JHB]

4. This is also true for a lot of issues that are more "under the radar" than abortion

Environmental laws, labor and civil rights laws, regulation of industry, etc.

The whole reason the FS was founded was to create a "farm team" and pipeline for jurists with "conservatively correct" views to get on the courts and reverse the decisions that supported those things.

5. Only one way to limit the influence of the Federalist Society

Elect Democrats to the Presidency and the Senate.
The Federalist Society isn't going away, and even if it did, it wouldn't matter. Folks don't adopt a particular judicial philosophy by joining the Federalist Society. The folks who join the Federalist Society already have that particular judicial philosophy.
