The abortion narrative

 Instapundit:

WHEN NARRATIVES FAIL: Liberal Yale Professor: Roe Was Bad Law and the Alito Draft Is Constitutionally Sound. “I am a Democrat who supports abortion rights but opposes Roe. The Court’s ruling in the case was simply not grounded either in what the Constitution says or in the long-standing, widely embraced mores and practices of the country. Perhaps I’m wrong in thinking that, and perhaps the Dobbs draft is wrong too. But there is nothing radical, illegitimate or improperly political in what Justice Alito has written.”

Plus: “The state of Colorado just enacted an extreme law along those lines. The Democratic governor defended the new measure, affirming that it would allow abortions all the way until the moment of birth. He framed the issue as one that should be determined by women’s ‘hearts and minds,’ not ‘the laws of men.’ I’ll therefore make male Gov. Jared Polis aware of a new YouGov poll showing roughly two-thirds of women supporting the 15-week ban policy (somewhat liberal by international standards) passed by Mississippi, at issue in SCOTUS’ Dobbs case.”
The Roe decision has been criticized by legal scholars since its inception and has not gotten better with age.  Colorado appears to be pandering to the abortion extremists.
