"Let Us Prey"
Matthew 7:15. Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves.
"My job is to interpret the Constitution accurately. And indeed, there are anti-abortion people who think that the constitution requires a state to prohibit abortion. They say that the Equal Protection Clause requires that you treat a helpless human being that's still in the womb the way you treat other human beings. I think that's wrong. I think when the Constitution says that persons are entitled to equal protection of the laws, I think it clearly means walking-around persons [emphasis mine -BG]. You don't count pregnant women twice."- Supreme court Justice Antonin Scalia, "60 Minutes" interview

Good riddance.
"The United States of America governments have exhibited, perhaps, the first example of governments erected on the simple principles of nature. It will never be pretended that any persons employed in that service had interviews with the gods, or were in any degree under the influence of Heaven, more than those at work upon ships or houses, or laboring in merchandise or agriculture; it will forever be acknowledged that these governments were contrived merely by the use of reason and the senses."
- John Adams

The Sharron Angle "Make Lemonade" argument
So, net, the theoretical "rights" of an ovum fertilized by a rapist trump the the ACTUAL rights of the victim."Rick Sanctorum says that even a child conceived through an act of rape is a "gift" and a life that must be protected."
A "gift" that will conveniently remain a Noble abstraction for HIM, in light of biology. Only an ignorant and otherwise narcissistically delusional male could posit this this line.
So, the theoretical "rights" of a fertilized ovum trump the 14th Amendment rights

What if it were your wife, asshole. I'd like to get her opinion in that circumstance.
Narcissistic prima donna.
