i'm not here to opine on griswold. for people have different views. the supreme court took that right to privacy and in 1973, reason and precedent and created new rights for abortions. whatever you think about the right to contraception and privacy, i don't think it should include the right to destroy innocent human life in the womb. host: morgan opposes the nomination. go ahead. caller: thank you. i'm against brett kavanaugh's nomination for different reason because hedon't -- doesn't believe a sitting president should be indicted for crime, which is why trump picked him. you care about life outside the womb? the only time we hear about you people is about abortion when a child hasn't been born. but when they are out of the womb, being shot down by police in the back, unarmed, children being taken from parents, we never hear from you people about children who are here, living and breathing, suffering horribly. you care so much about life -- can you explain to me why? guest: i hear that sometimes. why do pro-life only care about people in the womb and

but when something is settled and the law justice kennedy himself answered the question about the griswold case. over the past year and a half donald trump and his administration have led a concerted effort to undermine the country's health-care system and repeal the affordable care act. the organizations that limit the judicial nominees off the federalist society in the heritage foundation to repeal the affordable care act and to undo roe v. wade said it will play a key role in reaffirming or strengthening the law and now we have a focus on that or definitely undermining of weakening it. that's one of the most important things at stake now because we know healthcare is important to every single person in this country regardless of the age of. right now what they are supposed to do is defend the law passed by congress sai so this administration said we are going to side with the state of texas to undo the protection for people with pre-existing conditions. one out of four people have a pre-existing condition. i'm looking out at all of you and me be eve maybe even more tt have a pre-existin

the justice asked a question about the griswold case. we have many nominees before the committee who were willing to say where they stand on dred scott or brown v. board of education. roe v. wade is 45-years-old and its time in nomineit's time in e they stand on that case. >> over the past year and a half, donald trump and his administration have led a concerted effort to undermine the country's health-care system and repeal the affordable care act. the two organizations that mimic the nominees to the federalist society and the heritage foundation are to repeal the affordable care for health care in our country and to undo roe v. wade said the next justice will play a key role either in reaffirming the strengthening healthcare law in the affordable care act and i want to focus on that most definitely undermining of weakening it. and that is one of the most important things at stake in this nominee because we all know that healthcare is very important to every single person in this country regardless of age or political orientation or hea

fred griswold prefers to go it alone if a decision only affects an individual he thinks it should be made by the individual . pre-check a book of yeah carnegie believes in consensus collective decisions means that can't be any complaints because we're involved in the decision making. here some highly skilled collective action synchronized swimming as performed by humans and by fish go to something humans and other animals don't move in water the same way fish do. that something that gave from hong kong pause for thought and it's the topic of our viewer question. why do whales and dolphins swim by moving their tails up and down. while sharks by swaying side to side why some species of shark can swim at speeds of up to fifty kilometers an hour away a little more sedate swimming at an average speed of twenty five kilometers an hour . dolphins can reach fifty five kilometers an hour. but the speed of sea creatures is not determined by their tail movement but rather the creatures size and shape. sharks and many other fish have a vertical tail fin which evolved to allow for. a side to side

it's to go after griswold itself so you can go after contraception. the minute he outsourced the decision to those political groups he knew he was going to be in for the fight of his life and he knew it was going to be hard to keep all of the republicans, some of which have a big problem with a court that's going to overturn the right to full reproductive health care for women. >> robert costa, i think that trump is playing this not just to rule the supreme court for the next 40 or 45 years as he puts it because he could well do that. if ginsburg retires next year or later he could still grab three seats altogether and make it 6-3 and overwhelmingly a right-wing court. my question is is he also using this as a political tool to destroy the political future of people like heidi heitkamp out in north dakota, of joe manchin in west virginia, of joe donnalley in indiana and possibly end or shorten the career of doug jones down in alabama by saying vote your state or vote your party, you choose and i'll kill you either way. your thoughts. >> the poking and

board of education, the griswold v. connecticut case. justice alito answer add question about that case. a number of the nominees on the supreme court today have answered questions about settled precedent, and i believe we should be able to ask judge kavanaugh those questions and receive answers. especially for cases that are 45 years old. people can have personal views on issues. everyone does. judges do. but they have an obligation to follow the constitution, to follow the law, and to respect precedent, and that's going to be our job so that the american people can understand where this nominee is coming from, first by reviewing all those documents that i talked about that are sure to come our way, and then secondly to ask the questions that the american people expect us to ask and get the answers that they deserve to have. mr. president, i would also like to briefly address one of the two circuit nominees that are before the senate this week because even as we review the president's supreme court nominee, we cannot lose sight of the i

number one, i've always believed the real target of this everyday is not "roe" but "griswold."rcles there is an article of faith that there is no right to privacy in the constitution. and that leads me to my second point which is that this particular fight has little or nothing do with trumpism. this is a chance to enact a republican wish list that goes back before ronald reagan. this is an effort to findly reverse the gains of the civil rights movement. john roberts made his bones in the reagan justice department as a young lawyer attacking the voting rights act. the voting rights act will be on the table. obviously labor rights after last week are going to be on the table this isn't trumpism, this is republicanism. >> i'm looking at these ads and there's been so much focus on abortion rights and a woman's right to choose and i would be remiss if i didn't point out that that is not a winning argument alone on this fight. there are red state feminists all over the country that are pro-life and democrats have to find a way to reach out to those women and tell them what is at sta

court who willow pose judge-made law and judge-made law got its perfect definition in the 1965 case, griswoldce douglas had a right to privacy. there is nothing about a right to privacy in the constitution of bill of rights so justice douglas argued the came from the bill of rights having this form ed by the guarantees in the bill of rights. in other words it's out there independence the constitutional ozone somewhere. that was the perfect definition of judge's reading conclusions coming up with reasons later and that's what the liberals relied on for the past 50 years in using the judiciary to achieve their policy and that's what could be coming to an end with this nomination and they know it charles: so a form of act it act it vix and i guess this gets to the notion after the idea that the constitution should be a living document that evolves that reflects society and what society wants now rather than perhaps what the framers intended at that time because they didn't think or know that we would have drones or whatever the argument maybe. >> well that's right, and justice gorsuch, mr. trump
