Doctor's Rights
"[W]e can, once again, look forward to hundreds of questions all designed to elicit the same answer: What does [Supreme Court nominee Harriet] Miers think of Roe v. Wade? . .
"Given Roe's centrality, not only to the law, but also to our entire culture, it's worthwhile to understand what Roe's author, Justice Harry Blackmun, intended its reach to be . .
"Blackmun saw laws banning all abortions as infringements on the doctor's rights, not the woman's. . . To Blackmun, Roe was about vindicating the 'the right of the physician to administer medical treatment according to his professional judgment." . . And at the time, Chief Justice [Warren] Burger predicted that Roe would not have 'sweeping consequences.' . .
"[Maybe] some of the senators will see, as much of the public is beginning to see, that Roe is a misbegotten, badly reasoned decision that we are better off without."
