I believe Amendment 10 says it all and should end the debates but your point is valid and I amend my statement to include the whole Constitution.
I simply disagree with the current law on abortion and its reading and would rather us allow the States to make their own laws. We as a country tend to over look the part where powers not enumerated in this Constitution are granted to the States (Amendment 10) and fall back on the life, liberty, etc clause to try to argue everything and allow everything on a National basis.
