Citing Privacy Right, Miers Rejects Roe Questions

The great Scott Ott offers the following:

Supreme Court nominee Harriet Miers, making the rounds among influential Senators yesterday, refused to answer questions about her views on the landmark abortion case, Roe v. Wade (1973), citing her right to privacy as found in the 1965 Griswold v. Connecticut Supreme Court ruling that served as the key precedent for the Roe decision.
She also refused to answer whether she thinks Griswold is ’settled law’, again citing the 1965 decision.
