The Right to Abortion, the Right to Privacy

It's based on a constitutional right to abortion, despite what not church mouse would have you believe. The due process clause of the fourteenth amendment protects the right to privacy against state action. It's basically a technicality about the right of privacy and a patient and their doctor. So it was, let me read that again, that the right to abortion could be found somewhere in the constitution, and that specifying its exact location was not of paramount importance.
