While not unexpected, I believe this unfortunate decision is a clear signal that the Supreme Court is opening the door to further challenges to personal medical decisions between patients and doctors that should not involve the government. [Source: (http://www.freenewmexican.com/news/60412.html" title="FreeNewMexican.com)]

While we should be concerned for reproductive choice/freedom/rights, also in peril is the medical privacy between an individual and their doctor for any circumstance.

I don’t know about you, but I don’t want some estranged politician having a say in any of my medical decisions.
