The myth of a right to privacy in Senate hearings
The piece argues that a generalized right to privacy does not exist in the U S Constitution. It traces Griswold and Roe to elusive reasoning, notes Fourth Amendment limits, and cites critiques by George and Tubbs about privacy as a euphemism for public-morals laws. It warns the Court has overstepped by creating rights from nothing and urges a return to constitutional limits.
