Is Roe vs. Wade the Law of the Land?

Most of us are upset that liberal judges are "legislating from the bench". We know that judges are not supposed to make law, right? Then why do we play along when an activist judge does legislate from the bench?

Many Christians say "courts cannot make law", but when courts do make law they say, "I guess I have to obey the judge because I have to follow the rule of law." It's true that we must follow the rule of law, but is the rule of law whatever a judge says it is? No! The rule of law is the US Constitution which says in Article. VI.,
“This Constitution...shall be the supreme Law of the Land; and the Judges in every State shall be bound thereby...”
Article VI also requires that public officials be
“...bound by Oath or Affirmation, to support this Constitution...”
A judge's opinion is not the rule of law; the Constitution is the rule of law! This logically means that, when a renegade judge gives an unlawful order, we must disobey him and obey the Constitution instead. Furthermore, we must impeach judges that violate the rule of law.

With all the above in mind, allow me to ask the question, "Is Roe vs. Wade the law of the land?" Think on that awhile, then read this article if you need some more convincing.
