I wrote anger, but that doesn’t quite cover my feelings. Rage. Fury. Outrage. Flat out wrath. |

Actually I expect them to go after gay marriage and sodomy laws first. Alito specifically calls those out in his opinion. Contraception will have to wait a couple terms. |

I'm not shocked. Of course they lied, who GAF? We know they lie all the damn time.
It seems obvious to me that someone on the conservative side leaked it. They want to galvanize their base. Also they know that Democrat voters have short memories. Making this news in May means more time for voters to get over their anger about Roe and focus on the fact that their f&cking toddlers are still wearing masks in daycare. I think it's awful to overturn Roe, but obviously they were going to do it, it would be political suicide to promise this to their voters and not deliver with a 6-3 majority. |

Seriously, Women choose to abort for many social reasons, but also straight up ECONOMIC ones. if these right wing wacko men most of whom are uneducated, unemployed and divorced want a woman TO HAVE THEIR BABY Maybe they should INSTEAD of trying to Force women to Bear their Children AGAINST HER WILL, maybe make themselves MORE WORTHY of having their Genes passed onward in TIME BY: 1) Get a College Education and then MAYBE a woman will see you as more WORTHY- maybe PUSH your Congress to fund FREE College Education like is done in Europe and largely in Canada- Canadians have, on average, 4 children per family while in USA its like 1.9 kid/ family 2 ) Nationalize Healthcare so American Men keep more of their Paycheck 3) Mandatory 18 months paid maternity leave AND Subsidized Child Care : THIS is how SMART European Countries encourage women to have children 4) Get your Congressman to raise the Minimum Wage to $15/hr and bring back more Industry Jobs to America so that more Woman will maybe think your sorry, unemployed, no income, uneducated A** is somehow possibly more able to support her child SO that SHE WANTS TO HAVE YOUR BABY IN other words, to the Uneducated, unemployed men who are being dumped and divorced by WOMEN who think they AREN"T WORTH IT; SHAPE UP And do it WITHOUT ANY SEX from US from here on OUT, because without freedom to choose whether to have your child OR Not- the ONLY ANSWER is NEVER to F'ck YOU EVER- in the 1st place |

False. Obama asked her to retire in 2013, before GOP took control of the Senate in 2014 elections for Jan 2015. |

OH i didnt realize it was political and a president should ask someone to step down. no see this is the bullshit, even with this reasoning you cant lay this at her feet and hers alone. its like saying a pregnancy is alone a womans issue. roe v wade does not lie at the feet of rbg alone. if anything it lays at the feet of white women who voted for trump. f&&& them not her. |

The opinion calls out Lawrence v. Texas as wrongly decided. That's the decision that said Texas's anti-sodomy laws were unconstitutional. |

| Why is it so hard for congress to pass a law protecting abortion rights at the federal level? |

Because Democratic votes are diluted by the constant cheating of the GOP, for one thing. |

The fault clearly falls on the justices who vote to overturn Roe. Not RGB or McConnell. |

Do you know 60 Senators willing to protect women? |

Big difference between one justice saying that in a speech or something, and him saying that in a majority opinion signed onto by 5 justices. |
