Graham: Alito set the right tone in Roe ruling by arguing same-sex marriage, contraception not in jeopardySen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) on Sunday said Justice Samuel Alito set the right tone by writing in an opinion overturning Roe v. Wade that Supreme Court decisions protecting contraception and same-sex marriage are not in jeopardy.
Graham made the remarks during an appearance on Fox News Sunday while noting that he respects Justice Clarence Thomas, who wrote that he wanted to take a look at contraception and same-sex marriage after overturning Roe and abortion protections.
Alito, I think, set the right tone. He said nothing in this decision puts those cases at risk. The reason he decided that Roe v. Wade was wrongly decided is because it deals with the potential for life, the senator said.
Thomas joined conservatives in overturning Roe, but in his concurring opinion, the justice said he wanted to examine contraception and same-sex marriage, both of which are protected by Supreme Court decisions.

And Uncle Clarence showed Alito's words to be bullshit

Obviously Lindsey Graham doesn't have to worry about abortions or contraception.

Or the "marriage" part of same sex marriage.

That birth control has much to do with "potential for life" arguments as well?
