Have You Noticed How Many Anti-Choice Folks Keep Trying To Say That
Edited on Mon Jul-25-05 09:37 AM by DistressedAmerican
Roberts poses no threat to (quoting Roberts The "wrongly decided") Roe V. Wade?

Have you noticed how many of them have lined up to support him publicly?

We are supposed to believe that bullshit! Do they think we are fucking stupid?

Anyone that believes these asshats when they say that Roberts does not oppose Roe v. Wade personally is a fucking idiot.

Anyone that claims he only wrote all of those anti-choice agruments and decisions just because he was doing his job for anti-choice clients is badly deluded or simply lying though their teeth.

Anyone that claims that there is such as thing as a "feminist for life" is either nuts or deliberately lying to stop opposition to the guy.

DUers that are supporting that line most likely do not belong here at all. Beware trolls.

I will never trust a word that comes out of their sick, twisted lying mouths! If you do, I feel sorry for you!

END OF RANT...

1. They argue, "as far as you know, Roberts won't overturn Roe".
"And no, he can't tell you whether he will or won't."

But you certainly get the feeling THEY are satisfied.

2. You have every reason to be distressed
and it is quite comical for them to forward that line. Why would (pro-life?) constitution haters who would kill to overturn roe v wade vociferously support john roberts and say out of the other side of their serpentine head that he is not threat to that case? Quitre a chuckle. And dog fucker santorum, the greatest embarrassment ever to the state of Pennsylvania is saying that robert's wife's activities don't come into play. Hillarious.

34. New/Old rule: Anyone Bush picks is a liar and a fraud and a destroyer
Without a doubt. By definition. And anyone who uses these soft talking points is, to use the language of those they are serving by doing this, fellow travelers.

11. Ahhh, so let me get this straight...
Bush went out of his way to find someone that's ambivalent on the abortion issue, eh? I got it.

Oh, and didn't I hear they found a ton of weapons--nuclear missiles, yellowcake, anthrax, etc.--this morning all over Baghdad?

13. When abortions are outlawed...
only outlaws will have abortions! (Hey, if it works for guns, why not abortions?) I am getting SO discouraged about this country. We seem to be running a race with the Islamic fundamentalists to see who can turn back the clock the fastest!

14. Just a quick point
I believe most feminists are for life. I don't believe right wingers, like Mrs. Roberts, co-opting the word feminist and falsely claiming to be "pro-life" because she wants the government to tell women what to do with their bodies are either feminists or for life.

Here are two better names for Mrs. Roberts group:
Women Against Women's Health
Women Who Best Exemplify What Rick Santorum Thinks Women Should Be Like

20. Roe V Wade will not be overturned
However, abortion rights may get chiseled away at for sure. If they make it a states rights issue, women with unwanted pregnancies will be more than welcome to my home state of California, which will always make it available because most of our politicians understand that it is not their role to force anyone to have a baby.

You are right that it will start with things like Parental Notification. But, I disagree that it will end there.

27. Roberts' vote changes the majority from 6-3 to 5-4.
It's the next justice who replaces a moderate (there are no liberals on the court) that would overturn RvW.

But he could change any number of other abortion rulings that were 5-4 to 4-5 -- things like parental notification, funding, accessibiltiy. In that way, he would chip away at the right, without undermining it completely. And you can be sure that he would vote to overturn it if the vote came up.

Let's not forget that abortion is but one issue, and he would be the deciding vote on many other issues concerning the environment, corporate responsibility, etc., that have been 5-4 till now.

Approving him would be a disaster.

24. It's a LONG way to California...
from Mississippi and other "righteous" states most likely to criminalize abortion. Closer to Mexico, or the French overseas territories in the Caribbean. Surely France won't outlaw abortion!

Hint-- not very likely.

30. Wife: Anti-choice "feminist", sure, like Bush is compassionate conservativ
Her BS: 'I am a feminist. Yeah right. Her real thoughts: but I want to outlaw reproductive decisions women might make, since that is truly up to the patriarchy (the Pope). (probably including birth control).

Just another of those women who follow the will of guys and there are plenty of this kind. Pukingly horrible. That is the most unnattractive type of female that exists.

33. "DUers that are supporting that line": there are plenty around they should
go take a flying leap. Stuff like "drop it, he will be confirmed, move on to another issue". Stuff like" I am a feminist, but pro-life, and whats wrong with that/" (softening up type stuff). Bull-fucking shit.

There are two main issues that absofuckinlutely need to be dealt with without equivocation right now: this asshole Roberts and the Iraq war, specifically getting out. If people here can't see this is the road to ruin--approaching the cliff type stuff, they need their heads examined.
