2. Done.
P.S. All women, whether they be Republican or Democrat, should hate GWB for nominating this idiot. They are going to set us back in time 100 years.

4. "As a woman, I refuse to move to the back of the bus"
who said that here the other day? Whenever anyone mentions Roe to me, that's what I have been saying for the past several days. It's my new mantra.

5. An excellent way to frame possible loss of hard won reproductive rights.
Although some have said Alito would make the votes for overturning Roe v. Wade the same as the original vote, 5-4, it is a direction we cannot afford to take.

Who knows if or when Shrub will get the opportunity to appoint another Supreme Court justice in the next three plus years.

10. Many feel Roberts would vote to overturn Roe, if given the opportunity,
Edited on Mon Oct-31-05 03:08 PM by flpoljunkie
and would be joined by Thomas, Scalito, and Alito, if confirmed--which would make the vote 5-4.

For me, overturning Roe would return us to the days of back alley abortions. This would be a tragedy for women's reproductive rights.
