Roe is not safe, she is on the operating table
Edited on Tue Jan-31-06 01:45 PM by jsamuel
All those 5/4 votes to save parts of Roe are gone. Roe itself is still ok, but she will soon be missing an arm or a leg. Maybe if it is bad enough, she will be left brain dead on the table as an empty shell and the Republicans will use her to say that, "See she is still alive!"

1. Do you think the fundies will settle for that?
I think they will go for the jugular and rip the life right out.

3. No, they won't, that is my point. Even after gutting Roe, the Republicans
will treat it like Terry Shiavo and still act like it is alive so they can have their outlawed abortion, but still use it for political points by saying it is still legal.

Click on any state. Example:

Ohio
Grade: F
91 percent of Ohio counties have no abortion provider

6. exactly right
Those who think RvW is safe don't seem to understand that chipping away at reproductive rights is just as bad.
