GINSBURG THOUGHT ROE WAS TO RID UNDESIRABLES!!!
In a news article soon to be published in the New York Times magazine, Sunday, July 12th, 2009, Ruth Bader Ginsuburg is quoted, " the impression that legalizing abortion with the 1973 Roe v. Wade case would eliminate populations that we don't want to have too many of." Perhaps Justice Ginsburg needs to know you never end your sentence with a preposition. It can't be diagrammed.
Justice Ginsburg is a 16 year Supreme Court Justice and has always voted to uphold unrestricted abortion. In response to the query of if she were a lawyer again, what would she want to accomplish as a future feminist legal agenda, Ginsburg responded, "reproductive choice has to be straightened out. There will never be a woman of means without choice anymore. She goes on to say that her concern was the upholding of the Hyde Amendment, which forbids the use of Medicaid money for abortions. "Frankly I had thought that at the time Roe was decided, there was concern about population growth and particularly growth in populations that we don't want to have too many of. She thought that as a result of Roe, Medicaid would be set up for the funding of abortion for poor women, however some people felt that would risk coercing women into having abortions when they didn't really want them."
The Justice further stated she is opposed to waiting periods and favors the use of the morning- after-pill. She is also opposed to returning the abortion battle to the states because she is against all restrictions.
I wonder if Justice Ginsburg new Margaret Sanger?
