  1. Although this United States Supreme Court judge is now deceased, words from her book live on. From the book … My Own Words … author … RUTH BADER GINSBURG. Whether you are a Christian, or an Atheist … you better think hard and long, as you close one clinic after another … in the pretense that it protects “babies.” The lives of women are at stake here, and they are the lives of your mothers, daughters, aunts, friends … and even grandmothers. Then she made a point, nowhere addressed in the Breyer opinion, but embedded in the memories of women old enough to remember the days when abortion was illegal: “When a State severely limits access to safe and legal procedures, women in desperate circumstances may resort to unlicensed rogue practitioners, faute de mieux, at great risk to their health and safety.” (Later speaking with a reporter, she was blunt about the law’s purpose: “It seemed to me it was a sham to pretend this was about a woman’s health” rather than about making it harder to obtain an abortion.)

  2. John McCain played the same type of double-talking politics as did Donald Trump when “he” needed the antiabortion votes from the evangelicals. From the program on Television titled "Jesus Politics" ...In 1999, a year before his first speech for the White House, John McCain told the San Francisco Chronicle that he did not see a need in the near future to overturn Roe v Wade. He repeated his position on CNN. John McCain verbatim … "We all know, and it's obvious, that if we repeal Roe v Wade, tomorrow, thousands of young women will be performing illegal and dangerous operations." In 2008, in the South Carolina primaries, the senator said something quite different … John McCain verbatim ... "I do not support Roe v Wade. It should be overturned."
