Comments on: 36 Years of Roe v. Wade http://www.feministe.us/blog/archives/2009/01/15/36-years-of-roe-v-wade/ In defense of the sanctimonious women's studies set.

The entire drive by the Religious Right and their GOP lickspittles in Congress for the first 5 years of the Bush presidency to limit access to birth control, of all forms, has been one of the greatest travesties in US history. I'm celebrating Roe XXXVI with a pint of ice cream tonight knowing that my nieces and cousins will have cjhoices that their grandmothers didn't have.

Wade, has anyone else seen those "commercials" on tv with Norma McCorvey ("Jane Roe") basically saying she regrets it all and the only way to go is pro-life? Something about "natrual conception to natural birth". I've been seeing them EVERY NIGHT on tv lately. I've been too squicked out to google it, but the "natural conception" bit made me squirm. Anti-contraception, perhaps? Ugh, one day I'll actually google it. Speaking of Roe v.
