Have The Nine Fools Handed November to Real Americans?

The long term effects of overturning Roe are likely to benefit the Democrats, for the same reason that Roe benefited the Republicans.

Roe was decided in 1973, when abortion was becoming a popular operation. By removing abortion rights from democratic politics the Supreme Court enabled Christian conservatives to imagine that they belonged to a "moral majority" that was thwarted by a powerful but small minority of "secular humanists."

The Roe decision led to the creation of the religious right. This was a movement of largely lower middle class, non college educated, whites. These benefited from the economic reforms of the New Deal. Most of them knew it. Nevertheless, they began voting Republican because of social issues, especially their opposition to abortion.

The Roe decision meant that pro abortion Republicans could continue to vote Republican, knowing that the issue was beyond the range of democratic politics.

Now that abortion is again a democratic issue most states will legalize it. A few states will specifically legalize it in their constitutions. Christian conservatives will learn that they do not form part of a moral majority, but a dwindling minority. Some will vote Democrat to defend economic programs that benefit them. Others will retreat from politics and resume their passive wait for the Second Coming of Christ. The Republican Party will lose a constituency that has been important for electoral victories.
 
Not a chance. Young people don’t vote. They let old people decide their futures for them! OK Boomer indeed!!

Roe did not benefit the Republicans. It benefitted those who found outright racist Eugenics to be politically implausible and put their weight behind the abortion movement to accomplish their goals which fall in large part on POC and other disfavored minority groups which people like Margaret Sanger and Woodrow Wilson despised.
 
The american taliban have taken over the shithole once known as the united states. They ban books, take away women's rights and celebrate gun violence. Can't wait for them to bring back slavery!
 
When you look at the usa today its obvious that giving women rights didnt work out.

maybe this will be for the best.
 
I like women who wear dresses, can cook and clean and defer to my leadership, always have.

FINALLY! The pendulum is returning to the center.
They knew their place and knew that if they got out of line they were going to "walk into a door" or some other silly accident that results in a black eye.

justice roberts... not an actual dissenter; the three dem judges were the only dissenters
In a mealy-mouthed concurrence, he bemoans that the Court didn’t just nix the viability line, but went all the way on abortion rights. Not because he disagrees with the content of the decision — he calls it “thoughtful and thorough” — but because, he says, demolishing Roe is unnecessary to decide the case centered on a 15-week abortion ban out of Mississippi.

He spares no words for the plight of women now forced to give birth against their will, or of the dangers to other related constitutional rights. His uneasiness is linked solely to perception of the Court, and the shockwave the decision will send through the legal world.

“The Court’s decision to overrule Roe and Casey is a serious jolt to the legal system—regardless of how you view those cases,” he writes. “A narrower decision rejecting the misguided viability line would be markedly less unsettling, and nothing more is needed to decide this case.”

I’ve seen plenty of polls since the Dobbs draft was leaked. Nothing indicates a change in the direction the wind are blowing. And in Texas, which recently enacted the toughest abortion law in the US, Hispanics are shifting to the GOP. Red Team just flipped a Dem seat earlier this month in a special election.

I am in favor of eugenics. Right now those with IQ's below 100 are more prolific than those with IQ's above 100. While this is happening, computer technology and automation are eliminating jobs that can be learned by those with IQ's below 100. If current trends continue a growing percentage of the human population will be incapable of doing anything useful for a living.

whereas the likes of gov. kay ivey (Al.) and other backwards states are praisin' jeebus, implementing the strictest abortion bans and saying they're making their states 'safe havens' for unborn babies. *pukesville* Of course, once they're born then... yanno, fuck 'em

Roe benefited Republicans in a major way and forced them to form an unholy alliance that really makes no logical sense outside being a hate group with little agenda. The abortions falling primarily on minorities is a failure of America, but its an intentional failure. There is a reason why the Right fights everything from Afirmative Action to cheaper college. Anything that would help get people out of the ghetto is something the Right has to fight against.

We get it, you're a racist piece of shit. In addition to having such a poor understanding of how the economy works the reality is that "smart" people are never going to be needed in the kinds of numbers it would take to keep people employed. The current trend has, and always has had to do with improvements in technology. We're just so fucking stupid we've believed that work is a good thing.

New England needs to secede from the US - fuck these white trash trailer park morons. We don’t need them and we don’t want them.

You think can fool everyone between say you and Florida into joining the coalition. We can blocade the fuckers and invite Cuba in from the cold at the same time.
 
face it, the Democrats are out in November. It will have nothing to do with Roe.
This assessment is almost certainly correct. The election will be decided on economics and will hurt the D's a lot.

Abortion as a federal issue is dead; however I expect that this will energise women in state politics- and not only with respect to this issue. I think that rightwingers will come to rue the day they decided to attack the "Monstrous Regiment."
 
"It's the economy, stupid-" but I predict that the anger that over half the country is feeling now- emphasis on OVER HALF- is palpable and real.

Too soon to see any benefit to the democrats, but in 2024 when the economy rebounds, watch out- and I say this with some trepidation because I'd really rather not see Biden in there for another term (unless, of course, the alternative is much worse, which frankly, it probably will be.)
 
Abortion was primarily a dead issue I'm pretty sure they just resurrected that one. I just don't think that its going to be enough to push anybody over the finish line. That just isn't the way that its gonna go.

The reality is that its the economy which really shows how stupid the American public is. There are times when you can point to the economy and draw a straight line to how people SHOULD be voting but it takes so long to get something through Congress, through whatever other government entities and companies and down to the individual people. If we were seeing particularly strong results this early it would really be something that Trump was primarily responsible for. The last six, seven months belong to Biden. But the rest wouldn't even be his triumphs.

It appears that you never why God made cast iron skillets. To whop the abuser upside the head when he is asleep.
