I think we need a thread of quotes from liberals explaining why Roe v Wade was such a horrible decision…

“A heavy-handed judicial intervention [that] was difficult to justify and appears to have provoked, not resolved, conflict."

-Ruth Bader Ginsburg "I strongly support a woman's right to choose but Roe vs. Wade was a disaster," “it was the wrong place for the Supreme Court to go,” and “there’s no clear governing constitutional principle in Roe v. Wade.”

-Alan Dershowitz, Constitutional lawyer and Harvard Professor

I asked a large group of NICU nurses in online forum what they thought about Sotomayor saying only a gross minority of doctors believe fetal pain exists before 24-25 weeks.

Here’s what they said.

Just a little thread on what being short staffed in the NICU is like…

Get to the unit at 0630 (too early to clock in) a few other nurses are there early. Putting my lunch in the fridge when the charge nurse comes in & begs us to clock in early because 3 admits are on the way. Already minus 8 nurses on a 60 bed unit which means every nurse with stable babies will have 4 patients and the nurses with critical babies will have 3. That’s not safe. Walk to my area and there’s no time to sit for report because 2 babies just arrived at the same time.

In case the pro-choice didn’t realize it, there have been numerous resources for moms and moms-to-be in Texas:

Texas women in need of health care/insurance assistance there is the Texas Medicaid program.

benefits.gov/benefit/1640 Texas women who don’t qualify for the Texas Medicaid program, but still need health insurance, can get similar coverage through the CHIP Perinatal program.
