Pro-lifers and unborn babies scored a major victory today with the Supreme Court’s Dobbs decision, which effectively overturns Roe v. Wade.
Americans — and conservative Supreme Court Justices — are now bracing for the inevitable backlash, likely involving a great deal of violence, from pro-abortion activists. What could really go a long way right now is for a respected liberal leader to pour ice water on the flames being set around the country over this. Former President Barack Obama is a respected liberal leader. Could he be the man for the job?
Nope:
Today, the Supreme Court not only reversed nearly 50 years of precedent, it relegated the most intensely personal decision someone can make to the whims of politicians and ideologues—attacking the essential freedoms of millions of Americans.

Are the terrorists behind “Ruth Sent Us” and “Jane’s Revenge” not ideologues attacking the essential freedoms of millions of Americans who believe in the unborn’s right to life? They not only don’t care if people get hurt or killed, but they actively encourage it. A man tried to assassinated Justice Brett Kavanaugh before the decision was even handed down. Now that we actually have the decision, six Supreme Court Justices have targets on their backs. Those justices didn’t side with the ideologues, but that’s exactly what Obama’s doing.
Across the country, states have already passed bills restricting choice. If you're looking for ways to respond, @PPFA, @USOWomen, and many other groups have been sounding the alarm on this issue for years—and will continue to be on the front lines of this fight. pic.twitter.com/PpXBEcbL2S

For more than a month, we’ve known this day was coming—but that doesn’t make it any less devastating. Here are my thoughts from when we first saw the draft ruling: https://t.co/aegHc7AoTm

We’ve known for more than a month because someone leaked it and almost got Supreme Court Justices killed.
And as for the “devastating” part … for whom, exactly, is it devastating, sir? Not for the countless unborn children who will now have a chance at life. Not for the people who believe that those countless unborn children should have a shot at life. Not for the women who — despite what Jessica Valenti may tell you — will still have places to go for elective abortions.
No, this is only “devastating” for the people who celebrate the culture of death that is the pro-abortion culture.

What kind of POS has a pre planned statement defending the murder of innocent babies? https://t.co/5nsLylc6Eo

It’s worth noting, though, that some pro-aborts out there aren’t super impressed with Obama’s response to the ruling:
Obama promised to sign The Freedom Of Choice Act, but never did.
The legislation would have made abortion rights government policy.

You’ve known this day was coming…which is exactly why you were playing nice with RBG rather than pushing her to retire. Breakfast is served. Unfortunately, na all of us go chop am.
