"Reagan thought he had a pro-lifer in O’Connor, just as he also thought he had a pro-lifer in Justice Anthony Kennedy, a still greater disappointment."

This is the same guy who slept around in Hollywood, only married Nancy after she got pregnant, and then signed a very liberal abortion law as CA governor. People love him, but he was no saint.
“Reagan thought he had a pro-lifer in O’Connor, just as he also thought he had a pro-lifer in Justice Anthony Kennedy, a still greater disappointment.”
Yeah right...the man legalized abortion in California before Roe vs. Wade. It’s naive to believe he ever became a pro life.
Reagan’s biggest mistake.
p
Before Reagan even considered legalizing abortion in Cali before Roe v Wade, he was told the classic Planned Parenthood lie.....it wasnt a baby, just “masses of protoplasm” and “bunches of cells.”
Abortions would only be done in “rare instances” .... when the life of the mother was at stake.....or pregnancy resulting from rape.
Reagan and the rest of America had no inkling Planned Parenthood....masters
of deceit.....would be celebrating abortion on demand up to nine months today.
Democrats never had to guess where their SCOTUS nominees stand on the issues. The Republicans, on the other hand, had to use stealth nominees in order to get them past a hostile senate.
Republicans are timid.
Sandy can burn with Gristleburg
Not referring to this article only.
Why is it the GOP has to beg, grovel and barely get approval for a SCOTUS nominee after fighting against “are they too biased for conservatism” “are they too much of a Christian zealot” and “are they too far Right to be on the court?” and the old “are they anti-abortion lunatics who will interfere with a woman’s right to choose?”
Then the nominee turns out to be wishy washy and sides with the Dems to be congenial and liked by the other justices.
But...
When was there ever a case of the opposite? A lefty justice stays a lefty all the time, all the years, all the cases.
O’Connor: One of Reagan’s two biggest mistakes!
So was Jane Wyman right?
It is interesting the lefties never stray. Never, even when they are approaching the grave they never stray.
I’d someone to look into that syndrome.
No longer do young people gain knowledge and experience which cause them to be conservatives as they grow old. Now they are gray haired with a tied pony tail and tie died shirts to go with their aging hippie pants and sandals. Still thinking Woodstock is going on.
Saying——
‘If You Are Not a Liberal When You Are Young, You Have No Heart, and If You Are Not a Conservative When Old, You Have No Brain’
bump
At least 4 mistakes, GHW Bush, 2 USSC Justices, and being fooled on abortion.
Is the other one amnesty for illegal aliens?
If so do I win anything?
That saying used to be one of life’s truism’s but as we have devolved into a near Orwellian dystopia the young won’t evolve as they would in the past l fear.
That’s because those on the left are one with the world. While those on the right will not be allowed any positions in Congress or any help to get elected unless they were compromisable.
