Barack, Michelle Obama Issue Statement on Roe v. Wade Draft Opinion: 'A Blow Not Just to Women'
People ^ | 5/4/2022 | Virginia Chamlee

Casey — unraveling the national right to access abortion — Barack and Michelle Obama said the move would "relegate the most intensely personal decision someone can make to the whims of politicians and ideologues."

"The consequences of this decision would be a blow not just to women, but to all of us who believe that in a free society, there are limits to how much the government can encroach on our personal lives," the former president, 60, and first lady, 58, said in their joint statement on Tuesday.

Hit it and quit it may become a costlier and lifetime commitment.

Okay Chumlee. What the hell is a “national right to an abortion”? I don’t know because I don’t do drugs.

'there are limits to how much the government can encroach on our personal lives,'

These people had no problem when the Supremes took the issue out of the venues where Americans could actually VOTE on it - (you know, that 'democracy' thing? - and now they demonize the notion of putting it back there, where every American can have a say in it.

They just want to be dictators, and for all of us to live in THEIR dictatorship.
