ABC News: ‘All-Male Majority’ of Supreme Court Overturning Roe v. Wade ‘Would Not Be Legitimate’
Washington Free Beacon ^ | 09/28/18

Posted on 09/29/2018 12:46:08 PM PDT by Liberty7732

ABC News chief foreign correspondent Terry Moran said Friday that it would "not be a legitimate action" for an "all-male majority" of the Supreme Court to overturn the landmark Roe v. Wade decision.

"Overturning Roe vs. Wade by an all-male majority, two of whom have had credible accusations of sexual misconduct lodged against them, would not be a legitimate action," Moran said on ABC, in a clip flagged by NewsBusters.

Moran was discussing what would happen to the nation's highest court if the Senate confirms Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh, who he referenced in his comment along with Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas.

The Supreme Court that handed that ruling down was entirely male.

Who’s this moron? Seriously, this illustrates the absurdity of the leftist argument that gender is fluid and ambiguous. You can’t have it both ways. If gender is whatever its possessor believes it to be, can we even be sexist anymore?

So here we go.

Actions taken by the Supreme Court will.be deemed improper and illegitimate, if such actions are taken by members who do not belong to a recognized grievance group.

This is where we are, per liberal criteria.

Is Terry Moron aware that Roe’s 7 justices in the majority opinion were all male? How was that legitimate? In any case, leftists like him would denounce overturning Roe even if the entire SCOTUS were women, so who cares?

Assuming we hold the Senate, I suspect Amy Coney Barrett will be the replacement for Thomas when he retires (or when buzzy finally kicks off). Problem solved.

Nonsense, of course, but I would wait until Ann Barrett is on the court and make it a 6-3 decision with a female vote. It would avoid a lot of trouble.

I wonder how many times she's assaulted men, or organized gang rapes ?

To date...and I admit I might have missed it, but I haven’t heard anyone talking about abolishing Roe v. Wade but the people who are speculating that it might happen.

I haven’t heard any official threaten to do it, nor any SCOTUS member.

This is a “the sky is falling” issue, designed to invoke panic in the baby killers out there.

Actually, it would be completely legitimate.

” two of whom have had credible accusations....”
Obviously talking about Clarence Thomas. They never forget. The man they want to get is always considered guilty. They will continue the high-tech lynching for years to come. They will always refer to Clarence Thomas in reference to anita hill’s lies.

So it’s not over with Kavanaugh. It will never be over with these people.

Who didn’t see this coming?

Following this line of “reasoning,” no decision handed down by the Supreme Court is legitimate as the majority has always been male.

White males at that.

It would just go to the states, the Supreme Court would do nothing more.

Given the actions of the Leftist Salem-ites why would we want ALL WOMEN to make any decisions? They are the *Elizabeth Hubbards of 2018.

*teenage girl accusing people of being witches, Salem witch trials

Don’t you love how they throw the word ‘legitimate” around, like they’re the ones with the moral or legal authority to define what that means?

Who the HELL is Terry Moran?

What these jackholes don’t get is they aren’t the moral authorities around here, and even if someone was, it certainly wouldn’t be THEM.
