May 26, 2022 As most everyone knows, a draft Supreme Court opinion authored by Samuel Alito that overturned Roe v. Wade has created a groundswell of opposition and protests. This opposition has been, and continues to be, mostly politically driven. Tellingly, the hysteria flows more strongly in a deep blue state like Connecticut where abortion rights are not in any danger. Being a politician can be hard, trying to always walk the line of trying to appear decisive while being careful to not actually be decisive. But with Roe, politicians here, especially those that are statewide, only have to worry whether their vocal support of women’s freedoms are stronger than the next politician’s. Its political pandering at its most celebrated. Adoring interest groupies/donors and media make this pandering possible.
