    One great advantage of @DianeFeinstein 's advanced age is that she is one of the few people left in public life who remembers when abortion was illegal. She vividly recaptures of the horror of those days for women.

        That is so sad, and so true. It is inconceivable both to those advocating outlawing abortion that abortions would continue even if states could ban or severely limit -- they will just be very, very unsafe

        Here is my harrowing interview with a #LosAngeles doctor who worked in a "septic abortion" ward back when abortion was dangerous and illegal. It shaped his career and made him a respected ob-gyn and professor:http://articles.latimes.com/2003/jan/21/local/me-patt21 …

        Thank you. Many yrs ago when I worked as a counselor at an abortion clinic, I said to my evangelical aunt, “If abortion is illegal, women will die.” Her response? “Maybe they ought to die if they’re going to kill their baby.” I am still astounded.

        ...I come from an era where metal knitting needles and wire coat hangers had other tragic uses and girls who became pregnant were banned from public schools and demonized while the boys who got them pregnant were quietly congratulated by the other boys for 'scoring'. #NeverAgain

        Is there a lack of education, ignorance.or just scare tactics. If Roe/Wade was over turned, there would not be "black market abortions"! The point is Tax Payers should not be funding them. Get the Fed Govt out of the biz and let states legislate.

        You need to check the facts. It wasn't a case of abortions just being not covered but it actually being illegal. Although women were rarely prosecuted the doctors doing the procedures were.

        When you have your pundit chats about today's proceedings, I hope you'll note that it isn't just a "Dems are obstructing OH MY" -- Sen Grassley has been obstructing by not using regular order & rushing the nom by an unindicted co-conspirator & keeping 90%+ of WH records hidden.

        They need the docs to prove BK lied in earlier testimony. That's the argument they should be making. They're not hiding the docs b/c of Roe... everyone knows he'll vote to end Roe.

        Yes, we need experience. But common sense experience and fairness. These people (r's) are not fair. Kavanagh should offer the time for dems to go thru the paperwork instead of hiding behind Grassley, Hatch, Trump, etc. He wants this job so bad. It's scary.

        I fear that not enough people realize what overturning Roe means. Like, literally what it means for abortion to be illegal. And make no mistake, this congress will move to legislate *against* states allowing it anywhere. Devastating.

        I personally for myself couldn't have an abortion. However I believe in a woman's right to choose! My mother told me horror stories of friends of hers that were maimed for life or died because of "back alley " abortions!

        Same here! Once I had my son and saw the ultrasound images and you for me I could never. However it should be a woman's Choice. It is her body that has to go through it.
