Roe v. Wade overturned: Liberal journalists rage at Ruth Bader Ginsburg for not retiring
'Thanks especially to RBG today for making this possible' one writer tweeted about the Supreme Court decision
By Kristine Parks | Fox News
The Supreme Court's decision to overturn Roe v. Wade Friday resulted in meltdowns from many liberal journalists blaming former President Trump and the conservative justices.
However, some in the liberal media actually suggested the late Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg was partly responsible. Taking their grievances to social media, journalists and other media figures slammed the formerly revered liberal icon for not retiring sooner.
Ginsburg died in September of 2020 at 87 years old, leaving a vacancy for President Trump to nominate Justice Amy Coney Barrett to take her place on the Court.
Columnist Scott Feinberg called Ginsburg a "hero" whose decision not to retire "helped lead to the destruction" of Roe v. Wade. "Sadly, this will be a big part of her legacy," he tweeted.

On the other hand, if liberals had actually paid attention to what Ginsburg said about Rv.W, and had fortified the result of that case with legislation, none of this would be a real issue, and the Dobbs case might even have either never arisen, or been dismissed for mootness.

Let the record reflect that Ruth Bader Ginsburg herself, said that Roe v Wade was a flawed ruling. :yowsa:

Very true; which is why she advised that legislation be put in place to make it permanent.

Maybe if Democrats had elected a President with actual leadership ability in 2012 instead of someone who treated living in the White House as if he hit the mega jackpot in the Affirmative Action lottery, they would have been able to push through Garland in 2016.
