Clinical psychologist Dr. Katherine Kuhlman stopped by The Joe Pags Show this week to discuss the collective liberal meltdown over Roe V Wade; saying progressives have suffered a severe psychological setback over an impending Supreme Court decision.
“Everybody seems to be lying about Roe V Wade. Those of us who understand it, we know this will not make abortion illegal,” said Joe ‘Pags’ Pagliarulo. “You know that they’re lying about it. How do you get the real truth out there?”
“People need to read-in to the facts of what they’re looking at,” said Kuhlman. “The left has an ideology and they kick and scream and then it becomes group think. The people have no idea what they’re rooting against. They have no clue.”
“They haven’t read Roe V Wade. They haven’t read the leak. Unless you’ve read both of those, your opinion means nothing to me,” she added.
Watch the discussion above.
I have read both the Roe decision and the recent Supreme Court leak. The leaked draft document indicates the court’s intention to overturn Roe v. Wade. There is no confusion; that’s what it says. This Supreme Court WILL eventually overturn Roe, I have no doubt, which punts the abortion decision back to the individual states. There are currently 12 states that have trigger laws which will ban abortion once Roe is overturned, and many states that have pre-Roe laws banning abortion that will take effect. In all, it is likely that 26 states will ban abortion. There are also states considering legislation to outlaw citizens from obtaining an abortion in others states, prosecuting the doctors (from those other states) and their clients once they return.
At its heart, the Roe decision is one of privacy. Private medical decisions made by individuals and their doctors should not be subjected to government oversight. I agree with the Roe decision, and the fact that an abortion should not take place after the first trimester without a legitimate medical need. Because it is a privacy decision, overturning Roe will put some birth control options at risk, with some states already considering laws to restrict or completely ban them (see Griswold v. Connecticut). The rights of homosexual individuals will be put at risk (see Lawrence v. Texas). And same-sex marriage will most likely be punted back to the states as well (see Obergefell v. Hodges).
Do you really want the government invading your bedroom? Do you want a government official making moral decisions for you? If you don’t agree with abortion, then don’t have one. Don’t agree with homosexuals or gay marriage? Don’t have gay sex or get gay married. It’s that simple. The conservatives are the ones that have been having a meltdown for almost 50 years now, trying to control how other people live their lives.
