Comments on: Griswold https://whynow.dumka.us/2009/07/07/griswold/ On-line Opinion Magazine...OK, it's a blog Wed, 08 Jul 2009 21:24:36 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=6.4.3 By: Bryan https://whynow.dumka.us/2009/07/07/griswold/comment-page-1/#comment-46795 Wed, 08 Jul 2009 21:24:36 +0000 http://whynow.dumka.us/?p=9969#comment-46795 In reply to Steve Bates.

Steve, that was the oldest post I could find on this site. I’ve been saying it forever, because Griswold is the linchpin for so many other decisions, that altering it would push us back to the “good old days” of the Republican theocracy of the 1950s when moral purity was necessary to defeat the godless Communists.

Most people don’t understand that the studio was fined for leaving the line “Frankly my dear, I don’t give a damn!” in the released version of GWTW.

The Taliban have nothing on the Republican Congress under Eisenhower.

And the target of anti-choice zealots has been, not abortion per se, but privacy, and yes, we’ve known that, too. My first inkling that the theocrats were targeting not just abortion but contraception (and indeed privacy in general) came to me about 15 years ago from a musician colleague, a serious hardcore radical Catholic, who even had some sort of note on the bathroom door in his house informing the occupant how to latch it to protect “your dubiously constitutionally derived right of privacy.” IOW, he was convinced there is no such right.

Crazy? yes. Dangerous? yes. Ignore these people at your personal peril.
