Did You Know: Joe Biden Voted to Overturn Roe V. Wade in 1982
Did you know that?
President Biden lamented the Supreme Court’s decision to overturn Roe V Wade Friday despite calling for similar action back in 1982. “I don’t like the Supreme Court decision on abortion. I think it went too far,” he had told the Washingtonian magazine in 1974.
He held the same views a decade later in 1982 when he signed a constitutional amendment that would allow individual states to overturn Roe v. Wade and make their own decisions about abortions, as the current expected ruling would do.
In the nascent days of his political career, Joe Biden had disapproved of the Roe v Wade ruling by the US Supreme Court and said women did not have “the sole right to say what should happen” to their bodies. By today’s standard, he would be a bigot who wanted to kill women.
The illegitimate commander-in-chief was among those in the past few week sternly decrying the leaked draft opinion that suggested the high court was poised to overturn the 1973 ruling that legalized abortion nationwide. But what changed his mind? Money, I think we all know he will drift whichever way the wind blows for a few bucks in his pocket.
“I’m probably a victim, or a product, however you want to phrase it, of my background,” the phony Roman Catholic future illegitimate president said at the time.
The Times said that Biden called it “the single most difficult vote I’ve cast as a US senator.”
However, he was unsure he had “a right to impose” his views on an issue that would affect the nation, the Times noted.
