Roe v. Wade: 35th Anniversary
From The Blogging of the President: 2004:
All across the country this weekend there were rallies to celebrate the 32nd anniversary of Roe v. Wade. That number, 32, is significant. Because it means that for the part of the population most affected by the erosion of Roe's power — young women (and men) in their teens, twenties and thirties — Roe has always been there. It is taken for granted. The loss of its protection, and the practical and symbolic consequences of such a loss, are just not imaginable to most of them.
