<p><strong>Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg</strong> has been critical of Roe, saying <em>“Women were lobbying around [the abortion] issue.  The Supreme Court stopped all that by deeming every law – even the most liberal – as unconstitutional.  That seemed to me not the way courts general work.  Roe v. Wade ventured too far in the change it ordered and presented an incomplete justification for its action.&#8221;</em></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>“<em>…the fetus…never enjoyed his ‘day in court.’  The Supreme Court had every opportunity to hear arguments [that] the fetus was a ‘constitutional person’ [whose life was therefore protected].  However, the Court chose not to take advantage of this occasion.</em>”  – <strong>John D.
