    You can say the same for Ginsburg, Sotomayer, and Kagan.

    seriously, what liberal woman is going to vote with the conservatives on this issue?

    alito, thomas, and roberts have a long history of being on the wrong side of women's rights.

    I imagine that Roberts dissented just to save face with the GOP

    Good news!
    It does concern me that the SCOTUS always has such split decisions though. It tells me that too many of them aren't doing their jobs the way they are supposed to and in good faith.

    That is something that bugs me too. It may mean people are voting on their personal beliefs and what they want to happen, or there is a lot of gray area in the laws.
