New York Times opinion columnist Maureen Dowd wrote a blistering attack on Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito over his leaked draft opinion on the Roe v. Wade ruling.
Dowd’s piece condemned Alito’s opinion as the Puritans'"greatest victory" in 400 years and described him as a"holier-than-thou preacher" focused on reining in"female sexuality."
It then dawned on the columnist:"The two simultaneous emails were a perfect distillation of America’s bizarre duality — our contradictory strains of sexuality and priggishness." "Alito is a familiar type in American literature: the holier-than-thou preacher, so overzealous in his attempts to rein in female sexuality and slap on a scarlet letter that one suspects he must be hiding some dark yearnings of his own," she said.
Alito, Pilkington wrote,"will forever be known as the supreme court justice who destroyed a woman’s right to control her own body and who set the US on a regressive course pointing back to the 17th century."
