He did not go after Roe vs, Wade or prayer in school, and the fact that Nancy planned his schedule with the help of her house astrologer (and did not even try to hide the fact) spoke volumes about his attitude toward the religious right.

To repeat myself: he kept the majority of promises. And on many of his anti-choice actions he was blocked by Congress. Still, he managed to impose the global gag order on family planning. He wanted Bork, Rehnquist was expected to be a conservative opposed to abortion (among other things), Scalia is his appointment. Yes, he brought in Kennedy, but it was on the heels of losing both on Bork and on Ginsburg (Douglas).
