He probably didn't know what hit him. Just like the Republicans don't seem to know then they're also getting hit on the head with votes.

Tsch. If Gov. Perry <i>really</i> wanted to prevent women from being exposed to any more abortion-mill horror stories, he could do it very easily: stop teaching females to read.

Where are these headlines of which Rick Perry speaks? Newsmax doesn't count.

<i>"...abortion-mill horror stories..."</i>

I call bullshit. The Abortionplex has an exemplary record.

During the town hall and other meetings before Obamacare/ACA was passed, people would speak of their own health insurance horror stories -- getting dropped mid-treatment, bankruptcy, family members dying, and so forth. Republicans said these were outliers (or just liars) that did not represent how well the insurance/medical complex worked.

When it comes to punishing women for being reproductive, outliers ("Gosnell") set the standard.

I'm stumped. It's the one <i>without</i> vaginal ultrasound probes.

I suppose "yay" sort of, but geezus Texas! You know this is only going to make things difficult for low income women, as wealthy Jena Bush types will find ways around the law when necessary. The math: rich girl with unwanted pregnancy = spirited lass and a bit of youthful indiscretion; poor girl knocked up = slutty slut gets what she deserves

I've wondered why some entrepreneur hasn't set up an Abortionplex near an airport.

Now it’s off to the Supreme Court. I wonder how that will turn out? 5/4 or 4/5?

Shucks, won't play for me. I'm outside of the US right now, so likely the issue
