Babies are supposed to be born to rich white parents... who are selfish enough to vote Republican.

"Associates" have misdemeanor convictions. "Team Members" are rap-sheet virgins.

It's <i>almost</i> as if the GOP simply grabbed onto some issue with both fists solely for the political boosts that it would give!

Just because all of their other planks don't seem to really be all that compatible with 'every babby, no exceptions' doesn't mean they can't exploit voters who make their decisions based on a single issue. Because duh, single issue!

You can tell those voters anything, even if it isn't true! What could be more perfect?

I like the part where "she may be using her abortions as a way to gain political favor with Democratic voters." Aha! So <i>that's</i> why Kerry lost in '04!

So a boob talks like a rube about a tube. Some fun.

Is this the same Cheryl Sullenger who spent two years in prison for conspiring to blow up a clinic? Looks like it. It's heartening that the NRO believes in helping the rehabilitation of ex-cons by giving them a platform.

“It would be disturbing to think that she may be using her abortions as a way to gain political favor with Democratic voters,” Sullenger added.

Yes, it would certainly be disturbing if anybody was enough of a pig-ignorant douchebag to think <i>that.</i> Good thing it hasn't occurred to anybody -- right, Cheryl?

So sorry. I've known a couple of people who have had ectopic pregnancies and they were awful, especially since the baby was wanted. What the "senior policy analyst" left off is that tubal pregnancies are never viable for the fetus and untreated, have a serious mortality rate for the mother.

That's a situation that can get very weird indeed: <a href="http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Lithopedion" target="_blank">" rel="nofollow noopener" title="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lithopedion">http://en.wikipedia.org/wik...

On the bright side, lithopedion is a killer Scrabble word.

It would be <strike>distrubing</strike> <strike>surprising</strike> <strike>revolting</strike> entirely predictable that Republicans would use Davis' abortions for political purposes.

"We simply do not know the circumstances of [insert bullshit story you want your knuckledragging followers to believe.]"

That Faux News slander technique never gets old, does it?

On the bright side, I'm guessing that Sullenger is <a href="https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch\?v=MOgYypO-_mc" target="_blank">not likely to become a Faux Newsbabe. </a>

You don't get any more pro-life than that.

That 10-pound tumor on the top of Cheryl Sullenger's neck is becoming even more disturbing. Not quite sentient, but disturbing nonetheless.
