Unsound of the Ultrasound 4

Headline from today’s local rag, referring to one of the anti-abortion bills in the state legislature:

‘Personhood’ bill is medically unsound, some doctors say

Of course the bill is medically unsound.

It has nothing to do with medicine and everything to do with the skeevy Republican obsession with the sex lives of persons to whom they haven’t even been introduced.

Afterthought:

Then there’s the mandatory ultrasound thing.

A hand up every skirt. What a platform!

    I always underestimate the basic indecency of the modern GOP. Here some white crazy men decide they’re going to alienate all women across the country with a law they’d like that stipulates having a probe inserted under what is already a terrible circumstance for women. You can’t even talk with people like this.

    I am surprised that more persons haven’t commented on the perverted nature of it all.  

    It would not be an exaggeration to say that, in their eyes, or at least in their tactics, women are “breeders” before they are persons.

    They get skin-crawlingly skeevier with every turn.

    It’s estimated that 50 percent of all human conceptions end in spontaneous abortion, usually without a woman even realizing that she was pregnant. 10 to 20 percent of known pregnancies end in miscarriage.  I wonder what kind of “unintended consequences” the “personhood” legislation will create if it makes it into law and how much taxpayer money will be wasted by the state defending this piece of trash when it’s contested in court as unconstitutional.

    Bill, do not attempt to confuse the Republican Party with science.  They don’t hold with none of that new-fangled scientific-like stuff.
