Because when legislation concerning men’s bodies is *obviously* silly, satirical and a waste of time, legislation concerning women’s bodies must be treated with the greatest deference and respect for religious freedom and women’s *protection*, donchaknow?

Because they are for smaller government?

Phyllis Kahn, who tried the Viagra amendment, has been doing this for years. Almost 10 years ago, she introduced a “person’s right to know” act that would have required extensive paperwork prior to any act of coitus.

In reply to noastronomer.

Another way to frame things would be –

All Still-births and spontainious miscarriages are – God-induced abortions – from a God that has induced jundreds of 1000s of times the number of abortions than any collection of Human-induced abortions !!!!

Therefore – all hospitals should be required to report all of these God-induced abortions – and all Churches should be required to prey to their God – every day – to STOP causing these God-induced abortions !!!!

And also:

“The House measure requires a physician to be in the room when a woman takes an abortion-inducing drug, …”

makes absolutely no sense at all since in the Pennsylvania case a doctor *was* present. A doctor who has now been charged with murder.

Unsurprisingly Rep. Joyce Peppin manages to skip the blindingly obvious fact that if RU486 were more freely available then the death(s) in the Pennsylvania case wouldn’t have happened at all.

Besides how does the Pennsylvania case, where RU486 wasn’t used, become any sort of justification for regulating RU486?

Republicans want to control things – because they all basically believe in a God-construct of some kind – and want to do on to others as their God-construct does on to them !!!!

Control – Control – Control – and when the Republicans can’t control something – why – it’s gotta be the work of the Devil-contruct !!!!!
