Step on the state crack, break the Reich's back...

As might have been expected, the passage of the draconian abortion ban in South Dakota is fueling similar efforts in other states. There is even concern that Ohio House Bill 228, pending since 2005, may now have a chance of passage.
HB 228 not only would make it a felony for a woman to have an abortion, but equally would criminalize her and anyone who assisted her if she crossed the state line to seek an abortion elsewhere.

An adult woman can NOT cross state lines? Sounds alot like false imprisonment to me.

The only exception to the proposed Ohio ban is an abortion performed to save a woman's life, but the bill's primary sponsor, Rep. Tom Brinkman, explains that the exception to save a woman's life is just for show anyway.

"It's a fallacy perpetrated by the Planned Parenthood people," Brinkman says. "My doctors tell me they're never in that type of dilemma."

Really? NEVER happens?
"My doctors"? Who are they, wonderful Evangelical doctors like former Bush-appointed FDA Reproductive Health Drugs Advisory Committee member Dr. Hager? Or perhaps doctors from the truly un-biased Heritage Foundation? Or perhaps Dr. Uruh, the South Dakota Abortion Task Force member and co-founder of the Abstinence Clearinghouse who insists there was equal representation on the force?...meaning 2 of the 17 members were pro-choice.

So what would Brinkman say to a young girl pregnant by her uncle?--since there is no rape or incest exception?

"I would just tell that 13 year old -- I know they're (going) through a traumatic situation -- number one, it's not the baby's fault," he says. "Number two, we should have adoption choices available."

Thanks for pretending to care, Mr. bag-o-douche.
