Pennsylvania gov. to women: Just close your eyes during forced ultrasound
Gov. Tom Corbett (R) says he supports forcing women to have an ultrasound before an abortion because they can just close their eyes.
Guttmacher Institute policy analyst Elizabeth Nash told Raw Story last month that Pennsylvanias proposed measure is one of the most restrictive anti-abortion bills that she had ever seen.
In addition to mandating transvaginal ultrasounds, the bill encourages women to listen to the procedure and view images of the fetus.
How about this Mr pro-pedophilia Corbett - Let someone give you a rectal exam with that big rod they use for transvaginal ultrasounds. Just close your eyes - it won't hurt as we ram it up there. If you can do that then maybe we can talk about your stupid anti-women laws.
Thank you for handing Pennsylvania over to Obama. And when one of the democrats win the Attorney General I can't wait for them to expose how you let the Jerry Sandusky trial slide while you pursued your political career. You sat for 11 months on the Board of Trustees at Penn State and said NOTHING! How many boys were raped while you did nothing about the case.
There is a cold place in hell for you where the devil is going to ram your butt hourly with a transvaginal rod you sick asshole!
BTW, for those women who can - come to Delaware or Maryland where we treat women like equals. Sure DE has toll booths but we don't have a governor who wants to force rape on you.

Asshole was on CSPAN and a woman from Kansas called in and asked about the Blunt amendment. He said women who want birth control can just go work somewhere else.

(21,478 posts)I can't believe the offensive posts from the Dittoheads on various sites and publications. If anyone did not think there's a full scale war on women and their health taking place, just check out not just the governor's comments, but the comments posted on various websites.
It's clear Limbaugh has emboldened them in their hatred. And that the Republicans are starting to believe that this is the way to electoral success.
By the way, where do the GOP candidates stand on mandatory transvaginal ultrasounds on women seeking an abortion?

(132 posts)The main problem with guys like Corbett, Santorum, Scalia and Thomas is that they have no consciences. Instead they have a Church dogma in their heads which they think is one. But the Church dogma they have is neither rational nor moral. It gives the same rights to a fertilized egg as a child, it excommunicates pregnant girls who have been raped but does not excommunicate any Nazis of the Third Reich. These guys are walking around and leading others but have absolutely no consciences in their brains and are unable to feel genuine human empathy and compassion and to know what is wrong and what is right. They only feel what their church allows them to feel, which is obedience and loyalty, which are totally inadequate substitutes for human emotions and conscience.

Gov Tom Ridge was Catholic and a Republican and he was vehemently pro-choice.
It's too easy to blame the faith, we need to blame the men.
Personally what I think is happening is that they're giving up on the immigrant and GLBT battles and going back to the beginning. They're losing on those first two battles so they need to find SOMETHING to repress.

It's all tax cuts and state-mandated rape. That's all they've got.

(5,198 posts)they mistakenly think that attacking gays, teachers, minorities, poor and women --is the path of LEAST resistance--being the pompous authoritarians that they are.
By STANDING OUR GROUND and PUSHING BACK in SOLIDARITY, we are not playing their game but CHANGING the rules of the game. Let them squeal and insult us and complain....while their obsolete nightmare of a plan circles the drain!!!!!
They have taken the path with the MOST resistance, just wait.
Women--Do not comply--pass it on.

(20,453 posts)All the cookie cutter laws written by ALEC are ramming themselves down the collective throats of poor Pennsylvanians. We can't recall this sub-human piece of work.
As an elected official, our local govt (all local govts) are going to be dealing with Act 13, which was written with utter contempt for local zoning laws. They'll have the Marcellus Shale oil and gas industry waltzing into any zoning district to drill 24/7 until they've raped PA very soon. I guess I should feel lucky that vaginas don't have a shale layer.
This forced ultrasound.... I can't even put into words what I'd like to do to these guys. Women are supposed to view and listen to this mandated ultrasound and now we hear from this jagoff about women getting a govt permission slip to do what they are LEGALLY able to do.
In a PIG'S eye. This is unconstitutional, and this guy has got to GO.

(904 posts)has to be paid for by the patient, anyone know if this is true? Also heard this is a very expensive procedure, as most invasive procedures are. In any case I highly doubt Dr.'s will be getting paid for a procedure that is medically not necessary and done against the wishes of the patient if in fact the patient is the one footing the bill. Many women seeking abortion simply cannot afford a child, so this procedure would only add to her already shaky financial standing. If they have to choose what gets paid (ie., rent, food, medication, clothing, utilities, etc.), I would guess paying this bill would have no priority whatsoever. Dr.'s will get fed up for doing a procedure that requires there time, and getting no reimbursement at all.

(95,337 posts)those states still haven't passed draconian style abortion rules and with Democrats controlling 3 of those states (all but NJ) for now it will be safe in those states.

(1,979 posts)Thanks for the update on the misogynist attacks on women from the right. This is what happens when labor is less of a force in a state like Pennsylvania. They stop focusing on job and start focusing on vaginas.

(4,847 posts)why don't these misogynist creeps just move to somewhere like SA. It seems they have more in common with fundy muslims (not all muslims are fundy).
Attacks on women, gays is part of fascism 101. "the handmades tale" and starhawk's "the fifth sacred thing" come to mind. a patriarchal corporatized world, where women and children are just chattel. Actually, starhawk's book goes further, where children are bred from birth to do whatever the elites demand and their reward is they will gain a soul. Because, they are told from the time they can understand that they are soulless, until the elites deem they are worthy to receive a soul.
I never imagined that we would take so many steps backward in this country. It is truly interesting and scary times.
