TX legislator wants to force abortion seekers to get ultrasound ..
..and listen to the fetal heartbeat.

That one is new to me. Sheesh.. forcing
women to do that.

It's Dan Patrick and extreme cultural Reeps
who want that.

There are more Dems in the TX house now, so
maybe it won't pass.

Still.. just the idea alarms me.

1. If men got pregnant, we wouldn't be having this bullshit.

3. If men got pregnant, abortion would be a "sport" with its own show in ESPN. n/t

4. A similar bill failed to pass the FL State Senate by one vote
Our courageous Governor refused to take a stand on the bill until the legislature passed it.

7. I'll bet he wants to make the women pay for them too.
Oh yeah, make it more expensive and difficult for low income women. :grr:
