Discussion for article #237102
There must be a special streak of stupid in some Wisconsin voters to elect and re-elect Walker and crazy women like this one.
The reason they didn’t have anyone with medical training write this bill is because it was written by the marketing company for the Democratic presidential campaign. Scott Walker and his cronies are doing their best to pander to those who would have voted for him anyway, while at the same time feeding into the “war on women” and guaranteeing that he’ll be a laughing stock to Democrats and independents.
I can’t wait to see the TV ads repeating Walker’s assertion that victims of rape and incest don’t matter. Those “ultrasounds are cool” remarks should replay well, too.
“Medical diplomas? We ain’t got no medical diplomas. I don’t need to show you no stinking medical diplomas”
People with medical training are scientists by profession. Hence they are not qualified to write GOP bills that pander to those with 6th grade educations.
when he was asked if he believed in climate change his answer was that he wasn’t a scientist…
Nobody has asked him why he always sounds like an idiot. He can hardly claim he isn’t that.
“Walker has said he will sign the bill regardless of whether it has an exception for pregnancies that result from rape or incest.”
Kindof like shooting your eye out in order to get your Red Rider Beebee Gun. “You’ll shoot your eye out, kid.” “Not if it’s already gone!!!”
The GOP/Teatrolls have literally turned their primary process into a way to disseminate as much information about their candidates as possible that will poison their chances in the general. Of course, even they have recognized this, which is why they lamented giving the public so much information about their candidates via so many debates last time.
If they were drafting new automobile inspection rules - they would involve a qualified automotive engineer.
If they were revising building codes for roof strength & max snow load - they’d involve a construction engineer.
But - regulations that would would ban abortions after 20 weeks ? just use a lawyer & this 62 year old ranting lunatic with a B.A. from University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee…who just flat out makes stuff up see this - -
Lazich became more agitated as her speech went on and made a jaw-dropping assertion about the history of the procedure in the U.S.
“These abortions became popular in the '60s. It was almost the thing to do. You needed to get one of them to be a woman.”
… Jeez … what a total unbalanced loon!
Damn I feel relieved now. After 47 years of doing reproductive physiology research in a medical school and it’s gone to waste cuz lawmakers don’t need anyone with an education to help them to come up with laws affecting reproduction since they don’t know their ass from a warm stone.
(kicks empty soda can down a dusty street and walks away)
Are there any Republicans in the state of Wisconsin who wonder where these cretins come from? And does wherever they come from have paved streets or indoor plumbing?
Seriously, you guys.
Yes, yes there is.
Drive through out-state Wisconsin and you will see lots of goobers (in Minnesota we call them “Cheese-Necks”) with “I Stand with Gov. Walker” stickers on their rusted-out pickup trucks with gun-racks. You will also see lots of Billboards saying the same thing. All you hear on the radio is Country Music and Limbaugh/Beck/Savage/Hannity. The only station anyone watches is FOX News in all the bars, restaurants, and stores. It’s definitely Mississippi-North out there.
They LOVE Scott Walker because they feel he HATES all the same people they HATE. NI(CLANG!), Wet-Backs, Sand NI(CLANG!), Chinks, Jews, Uppity-Women, College-educated people (Lib’rul ELEETS) Gays, basically anyone “Not Them”.
Remember, these are the same people who elected (and LOVED) Joseph McCarthy in the 50’s. The acorn does not fall far from the tree. Even though it had a strong “progressive” constituency in the 30’s, 40’s, and 60’s most of those people are dead or moved away for someplace with jobs (Illinois, Minnesota). What is left are the losers, fools, and haters.
Thus you got Scott “Smirking” Walker, and they LOVE whenever he “sticks it to the Lib-tards” who they blame for ALL their ills (imagined and real.)
There are enclaves of progressives (Madison, Eau Claire, Milwaukee, etc.) but they are few and far between.
With the death of manufacturing in Wisconsin ((Janesville USED to have a huge Chrysler plant, but it closed, Milwaukee had lots of it in the 50’s and 60’s, no longer) union membership plummeted as did progressive thought with it.
With representation like this , soon the citizens of WI will have no reason to carry on…they are the one’s that put these failed human beings in control of their political and social destiny.(with help from Koch Bros.)
Well said!
Given their standard for sentience in politicians, it’s actually a lot easier to understand the GOP test for viability in a fetus. From a developmental standpoint, there’s not much difference.
So when did Wisconsin become Texas?
Lazich also dismissed the need to include a rape or incest exception in the bill, saying: “Rape and incest, people tend to deal with that in the very early stages — days, weeks.”
That’s kind of true, except in cases where the victim is too afraid, for a myriad of reasons, to reveal that she’s been raped, or cases where the victim isn’t, for another myriad of reasons, able to report the assault. While the 20 week ban may not effect the majority of rape and incest victims, the ones effected are most likely women and girls in the worst situations, the ones most desperate to end their pregnancies.
Do Republicans even write any laws that do anything for society at large any more?
