When Teabaggers are faced with the ACTUAL agonizing decision of whether or not to have an abortion and it’s not their mistresses, they start pulling out stuff like this. They do it all the time.

“Maybe she had the abortion, maybe she didn’t,” Siggins wrote

WTF? I didn’t realize that it was possible to create digital toilet paper, but congrats NRO!

> But the reasons Davis gives for having had her abortions are unproven and statistically unlikely."

Despicable, but a keen insight into the Republican mindset. They really have this desire to be involved in every aspect of your personal life, despite their claims to the contrary. As if she should have to have a “pics or didn’t happen” in a situation like this.

“But the reasons Davis gives for having had her abortions are unproven and statistically unlikely.”

Not as unlikely, however, as The National Review writing something worth reading.

So it’s Wendy’s Kenya or Wendy’s Benghazi? Guess we’ll have to wait for more mansplaining from the Spock-like Dustin.

People, you must sacrifice a few minutes of your time and tune in to some of the radio talkers who spew this crap. It is truly amazing to hear them agree that their logic warp jumps from unwarranted assumptions to foregone conclusions are obviously true. Please listen closely and consider how important it is to avoid the same mistakes.

So the abortions that she probably didn’t actually have mean she’s too cra-cra to be governor. Got it.

Dustin!! There are lies, big lies and statistics! Maybe you should have crawled under the OB-Gyn and the stirrups and you would know for sure. What a bottom feeder!.

So far…

it is extremely rare — if not non-existent — for a woman to have an abortion because the pregnancy posed a risk to her life.

Well, gosh. You know, ectopic pregnancies are just not all that rare. In the olden days women just died with them, but now we have an alternative - it’s called an abortion, although sometimes we come up with gentler words to describe the procedure. Then there are the many women whose fetus dies early on but doesn’t abort on it’s own so intervention is necessary. Not intervening leads to massive infection and likely death. Technically, that’s an abortion too. Then there’s preeclampsia. The only cure for preeclampsia is delivering the baby. Luckily, most of the babies are at 34 weeks or more and will survive the delivery, but not all. Choice: dead mom and dead baby or live mom and dead baby. Remember that case in Ireland where the hospital wouldn’t abort the fetus until it was dead in utero? Of course, by then Mom was dead too. Rare? not.

First, go choke on your perverted version of reality and morality.

Second, do it again.

The National Journal question women on their stories a lot. It seems to be if you are a woman you are lying. I mean look at how many women who get raped are questioned immediately if it is true or not. I think the National Journal should go and have some deep soul searching about this. If it was a man who admitted his wife had these abortions I doubt if they would have blinked.

I know conservatives like to claim liberals like myself are just full of hate…but then they go act like the most loathsome people on the planet. Hell, I’m sure they’d provoke Gandhi to violence.

They’re not giving me very many options here.
