Are they fucking serious? This is rape.And the ultrasound legislation would constitute an unprecedented government mandate to insert vaginal ultrasonic probes into women as part of a state-ordered effort to dissuade them from terminating pregnancies, legislative opponents noted.
If the cons here aren't against this then I will never believe another thing they say when they whine about big government.
How does any doctor perform an abortion without being at least a tiny eensey weensey little bit invasive? Is there a teleporter involved? It appears that maybe the invasive component can't be the primary objection under the circumstances.
That said, I am not at all sure WHY a legislature thinks it has to mandate the use of an internal ultrasound as part of that (or any other) medical procedure, however. I mean, maybe their medical expertise is just more complete than the doctors' expertise? I hate to agree with Ravi as a matter of general principle. But even she can occasionally make a fair point.
(But, even so, Ravi, please. You can drop the pretext. No matter what position conservatives take on this -- or almost any other issue -- you don't "believe" conservatives anyway. On that topic, your mind is not just closed. It's rusted shut.)
