Wendy Davis Is Going for a 13 Hour Filibuster

[Helvereos]

Despite her filibuster, Wendy Davis is no match for Darth Sidious.

Republicans may not have a lot of power in Congress, but they have power where it counts: the States.

Who says Wendy Davis isn't Darth Sidious?

I want that in the dictionary. The paper in his pocket just puts the icing on the cake.

The word-part "gyno" refers generally to women though. They're not interested in all of the woman, just the bit that makes babies.

Thus ... obstetrician + politician = obstetrolitician

Or if that has too many syllables, just call them a SOB/GYN

I'm going with SOB. It can stand both for obstetrilitician and son of a bitch, which suits people like them.

That's obstetrolitician ... yeah, son-of-a-bitch was what I meant.

That's even slipping away, rather rapidly in some states.

All it takes is one woman in the United States killed by a denied abortion.

[Blakk Metal]

Erm, no. Texas would never lose a chance to kill a killer.

Are you really so sure about that?

That counts as an execution for larceny.

[Geilinor]

I didn't support filibusters before, but I admire this use of the filibuster.

Very true. They're forcing providers of abortions to close down. Even in a medical emergency, the woman would be required to travel.

I keep seeing this on my Facebook newsfeed, since Planned Parenthood put it up. Figured it's appropriate.

I'm using this word on abortion threads now.

Back on topic:
You can call Gov. Perry's office, and tell them that you oppose the special session. It likely won't do anything BUT on the off-chance it may, I suggest doing it. Not to mention, it might scare the ever loving shit out of Prick Perry.

Eh, I don't think they would care if some North Carolinian called in.

This is sort of why I didn't do it. That and I don't like calling people. >_>[/quote]
No way! Me too.

I am fucked if I need to call someone. Seriously. Which means I'm now fucked in regards to getting some housing. FUCK.

iirc North Dakota only has one abortion provider in the state, and (again, iirc) transporting minors across state lines for an abortion is highly illegal.
We fucking need to fix that.

It's always difficult for me to set up appointments because I just don't like talking on the phone.

I never set up appointments via phone. I always show up in person and do it at the receptionist's desk. Or online.

My parents always get on me about that.

"Why don't you just call?"

"Eh, I'll just go over and talk to [x]."

It's good to know I'm not the only one who doesn't like talking on the phone.

My parents don't get it either. Neither do my friends.

Because politicians shouldn't be the people deciding how tax money is spent?

They shouldn't be the ones deciding which medical procedures are performed.

Imagine if they were doing this to say, Cardiologists instead: "We need to protect the sanctity of the natural heart! Ban coronary bypasses, and stop all public funding for performing the operation! Life begins at the cellular level!" It'd be ridiculous. What makes abortion any different?

They decide how tax money is spent, sure, but if you're going to use tax money for medicinal purposes, it should be someone educated in medical science who makes the decision as to what procedures it's spent on.

We fucking need to fix that.

So someone is going to die in a medical emergency if that last abortion provider closes down.

But more will die if it isn't because abortion is America's holocaust, duh.

That's not what I was saying. I'm saying that politicians should stop trying to ban or severely restrict abortion.

They already do that.

I actually have a stated policy to only communicate through Text Messaging over the phone,>_>

Of course I also don't like talking to people in person...

I might have been described as anti-social more than once, <_<;
