NO WHERE in that video did he compare women to cows and pigs and to say he did is an outright lie. I agreed with him until he started spouting crap from the bible.I don't agree with keeping dead babies in the womb though that's cruel.

Georgia Rep Wants To Force Women To Carry Stillborn Babies To Term

The problem with extremist politicians/religious nuts making laws such as this, is they have no concept of the risk and danger such a practice can pose for the mother. Leave medicine to medical professionals. I thought the GOP was against government getting between a patient and their doctor!

As long as the dead fetus/baby remains inside her, she runs the remote but serious risk of a serious coagulation defect, and catastrophic bleeding. This risk is low initially, but increases with time, particularly after he has been dead 4 to 6 weeks. Rupturing the membranes to induce labour is dangerous, because the dead fetal tissues are easily infected by anaerobes.
Fetal death, missed abortion, and intrauterine death

I think the Republican party is a breeding ground for extremism. Keep Limbaugh as your spokesperson and you haven't seen nothin yet!

Let me guess...the new tagline this week from the Obama Camp is that the "GOP Believes That Women Should Be Treated Like Cows."

Can we expect Al Sharpton to break the news?

Okay. This stuff is getting out of hand. Truly and really OUT OF HAND.

Whether you are pro life or pro choice, if you're pro women, in any way shape or form, even if you don't agree with all of them, you've got to see by now that there's something wrong in the way that a woman's life and well being is being regarded as secondary to a fetus at all costs.

Asking a woman to carry a stillborn (or about to be) baby to make some point about the bible is outrageous and immoral. There is no possible good argument for it. It reduces women to the status of brood animals. In fact, I'd be surprised if they let brood animals do it without interfering.

I don't care whether you're left or right, as a decent human being you should be absolutely terrified that anybody's even thinking of introducing this as a bill. Absolutely terrified.

Why are a few radicals in the GOP always compared to the entire party? Is this the way that the libs/lefties Democrats operate these days?

The Dems/libs/lefties always exaggerate and run with complete spin and lies from an original story to demonize all conservative Republicans. It's what they do.

Try again. Limbaugh doesn't represent the views of the majority of the Republican party on many things. He is NOT our spokesperson! I for one am a conservative and have no use for him.
