Georgia Representative Terry England compares women to cows & pigs. - YouTube

England is a co-sponsor of House Bill 954. The bill would prevent most abortions after 20 weeks, even if the fetus would not survive on its own.

I love the whole emotional speech about the guy who said he would give up his chickens if only they outlawed abortion. He went on and on about how it was the last thing in the world he ever expected to hear from this man...I mean wth does that even mean?

The sad part is that this does man not represent all Republicans, not even the majority, I think. Just the minority who makes the most noise. When you have idiots spouting nonsense like this, most sane Republicans and Conservatives should do their best to distance themselves from it, and even call him out on his utter lack of sensibility.

That's the thing, "real" conservatives are all but gone and the ones that are still around, just sit quietly while these hard right religious fanatics run wild destroying the party, and make the entire GOP come across as lunatics to the general population.

When Democrats start calling out the radicals in their party then you can talk. It isn't just a Republican thing.

Now I find this ridiculous. If a baby dies within its mother's womb through no fault of her own why should she carry a dead baby around in her body? In fact I would think that would be unhealthy for the mother. I knew a young woman who's baby had died in her womb and she wondered why she was sick in her late pregnancy. After tests were done no heartbeat was detected and it was determined that the baby had died and that was why she had felt sick all the time.

Oh yeah, blame the entire Republican party for the actions of a few. Typical Democrat response. They have enough of their own dirty laundry and dumb legislation to answer for.

Does one have to be a religous fanatic to be insane?
