Barbara Mikulski – Let’s Paint an A on Women’s Foreheads

by Karoli on December 7, 2009 · 32 comments

Barbara Mikulski absolutely shredded Ben Nelson and Orrin Hatch’s clone of the Stupak abortion amendment today. Just shredded. The shaking anger and dripping contempt for her colleagues’ effort to demonize women (her words) was striking and intense.

I stood at the end and applauded.

How about men buy an abortion rider for women they get pregnant? The same men who have no say whether or not their child gets to be born or not? That seems a little inconsistent.

I guess they'd have more choice if the rider was on their policy, eh?

So, if the men had the insurance policies, you would be okay with them deciding that a woman must get an abortion or may not? Somehow I doubt that you would be okay with that.

I think the entire issue is an effort to derail health care reform with a
wedge issue about a procedure that is legal. After Sticks was born, I had a
D&C. that's the same procedure as abortion. Would I have had to pay for it?
If I hadn't had it, I'd have bled to death.

I'm not talking about the merits of the issue, but pointing out the idiocy of her rhetoric.
