I hope y'all enjoy today's meme.

If you know some people in Nebraska copy it and send it to them! The Kerry/ Fischer race is now within the margin of error and the more people hear about this woman's politics, the better.

(WOOHOO!!! UPDATE: This DU post has got so many hits that the meme now shows up on page three of google images for deb fischer. Keep kicking peeps! maybe we can get it on the front page of google. :0) Hmmmmm...I think I'll add another meme. :0)

1. This is just wrong in so many ways.

Does this woman realize that an abortion is safer than trying to have a live birth for a mother under fifteen? Does she even understand the number and size of the problems that a child trying to have a child faces?

What the hell is wrong with this woman.

2. What is wrong with the republican party??

5. I seriously can't understand it...

unless what they really want is unwed (and wed) mothers others stuck on welfare...because that is what happens when you don't have sex ed, when you make it hard to get birth control and you outlaw abortions.

[DonRedwood]

3. She probably opposes birth control as well.

4. I Can't Imagine

What are these people and governing bodies thinking? Empathy or lack of it is the thing, being able to put yourself in another human's situation. Sociopaths see other humans as nothing more than bugs, these people must too.

Not only must a woman raise the rapist's child, she has to spend 18 years with some further contact with the creep who violated her. Horrible for the woman and what about the child? One parent a rapist, the other would almost have to have some conflicting feelings about said child. This is a horrible situation, it gives me chills thinking about it.

6. Well, Deb Fischer wants to take all that choosing out of the picture so you don't have to worry.

She and her pastor are happy to make up the mind of the entire country.

7. Actually, the race is now within the margin of error, according to an OWH poll that came out today.

Still, get the word out!

8. Now that is news I can use!

I would just love to see Deb Ricketts-Fischer campaign go down in flames.

[DonRedwood]

11. me too... there are 12 Senators besides Deb Fischer that think raped women have no say

in abortion.

What is crazy is to deny them the morning after pill.

10. oops! i meant to type "now withing the margin" and typed "not within the margin"

thaaaaaaaank you for the correction!!!!

9. Let's see now. How is this going to work? "Honey, remember that the rapist is coming to

visit "his" son this Friday. I'm sure he will be escorted by some penal official. You will explain
to little Johnny that this man had violent, non-consensual sex with you and that he is going to be in jail for the next 40 yrs because of that. Oh no, maybe you shouldn't tell him that yet.
You can wait until he is 21,then he will be old enough to understand who and what his biological father really is."

Note: I'm not trying to be flippant. I'm attempting to show how unfair, unwise and cruel a statute granting any rights at all to a convicted rapist would be. A rapist's child and all others close to him,would live a tormented life. The least the law could do would be to disallow any rights to the criminal. Such a statute would clearly be telling the rape victim that she , her body and embryo are the property of the Government to be dealt with in any manner they might decide. Could such injustice be happening in the U.S. in 2012?

[DonRedwood]

12. yes--apparently there are a few states that allow it

[ladjf]

13. Oh no. I thought it was only a Republican proposal. Unbelievable. nt

[DonRedwood]

15. Someone on an earlier post I read talked about that

I don't have a link though. But, apparently, there are some states where the rapist can still have parental rights. (a married man can rape his wife...)
