Related: About this forumWisconsin GOP Poised To Legalize Sexual, Emotional Abuse
http://cognidissidence.blogspot.com/2013/02/wisgop-poised-to-legalize-sexual.htmlThey are passing the mining bill, even though it won't stand up in court, because they owe the mining and power companies. They're passing bills to sell our children, their education and their futures in order to pay back the education profiteers.
And they are about to pass a bill legalizing the sexual and emotional abuse of women: We are in a very good place in Wisconsin, Vos said. We have a pro-life Legislature, pro-life governor in Scott Walker and a pro-life attorney general (J.B. Van Hollen). We can all wrap our arms around this agenda.
And it sounds like the first bill to get a warm reception from Republicans will be what's being dubbed the Womans Right to Know her Unborn Child Act, also being termed the "ultrasound bill" by pro-choice forces.
The bill would require a woman seeking an abortion to receive an ultrasound and be informed of what is visible on the monitoring screen although the woman would not be forced to look at the image. This bill is a priority, Fitzgerald said. It is long overdue.
It's getting worse, fast.

(2,354 posts)3. Tell me again, why do the Republicans proclaim themselves to be...
... the party of "Freedom" and "Small Gubbermint?"
With minimal intrusiveness by the bureaucracy of the state... in the day to day lives of ordinary citizens?

refuse $12 billion from the federal government for BadgerCare?
