What in God’s name is going on in the Commonwealth of Virginia?
Last week, the state House and Senate in Virginia passed a bill that requires women to undergo an ultrasound procedure before having an abortion and, in many cases, it would require them to have a transvaginal ultrasound! That’s right, I am not making this up. In many cases, especially early abortions, the doctor would be forced to insert a probe inside the woman’s vagina in order to see the reproductive organs.
The anti-abortion crowd gets more disgusting with each passing year.

The Virginia legislature is sick in the head.
I used to think as Virginia as the Progressive state. The state where the greatest thinkers came from.
That is all destroyed for me now.
I had an abortion on Dec 22, and I had an ultrasound too.. down in San Diego CA. Whats wrong with that?

Does this sound like a “war on women” to you?
Are these women victims?
Or, is truth the victim?
Compare Romney’s administration to the Obama Administration’s treatment of women:
“The White House Boys’ Club: President Obama Has a Woman Problem”

Don’t be fooled by Obama’s beautiful, lofty oratory.
Well, of course, Wilbur those women are going to speak highly of Romney because they SUPPORTED Romney. Duh? And please dont tell me that Romney would have been better for women! “Let’s shut down Planned Parenthood” to begin with. Yeah, that will help women a lot. And Romney opposed Obamacare, which allows women to get certain tests with no co-pay. I could go on and on. If you think Romney would have been better, I suggest medication. But the question is moot anyway, huh?
How is inserting a probe into a woman’s vagina any more intrusive than inserting, say, forceps and a suction tube? I guess one is checking to see if there’s life and the ther is making sure there won’t be any? I mean, if you’re planning on an abortion, you should probably plan on your reproducive organs being inspected by a doctor, since that’s where fetuses reside.
