GOP Rep Claims Birth Control Causes More Abortions

GOP Rep Claims Birth Control Causes More Abortions

“Rather than work with us, Democrats again are spreading fear and misinformation to score political points. That opens the door further to extreme abortion-on-demand and their agenda. H.R. 8373 is a Trojan Horse for more abortions.

“It should be called the ‘Payouts for Planned Parenthood Act!’ It would send more taxpayer dollars to Planned Parenthood.” – GOP Rep. Rep. Cathy McMorris Rodgers, during today’s debate on codifying to right to access contraceptives.

Rodgers is a creationist nutbag who authored Washington state’s bill that would have outlawed same-sex marriage.

Contraception can involve the penis.
Contraception can involve the vagina

This is morally reprehensible and has no place in decent society. Once people have access to contraception, they will have sex with animals and marry their toaster. Won’t someone think of the children?

– GOP Rep. Rep. Cathy [Monica Cole wannabee] McMorris Rodgers,

Abortions increase when a woman cannot control her reproductive cycle.

Their anti-freedom positions are so appalling, misogynistic, and hateful, Rethugs have no alternative other than to keep lying about the facts, lying about their own position, and lying about the position and goals of our side.

Just fucking blatantly lying.

So… not becoming pregnant leads to more abortions, just as shooting people with assault weapons leads to fewer deaths.

This is 100% about one group forcing its filthy, disgusting morals on everyone else. Evangelicals are sick.

How did this become a republican crusade? You’d think no republican ever got an abortion or used birth control. I think they’ve lost their minds!

Random Observer boobert • 22 minutes ago

Read up on the history – Jerry Falwell / Paul Weyrich (Moral Majority) used abortion to drive evangelical votes to GOP when DOJ under Carter said “no government money for segregated colleges” like his “Liberty University” and Bob Jones University, which were “whites only”, even in the mid 70s.

Not just women, men too. I am pretty sure there’s more than a few men who would not want to be forced into supporting a child they weren’t expecting or wanting with a woman they maybe weren’t really wanting to have a lifetime attachment to.

Good point.

I tell ya, crewman… if you’re a woman, an LGBT person or a person of color and you vote Republican, you are clinically mentally ill.

You need professional help.

THREE HOUR TOUR – Gilligan’s Island Parody

Song Parody of “The Ballad Of Gilligan’s Island” words and music by Sherwood Schwartz and Georgy Wyle © 1963 parody lyrics by Roy Zimmemran and Melanie Harby © 2022 – FAIR USE

Just sit right back and you’ll hear a tale
Of a nearly successful coup
That started at the end of
Constitution Avenue

A congressman named Loudermilk
A MAGA guy obscure
Led twelve of his constituents
On a three hour tour
A three hour tour

One of the guys who was on that tour
Who’d learned his way around
Came back with the mob the very next day
And stormed the Capitol grounds

It wasn’t just a protest
That got somehow out of hand
But a violent insurrection
Meticulously planned

The president who would be king
Conspired to make damn sure
The rioters would lay siege that day
On a three hour tour
A three hour tour

The ship of state was nearly wrecked
By the lawlessness and guile
Of Loudermilligan
The Skipper too
The millionaire
And the wife
The movie star
The Professor
and Mary Ann
Here on Mutineers’ Isle

Cobb school logo resembling Nazi crest sparks outrage

East Side Elementary School officials in Cobb County are facing criticism about a new logo that resembles the Nazi Eagle crest.

By , The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
July 19, 2022
 

The Cobb County School District said Tuesday it’s halted the rollout of a new logo for an elementary school after parents pointed out similarities to Nazi iconography.

 

The logo for East Side Elementary in Marietta depicted an eagle, the school’s mascot, over the initials ES. The Nazi eagle, which was developed in the 1920s and later became a symbol for white supremacists worldwide, depicts an eagle holding a swastika in its talons.

 

Parents were notified of the new logo on Monday. It was chosen to “represent the eagle soaring into excellence and to honor the history of our great school,” the message to parents said. The district has been working with all schools to create logos, the message said.

 

The logo drew condemnation on social media.

“I don’t want to see my kids wearing that on their shirt,” said Mike Albuquerque, the father of two students who will attend the school next year. “Really it’s a big oversight of the county and everyone involved in the process who reviewed that, to not call out the fact that this looks like Nazi iconography. Or maybe, who knows, somebody did call it out and it wasn’t heard.”

Georgia’s second-largest school district said in a statement Tuesday it had halted the rollout of the logo and was reviewing necessary changes.

 

“We understand and strongly agree that similarities to Nazi symbolism are unacceptable,” the district said in a statement. “Although this design was based on the U.S. Army colonel’s eagle wings, stakeholder input has been and continues to be important to our schools.”

 

East Side Elementary is located across the street from a synagogue.

The logo controversy is only the latest related to antisemitism in Cobb schools. Last month, a group began posting hot pink billboards around metro Atlanta that are challenging viewers to fight antisemitism, in part in response to incidents last school year in Cobb.

Graffiti depicting swastikas was found in two Cobb County high schools during the Jewish High Holidays. Several Cobb middle school students were disciplined earlier this year for sharing antisemitic imagery on social media.

“If Atlanta is too busy to hate, why is there a swastika at my kid’s school?” reads a billboard that went up on Briarcliff Road in Atlanta.

Antisemitic incidents in Georgia more than doubled between 2020 and 2021, according to a report by the Anti-Defamation League. Georgia tallied 49 incidents in 2021.

“This is not the first time Cobb County schools have been tone-deaf to antisemitism,” said Dov Wilker, director of the American Jewish Committee Atlanta region, in a statement about the logo. “Pretending that antisemitism doesn’t exist won’t make it go away. The children who attend Cobb County schools — and their families — deserve better.”

Police Pull Up In Unmarked Car and Shoot Black Man in the Back

“Police are investigating an officer-involved shooting that fatally wounded a Black man on Saturday in San Bernardino, California.

They say the man was armed at the time.

The incident occurred in a parking lot around 8 p.m., and was recorded by nearby surveillance cameras.

Disturbing silent footage, which shows uniformed authorities emerge from an unmarked vehicle and shoot 23-year-old Robert Adams in the back, was shared to social media and has since sparked outrage online.

In the video, which lasts about two minutes, Adams is first seen standing at the rear of a parked car speaking to someone he seems to know. He appears to face the unmarked police vehicle and briefly step toward it, at which point two officers exit the driver’s and passenger seat doors with their guns drawn.

Adams turns to run in the opposite direction and moves just a few paces before one officer discharges his weapon.

The bullet strikes Adams in the back, and he falls to the ground. Adams was transported to a hospital where he later died from his injuries.

His mother, Tamika Deavila King, responded to the shooting and surveillance footage in comments to CBS Los Angeles this week.

Like many others on Twitter and Facebook, she questioned the officer’s decision to fire his gun.”

Gingrich: Climate Change Is “A Bunch Of Lies”

“Go back and take everything that Al Gore put in his movie, go through it step-by-step — it’s all a bunch of lies, it didn’t happen, it’s not true.

“The human race is not on the edge of collective suicide unless it’s by nuclear war. But we’re certainly not on the edge of collective suicide because of climate.

“And I think the elites are so frenzied, they all go to the same cocktail parties, they all talk to each other, they all come to an agreement that they’re going to say this nonsense and going to reinforce each other.

“The truth is, it’s false. Just as, by the way, the same elites were lying to us about COVID.” – Newt Gingrich, last night on Laura Ingraham’s show.
