Brownback Thinks He Has A Uterus

The title was taken from Think Progress. Here is the story.

Brownback thinks he has a uterus.During last night’s presidential debate, Sen. Sam Brownback (R-KS) repeatedly motioned to his stomach to argue against pro-choice policies. “Here in the womb,” he said, there “is a child that we’re talking about doing this to.” Brownback argued specifically for prohibiting rape and incest victims from obtaining an abortion.

Tell that to the rape and incest victims Brownback. Tell them that although they were violated in the most horrific way, it doesn't matter what they want. It doesn't matter how they feel. The only thing that matters is the fetus.
BROWNBACK: And I think that’s the thing we’ve got to really look at here, is, what are we doing? We talk about abortion, but abortion is a procedure. This is a life that we’re talking about. And it’s a terrible situation where there’s a rape that’s involved or incest.

But it nonetheless remains that this is a child that we’re talking about doing this to, of ending the life of this child. Will that make the woman in a better situation if that’s what takes place? And I don’t think so, and I think we can explain it when we look at it for what it is: a beautiful child of a loving God, that we ought to protect in all circumstances in all places, here in the womb, somebody that’s struggling in poverty, a family that’s struggling. We should work and look at all life, be pro-life and whole-life for everybody.

So let me get this straight. God is loving, yet "he" allows rape and incest to happen. How is that loving? How is allowing a woman or child to be violated a loving thing? Explain that one Mr. Brownback!!

Also, what's this crap about struggling in poverty or a family that's struggling? Is he suggesting that only poor, struggling women have abortions? Is he suggesting that only poor, struggling women and children are raped and are victims of incest? Once again, he just proves how idiotic and insane he truly is. Once again, it's not about a woman's rights. It's about the rights of a fetus, and ultimately the rights of the rapist. That's a great message to be sending!! NOT!!

    These guy's are so all over the field with everything... it seems the Republican voters should see this.

    They fell for Bush's mess, so maybe they do buy into this type message.

    Brownback will say and do anything right about now.

    I will never say over look his comments, because after all there's a long way before someone is declared President in the next elections.

    For some reason my comments have not been posting at your site.

    Brownback is all over the place, I think at this point he might say anything to get into the race.

    He is trying to appeal to the right wing conservatives who think foolish and believe anything when it comes to pro life.

    I'm trying for the third time to leave my comment.

    Brownback like all the other candidates are saying anything to reach the right wing nuts out there.
