UNLIMITED "Vaginas are scary" discussion thread!

Written by David Wong, too.  By far the best writer on Cracked.

Also, in the UK, we're having a politically motivated inspection of all abortion providers.  Why?  Because of a huge scandal where two doctor's pre-signed certain paperwork, attesting to the women's mental competency in seeking an abortion.

That there are still stringent checks in the UK for mental competency is, of course, Not The Issue.

[Freeky]

What's the issue, then?  Other than doctor's falsifying paperworks.

[Cain]

That the two doctor rule was deemed an important issue because doctor's had previously been prosecuted for carrying out abortions (in one particular case, a 14 year old girl who had been raped by five soldiers - hospitals refused to perform the abortion on the grounds that she might be carrying the future Prime Minister.  Seriously) and the rule exists only to cover a doctor's back, and has nothing to do with the health and safety of the patient, and never has, contrary to the statements of our own Secretary of Health.

The issue is that a bunch of religious nutters seem to have slipped into Parliament this term, and are being pains in the arse.  Thus, even while Cameron and the Cabinet are cool with whichever way you like to sacrifice virgins to Moloch, some MPs are quite religious and so especially vocal in their dislike of abortion (*cough*NADINEDORRIES*cough*).  This is a calculated sop to them, to get them to shut up.

Only, it wont work.

It also confirms the perception amongst female voters that the Coalition does not have their best interests at heart.  Polling for the government among women is much lower than it is in standard opinion polls.

That is a great article, even though he delves pretty far into sarcasm in the last bitter few parts.

Ah.  I get it now.

Funny, because it's pretty much the very definition of terrorism.

Certainly under the Patriot Act, at the very least.

Doesn't count, because they were being good (probably) white Real Americans.

In Mexico, healthcare is a Constitutional right. Oh, America.

[navkat]

In the future, Mexico wil be a sister division of the I.S.A so not for long.

That might be the funniest/confusingest/dissapointingest thing I've heard all year.
