Simple Bill

If you haven't heard or seen it yet, you will. State Senator Bill Napoli of South Dakota, speaking in support of the state's absurd abortion restriction legislation, let folks know just what an idiot and/or caveman he is. For those who argued that abortion must be allowed in the cases of rape, Napoli responded that if it was a case of "simple rape," then no abortion should be allowed.

In an interview, Napoli explains the one scenario he might consider allowing a woman to have an abortion would be:
real-life description to me would be a rape victim, brutally raped, savaged. The girl was a virgin. She was religious. She planned on saving her virginity until she was married. She was brutalized and raped, sodomized as bad as you can possibly make it, and is impregnated. I mean, that girl could be so messed up, physically and psychologically, that carrying that child could very well threaten her life.

Good to know Napoli is such a caring guy about women's (oops, sorry, virginal girl's) feelings. One cartoonist has suggested women give him a call to ask for his help in making other decisions in life. Click here for that cartoon. And thanks to YB for telling us about it.
