1. Oz lied about his position on Medicare.

[uponit7771]

30. Yep, that's all they have.. they know Americans don't want their positions

[Ilsa]

2. Oz expects women to give the mayor our healthcare directive?

I wish I could have saved the conceptus from my miscarriage to give Oz to adopt and raise.

[Raven123]

3. The ad that writes itself

[Freddie]

4. "If I'd wanted a politician in my uterus I'd have f*cked a Senator"

[Meadowoak]

5. +1

[dobleremolque]

17. Stealing. n/t

[Freddie]

27. It's from an old protest sign

30, 40 years ago and things are only worse.

50. LOL

[dweller]

6. Oprah should

take back the license to practice medicine she gave him


✌🏻

[UTUSN]

7. The difference between his motor mouth & John's pauses is their values.

[eShirl]

8. fuck that

and shame on him

[BOSSHOG]

9. Oz offended the local priest, minister, rabbi and other religious leaders

In his decision making cabal by keeping them out of it. Republicans insist that religion is front and center in the choices women make. Is that for vote harvesting purposes? And are men relevant in how a woman gets pregnant?

Does the Catholic Church need to hate women so much just to make money?

[colorado_ufo]

35. Is he a Muslim?

What does that Faith have to say about it?

[IronLionZion]

38. I don't see that many MAGAts voting for him

his vote count might be lower than what polling shows.

[Demsrule86]

45. He is a Muslim...and I have no idea what they say about it...

[KPN]

10. That's called trying to thread the needle but ...

missing miserably.

[Demovictory9]

11. Omg 😳😳😳😳

[William Gustafson]

12. When they show you who they are, believe them

[Rebl2]

13. Local

politicians, state, and federal politicians should have absolutely no say in a woman’s decision regarding abortion. Neither should any court.

[CaptainTruth]

14. Some responses on Twitter, from dara faye

@darafaye

Every time my husband and I decided to have a child, we called our local politicians to discuss my birth plan and then checked that my OB agreed.

Whenever I consider switching tampon brands, I call my local congressmen.

Months when I have bad period cramps, I like to call my city’s mayor to talk about it.

I called my state Senators when I was having issues with breastfeeding.

Instead of going to the ER, when I think I’ve had an ovarian cyst burst, I head straight to Governor Newsom’s house to see what he thinks would be the most appropriate treatment.

My period was 2 days off schedule this month. @POTUS help.

Can we please discuss my PMDD treatment, @RepMikeGarcia? I’d like to be able to approach this topic with my gynecologist after acquiring your expert advice here.

My endometriosis is getting out of control, gonna have to consult with the Los Angeles City Council about my treatment then schedule a doctors appointment.

[peggysue2]

15. And that is the line that should be repeated

Again and again and again.

The question of abortion should be between: A Woman and Her Doctor and Local Political Leaders

Make Oz and every Republican own that statement!

[Demsrule86]

24. It is being repeated all over twitter.

[uponit7771]

29. It needs to be the one line America knows by heart after the midterms are done

[Demsrule86]

42. I agree...there is a new ad already...and I saw a puppy killing ad that made me leave the

room. I couldn't take it...brutal.

[uponit7771]

43. NICE !!!

[ck4829]

49. It really does

[Heather MC]

16. 🤦🏾‍♀️🤦🏾‍♀️🤦🏾‍♀️🤬🤬🤬🤬🖕🏾🖕🏾🖕

Fuck I hate Rethuglicans.
May he be struck with a new disease
Explosive Erectile Dysfunction

🤞🏾🤞🏾🤞🏾🤞🏾

[Beacool]

18. Seriously???

What an idiot!!!

[ShazzieB]

19. The last 6 words are the most telling, imo.

"...so states can decide for themselves."

Got that? "...so states can decide for themselves."

Oh, I see!! It's STATES who need to able to decide for themselves! Not women, not pregnant people, STATES. To hell with all those pregnant people, their partners, their families, their health care providers! It's STATES who need to have the right to choose! Who knew?

Well, to that I say: When a state is able to get pregnant, of course it can have the right to choose. Meanwhile, when any individual in that state gets pregnant, it's none of the state's GD fucking business what they decide to do about it!

Fuck Mehmet Oz and the fucking elephant he fucking rode in on!

[phoenix75]

20. Unbelievable!

What a woman chooses to do (or not do) with her body is no one's business but hers!

[spanone]

21. He actually said that?

He's fucking dumber than I thought

[AngryOldDem]

26. And he meant every word.

People who believe Fetterman is unqualified because of the aftereffects of his stroke need to pay more attention to the good doctor.

[ck4829]

48. Yep

[Aussie105]

22. Failed attempt at bothsiderism?

Oz is a (insert negative swearwords here) joke of a human being.

[Demsrule86]

23. Most folks on twitter are talking about Oz and abortion...I bet he is sorry now he wanted one.

25. The ads write themselves.

THAT was supposed to reassure PA women?

I rue the day Oprah unleashed this snake oil salesman on an unsuspecting public.

[BumRushDaShow]

28. As a note

This was Oz's "Cruidite" moment on steroids. The soundbite was picked up by the local media here in Philly and has now drowned out anything else that he said.

I haven't even done a search yet but I bet there are all kinds of variants of it all over the internet.

Dr. Oz literally said tonight that he wants "local political leaders" (like his buddy Doug Mastriano) to decide whether or not women have access to safe + legal abortions

That is EXTREME

These critical decisions should be made between a woman and her doctor. Period.

39. Women can let Republican politicians make the choice for them

[Ray Bruns]

40. Doctor Oz can GFH

[twodogsbarking]

41. As soon as the Township Supervisor gets done plowing snow he will

decide if you can get an abortion.

[moondust]

44. States' rights! States' rights! States' rights!

Why not slavery?

States' rights! States' rights! States' rights!

Now there's a mayor in Nevada who wants it decided at the town level.

Towns' rights! Towns' rights! Towns' rights!

Why stop there?

Individual rights! Individual rights! Individual rights!

[ck4829]

46. Needs to be an ad
