FETUS PORNOGRAPHER

Call the police. We have another criminal on Capitol Hill. A self-proclaimed fetus pornography. Self-confessed abuser, Rep. Michael Burgess (R-Texas), a licensed OB/GYN, said Monday that he is guilty of fetus pornography. He stated that embryos as young as 15 weeks old masturbate. Yup, he really said that. He thinks these less than half developed fetuses with less than half developed brains and sexual organs are capable of sexual gratification. According to him, after 15 weeks they shouldn’t be aborted. Really? Why? Are they’re having too much fun in the womb?

When it comes to certifiable whack jobs — yes, pun intended — Burgess should be at the front of the line.

If watching a 15 year old in a sexual act is against the law, then if you believe what you’re saying, isn’t watching a 15 week old pleasuring itself also verboten? In all seriousness, we know embryos don’t knowingly perform such acts… And someone with half a brain should know that. Let’s start examining our representatives. If they believe what they say, then perhaps we should have them arrested, not elected.

1. Totally bizarre.

This may be the one thing they haven't tried yet as an excuse to take away women's rights.

2. Yet, 228 elected representatives went along with it.

Pitiful.

[okaawhatever]

3. A few charges of posession of child porn might be in order. If Karl Rove were a dem strategist there

would be attack ads a day or two before the election saying he had admitted to watching child porn.

4. OMG - if the door to the exam room

opened and I saw this guy - I would run - even if all I had on was the gown thing.

5. This could explain why Republicans are so fascinated by ultrasounds and probes, voyeurism.

6. and only the males self-pleasure!!

the gals - well, that area is STRICTLY FOR REGULATION!!!

7. It seems to me that he would applaud

the aborting of these fetuses who are engaging in sinful acts. I just don't understand the rules of religion, I guess.

8. This is the same party that wants to outlaw all sex that is not done for procreation.

Hell, in dissenting from the Lawrence decision, Scalia [link:http://bigthink.com/praxis/supreme-irony-justice-scalia-on-broccoli-masturbation-and-the-constitution|had a full-blown conniption fit at the idea that Government might not be allowed to "outlaw masturbation".

I'm completely confused by this.

10. Next: All dancing will be outlawed because

it's really having sex while standing up.

[Scootaloo]

11. No, no, you have it all wrong

Sex is forbidden because it might lead to dancing. Jeeze, get it right.

9. He does look like an expert...

...at masturbating; A master-masturbater, as it were. He would be able to recognize masturbation when he watches it on video; even being done by a prepubescent boy or prenatal boy as the case might be.

One would wonder why someone who apparently hates women would pursue a career in women's reproductive health?
It might be similar to a Jewish scholar studying the Holocaust or An African American writing a doctoral thesis on the Old Slave Market in Charleston South Carolina. In order to fill the student's perceived need for preventing what they think are mistakes of the past.



Excuse Me, after typing this I feel the need to wash my hands for two hours. Back in a bit.

12. Just when I thought repubs couldn't get more bizzare... This guy takes the cake. n/t
