Holy fucking crank dancing christ on a cracker! Not satisfied with the draconian legislation outlawing abortions after 20 weeks and effectively shutting down all but 5 women's health clinics that provide abortion services, three Texas refuckingpublicans have proffered the following:
Texas Legislators File Radical ‘Fetal Heartbeat’ Bill To Ban Abortion After Just Six Weeks

I am so sick of these bastards. They are not pro-life; they are forced-birthers who see women as nothing more than breeding vessels. As Randi Rhodes says, they love the fetus and hate the child, and the mother for that matter. They are using The Handmaid's Tale as a guidebook.
This goes beyond trying to impose their moral view of pregnancy and life begins at conception philosophy on the rest of Texas; they are interfering with the medical decisions that ultimately have to be made between a woman and her healthcare provider with regards to any pregnancy. What will they demand next? Will they get to dictate diet during pregnancy? How many times a woman can pee in a day while pregnant? Whether or not a woman can take a Tum's for heartburn or use Preparation H for the hemmoroids? What about pre-eclampsia - can that be treated or is it "God's will" as well and shouldn't be interfered with?
These morally repugnant assholes are DANGEROUS to women's health and the independence and autonomy of the individual that they claim to love. The people of Texas, both the women and the men who love and respect them, and the rest of us, need to get on this and get LOUD!
