State Lawmaker Thinks Women Can Get Gynecological Exams by Swallowing Cameras

During a committee hearing Idaho State Rep. Vito asked Dr. Madsen, “Can this same procedure [used to perform colonoscopy] be done in a pregnancy — swallowing a camera and helping the doctor determine what the situation is with the child?”

""I’ve had the experience of delivering calves, dead and alive. Delivering pigs, dead or alive. It breaks our hearts to see those animals not make it,"said Republican Georgia State Representative Terry England...He then delivered an anecdote to the chamber in which a young man who was apparently opposed to legislation outlawing chicken fighting said he would give up all of his chickens if the legislature simply took away women’s right to an abortion."

"A lot of people think that carbon dioxide could be much higher and give us much benefit...."

Note: Chances that a raped woman conceives compared to one engaging in consensual sex: at least two times as likely

"In the emergency room they have what’s called rape kits where a woman can get cleaned out" - said Texas state Rep. Jodie Laubenberg, on why there shouldn't be a rape or incest exception in Texas' sweeping anti-choice bills.

"Rep. Michael Burgess, R-Texas, said Monday he is opposed to abortion because fetuses masturbate in the womb, and so can feel both pleasure and pain.

"Watch a sonogram of a 15-week baby, and they have movements that are purposeful," said Burgess, citing his experience as an OB/GYN, during a House Rules Committee hearing on a GOP bill that would ban abortions after 20 weeks. "They stroke their face. If they're a male baby, they may have their hand between their legs. If they feel pleasure, why is it so hard to think that they could feel pain?""

"I would hope that when a woman goes in to a physician with a rape issue, that physician will indeed ask her about perhaps her marriage, was this pregnancy caused by normal relations in a marriage or was it truly caused by a rape. I assume that's part of the counseling that goes on.”

"These rates shall only be determined using historical data, and these data shall be limited to the time period following the year 1900. Rates of seas-level rise may be extrapolated linearly …"
