Asshat can't believe that women can decide these things for themselves. For the women and girls in my circle of life, I would adamantly argue against letting the rapist's seed bear fruit. Their (right white religious wing) anti-choice views are deplorable!

I'm not sure how possessing a functional womb gives one special insight. Michele Bachmann's position is no different. If anything it's farther out into batshit crazy land than Rubio as she has consistently opposed abortion "100%", including when the mother's life is at risk.

I just get SO damn tired of these assholes trying to tell women what to do with their bodies.

I'm old enough to remember when a woman could go to jail for possessing a diaphragm or even a condom. Even today these <expletive deleted> are passing laws governing what consenting adults can and cannot do in the privacy of their own home. I remember when the concept of spousal rape did not exist in law. And I see these <expletive deleted> trying to roll back the gains that women have fought and died for. It is still less than 100 years since women even got the right to vote.

And when I hear some idiot saying that he can decide that a woman, who he has not and will never meet, who has been raped and gotten pregnant, should carry that baby to term, makes me want to commit violence.

The GOP has no problem finding women candidates who are forced birthers.

Such a leightweight turd. Honestly couldn't care less what this unqualified "pretty face bimbo" has to say about anything....anything. He's a "non-factor". His own stage of clowns will tear him apart with their jealous rage.

I'm anti-abortion....for me. But then again, I'm a 68 year old male. Not much chance that matters. But I'm 1000% pro choice, for me as well.

There is absolutely nothing pretty about Rubio, inside or out.

He is ugly to the core.

and catch an incurable, horribly painful, venereal disease from the rapist(s) and have to live with it every second of the remainder of his life. But I'm not, so I don't.

see, I don't think he does 'get it'

and his Supreme Court nominees would eventually reflect that 100%

and with that attitude, he'd veto anything with exceptions. He basically said as much. Only if he has no other options would he allow it, but he has his options and he'll do what he feels he has to do to control what women do with their own bodies

say that Rubio was in effect demanding women who have been raped and or
been victims of incest to have the baby as not allowing them to defend
themselves.

They are a wacko group of choices.
