COLUMBUS, November 16, 2012 (LifeSiteNews.com) – The “War on Women” rhetoric received a new twist this week when Ohio State Senator Nina Turner showed up to a Planned Parenthood press conference wearing a t-shirt declaring that GOP stands for “get out of my panties.”
GOP, the other name for the Republican Party, is an acronym for “Grand Old Party.”
The press conference was called in response to renewed efforts to defund Planned Parenthood in the state, as well as to pass the “Heartbeat Bill,” which would ban abortion after the point when the unborn baby’s heartbeat is detectable.
Earlier this week the Ohio Health & Aging Committee voted to move forward a bill that would prioritize the state’s family planning funding away from abortion providers – effectively stripping Planned Parenthood of funding.
Turner reacted angrily to the proposal, telling those assembled at the press conference, “If they continue their pursuit to condemn women, we will not stand for it.”
“I have three words for the GOP: Get a grip,” said Turner. “We are not going back to the Dark Ages. We are not going to suppress our voice or our choice. And we are not going to forget.”
Turner accused the Republicans of being “arrogant” and “inebriated with power.”
Ohio Right to Life said that de-prioritizing Planned Parenthood simply makes good sense. “Planned Parenthood has a monopoly on public funding, but they provide only a fraction of health services to women in Ohio,” said Ohio Right to Life Legislative Director Stephanie Krider.
“Local health districts, community health centers and community action agencies provide a vast majority of health care services to low-income and uninsured women and that is where this funding will go,” Krider added.
Senator Turner stirred controversy earlier this year by introducing a protest bill making it more difficult for men to get a Viagra prescription – a response to the increasing volume of pro-life legislation in Ohio.
Democrats and abortion supporters have increasingly claimed the Republican Party’s pro-life position is an attack on women’s genitals.
Recent pro-abortion protests have featured women dressed up as giant vaginas, and Michigan legislators giving a public reading of The Vagina Monologues.
In a separate incident, legislators danced on the steps of the Michigan legislature while singing, “It’s My Vagina, So Hands Off Baby.”
During the recent presidential campaign, the official Obama tumblr account posted an e-card urging women to “vote like your lady parts depend upon it.”
In that case DNC stands for ‘don’t (k)nife (unborn) children.’
Gotta love these lefties....they are desperate to find someone who would even want to put their hands in their under ware....
We gotta ping Laz to find out
underwear....hands not working so great....
I don’t get this whole discussion. It is the government mandating health care. It is the government that is getting control of women’s health issues. We are not even talking about it. This whole thing is so damn frustrating.
They won’t be wearing tee shirts or panties in Hell.
Ack!
So she tells the GOP to get out of her panties but she just sold her whole body and soul to Obamacare.
Liberals are truelly INSANE.
Scientists with ten foot long probes wouldn't touch that even if they were to receive the Nobel Peace Prize for the next hundred years.
Do any of these little girls ever pay for their own damn crap?
They love to march around like they are so grown-up and independent, but they need someone to keep subsidizing all of this stuff.
“Get Out of my Panties”? Ok, start paying for them yourself.
“My Body. My Choice. Your Money.”
That stupid chick can’t spell
Get out of my panties = GOOMP
And according to this site:
http://www.dictionaryabc.com/Goomp
Goomp http://www.dictionaryabc.com/Goomp
A person that says random stupid things, that he/she even knows it’s random and dumb. They usually have a vulgar odor and aren’t cultured. The term “Goomp!” is usually used right after they say the stupid random thing.
So, there ya’ go...she’s a goomp
(bounces off me and sticks on you......;)
This woman is damned sick of this. If some women were more careful about WHO they let into their panties they wouldn’t need the government to UNDO what they did! It’s a uterus, not a clown car. The FIRST restriction of access is up to US.
It is going to be really funny to watch when these same people protesting for their reproductive rights begin supporting the government when it demands abortions as forms of population control or womens’ health needs.
You want others to pay for your birth control, you want others to pay for your abortions, and you want others to pay for youe “sex change” operations....
how exactly is that staying out of your panties?
“I have three words for the GOP: Get a grip,” said Turner. “We are not going back to the Dark Ages.
Yes you are. You want to kill babies.
Wouldn’t that be GOMP?
