The leftists are spinning away because they are afraid that if too many women see ultrasounds, the PP Mengele-cult won't rake in as many big bucks as before.

So allowing a woman to have the most information about what is going to happen to her during a medical procedure is “rape”? For people who believe in “choice”, they sure don’t think that an informed choice is a good one.

Wow, women who will let just about anything else be inserted up into them now balk against a small probe?

However, I wonder they can’t they just do typical non-invasive ultrasounds?

At any rate, I find it a waste of taxpayer dollars. These demonettes are going to kill their kids no matter what you tell or show them. They know damn well what they’re doing. Why show them, and then sit back and watch while they kill their children anyway. This just makes them more defiant over it.

The feminist play the rape card the way blacks play the race card.
It's a hot button word that trumps any further discussion and makes them the automatic winner.

Yep. Not to mention that they pride themselves on supposedly being the "Party of Science"...

I don’t agree... it seems that the more aware a person is as to exactly what is happening, the less likely they are to abort. I’m sure a certain percentage will still murder her own child, but I’m even more certain that another percentage will change her mind. And even one child saved is worth the cost.

She is nuts.That type of ultra sound is only used in high risk pregnancies in the very first few weeks.After about the time the woman would miss her first period they are no longer used except again in high risk and if they can’t find the baby as happens sometimes with a molar pregnancy or Blighted Ovum.

There are a lot of parallels between this issue and photo ID for voting.

The left doesn't want people identified. They prefer the cover of anonymity for their crimes.

Because ever since Roe v. Wade, the feminists have been telling women that an embryo is just a clump of cells, that until the second trimester, the fetus is totally unconscious.

This story demonstrates that the left and Planned Parenthood have no interest in reducing the number of abortions. Therefore, it can be correctly stated definitively that the political Left in this country is NOT “pro choice”, but “pro abortion”!

I wonder if she gets upset about the Obama policy that gave me a nearly transvaginal procedure at the Tampa Int’l airport from the TSA. The Fascist Left is mentally warped.

If they are against the transvaginal ultrasounds, they need to start squawking about PAP tests!

Behar, in an almost unique instance of honesty out of a leftist, stated the honest reason that they are outraged by this requirement -

it’s making someone face something they’ve already decided they don’t want to have to deal with.

Left unstated was the “issue” that they don’t want to deal with - the humanity of the “fetus” and the subsequent acknowledgement that terminating it is murder.

The abortion issue is 1% about future abortions
and 99% about not pointing out to those that have had abortions that they murdered a baby.

Those seeking an abortion should be required to have a valid ‘Member of Democratic Party’ card, even if it was just issued that morning.

Maybe we can just pretend that the ultrasound is the DUE PROCESS that must happen before the baby is deprived of his life. How about that?

Conservatism is about individual rights. You know the ones outlined in the Constitution; Life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. We are doing all we can to PROTECT the right of LIFE of an unborn child. Sorry if you have to have an ultrasound before you kill your baby.

We can’t overturn Roe VS. Wade right this second but we can have informed consent. Don’t believe the left. An abdominal ultrasound is all that will be needed. She will hear the heartbeat and she will know.

A woman should know that she has been lied to her entire life before she takes the life of her unborn child. I have friends that believed the lie that there was nothing there but a clump of cells. When they found out the truth they spiraled out of control. Better to be informed before hand and live with the consequences of your INFORMED decisions.

The whole issue here is to maintain the ability to deny the fact that the “fetus” IS a “life”.

And the issue is being driven not so much by those who think they might “need” an abortion in the future as it is driven by those that have had an abortion and seek to continue to deny the truth of what they did.

Oh. The famous liberal fall back position. It’s for the children!!!!!

For this same reason a school official can search through a child’s lunch box, or Michele Obama can dictate carrots and push-ups and a bureaucrat forces someone to buy insurance.....

As long as you say its for the children everything is ok.

“Maybe we can just pretend that the ultrasound is the DUE PROCESS “ You have to do a whole lot of pretending to turn this into small government conservatism. Liberals demand that we pay to provided free care, including prenatal care and we, with good reason, object.

You demand that this sort of care be forced on a woman without her consent and you want to call it conservative- no conservatism I’ve ever heard of.

Perhaps the problem comes from your not having a very good handle on the US Constitution. TO begin with “Life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness is the Declaration of Independence, not the Constitution.
