Psychotic WI Senate President Breaks Gavel – Women To Be ‘Educated’ By Vaginal Probe



http://aattp.org/psychotic-wi-senate-president-breaks-gavel-women-to-be-educated-by-vaginal-probe/

In this disturbing video we’ll see just how insane the TEA/GOP are when it comes to controlling women. Wisconsin Senate President Mike Ellis blew his top, screaming and yelling at Democrats who opposed a bill which forces women to submit to an invasive vaginal ultrasound to ‘educate’ them about the pregnancy. Yes, folks this is the “small government” Tea Party-types for you. This is not about reducing abortions but about controlling women. TEApublican misogyny in full swing. The bill, SB 206, passed 17-15 with all Republicans in support and all Democrats against. SB 206 now heads to the Assembly, which was expected to pass it on Thursday. Gov. Scott Walker said Tuesday he would sign it into law.

to counteract that. I don't see it happening though. I think the pendulum is starting to swing back to the left and this is just the last gasp of the extreme right.

Is right out the window when Talk turns to Politics In my Friends and family category. They always expect me to be a old white guy Blue collar conservative. I do work a blue collar position, And yes I'm and older white Guy, so I guess I look the part. So their is sometimes expressed Shock at My Left leanings.
I really hurt her conservative Father's feelings one evening when He Said, "CEO's should not earn any more than 10X what the lowest paid worker is getting." I told Him that was very Liberal of him to say so. He was visibly upset that I said this. I hope it gave him something to think about. However when The Wife Gives me the "Harry Eye", I know it's time to end any Political discussion.

So, My Experience has been Those employers closer to the bottom understand what it cost to survive, and pay like it. So Their next straw man argument is? These poor mistaken folks, I feel sorry for them. They are tools of the of the 1%, as such they are members of a cult and need deprogramming.

Not that I ever voted for them in the first place. But I think it's going to come down to setting some shit on fire to get their attention, that they can only push us so far before we push back, and hard.

If the sane among us continue to stay at home on election day in nearly as great of numbers as they turn out to vote, this will soon be the face of our government on every level. Then this kind of insanity will become the norm for our society.

Sane people simply have to turn out and vote.

29. How many of the 32 Wisconsin state senators are MEN ???
Tue Sep 17, 2013, 03:22 AM

Women in Wisconsin should take this grievance/petition
to Federal Court. In all branches of our government --
local, state and Federal -- men comprise an overwhelming
majority. Such as in this case (and throughout the country),
the majority (men) is trampling over the civil rights of a
minority (women.) The Constitution forbids this sort of thing.

And, finally, the truth comes out: it ain't about good medical
care or safety, it's all about "teaching women a lesson" and
having the sadistic joy of a shaming ceremony.
It ain't about small government, either; it's about forming
THEIR government -- the type they dream of (fascistic.)
This guy is an unrestrained rage-machine, full of hate and
vengeance.

The seeds of fascism are sprouting into tall weeds in this
once-democratic country.
