Special Vagina Unit

Ladypeople, Indiana Republicans would like a look at your insides

Are you fucking kidding me?
Coming to a state near you!

Covering an Indiana State Senate hearing yesterday, the essential Indianapolis Star reporter Mary Beth Schneider had a question: Would the Republican-sponsored bill being discussed by the committee, on the use of abortion-inducing drugs, require women to undergo a vaginal ultrasound? Because this kind of thing is more usually private, she then explained for the guys in her Twitter audience what, exactly, a vaginal ultrasound was.

The Indiana Senate committee ended up passing the bill, with all Democrats and one Republican voting no. And Schneider learned that the answer to her question of whether Indiana would require women to undergo vaginal probing is yes, times two. From her report in the Indy Star:

Women obtaining an abortion-inducing drug would be required to undergo an ultrasound before and after taking the drug under a bill approved Wednesday by an Indiana Senate committee.

Though the bill doesn’t specify that it be a transvaginal ultrasound, in which a several-inch-long probe is inserted in the woman, that’s exactly what Indiana would be requiring, said Dr. John Stuts*man, an Indiana University School of Medicine professor and obstetrician-gynecologist....

While the woman is not required to keep that [second] appointment, the physician must make a “reasonable effort” to ensure she does.


Imagine for a moment that second phone call, where the doctor's office tries to coax the woman back in for a second medically unnecessary invasive ultrasound. When these vaginal probe bills have come up, people have had little trouble picturing them for the interwebs.

Listen, when you are all wearing your burkas, as god intended, the vag probe will be necessary because how will we be able to tell what's going on inside your mysterious lady bits?

I hope I am not the only person who sees fundamentalism alive and well here int the good ol' US of A. Maybe we could call those folks Am Qaida.

Since women are the majority, you better get your shit together and deal with the traitors in your ranks. The traitors that collude with these wackos, the traitors that can't be bothered with politics, the traitors that only vote in Presidential elections, if at all.

I've said repeatedly, the Presidential election was a distraction, a dog&pony show, to keep you from noticing the push by the far right to take governorships and state legislatures. To gerrymander state voting districts, and pass legislation to control your ladybits like you could never imagined.

Your righteous indignation after the fact is cute. Now either get off your ass and make a difference... or make the guys a sandwich.

sing with me now:



Official English


O Canada!
Our home and native land!
True patriot love in all thy sons command.
With glowing hearts we see thee rise,
The True North strong and free!
From far and wide,
O Canada, we stand on guard for thee.
God keep our land glorious and free!
O Canada, we stand on guard for thee.
O Canada, we stand on guard for thee.

Or, for those of us who don't want to move to the Bullshit Canada:

Ô Canada!
Terre de nos aïeux,
Ton front est ceint de fleurons glorieux!
Car ton bras sait porter l'épée,
Il sait porter la croix!
Ton histoire est une épopée
Des plus brillants exploits.
Et ta valeur, de foi trempée,
Protégera nos foyers et nos droits.
Protégera nos foyers et nos droits.

You have no idea how long I've wanted to occupy a vagina. Or even just a visit.
