Something else to bitch about
We have all been so busy talking about the mayoral elections these past few weeks, I think that we have forgotten that there are plenty of State-of-Louisiana issues that we can complain about, too. Take a deep breath and prepare to turn your focus a tad more outward for a moment: State abortion ban goes to House floor (From From The Times-Picayune).

This issue makes me so mad my roots turn brown. I feel like having an abortion just to show Ben Nevers that he will NEVER tell me what to do!

Laurie, are you suggesting some legislation is in order to protect the unborn fetuses from being knocked out of the womb by a hurricane or is your last comment just completely out of context and off-topic?
The one redeeming feature:
“Nevers emphasized that the bill, if passed, would not take effect unless the Roe v. Wade decision legalizing abortion is overturned by the U.S. Supreme Court, or a federal constitutional amendment banning abortion is passed.”
Otherwise, I’d suggest we line ‘em up on the river levee and throw ‘em to the snapping turtles. As it is, though, they’ve shown a sliver of foresight and restraint. Maybe we should just pick ‘em off one by one…
I was on my way daily visit to NOAA when some how I ended up there?
I haven’t read this article yet, but I’m planning on it.

1-Why are men writing these assinine laws?
2-Didn’t these people learn a thing from the
Katrina was God’s punishment crap?
3-What are God fearing laws doing in there in the first place?

Richard points out the same thing I was going to say, that the law would not take effect unless Roe vs. Wade is overturned (or that other thing).
I’m thinking, house committees and state senators aren’t keen on wasting their time on lost causes. They might know something we don’t. There’s a behind the scenes movement going on, and I don’t like it. (Believe me, I hope I AM wrong.)
“Nevers emphasized that the bill, if passed, would not take effect unless the Roe v. Wade decision legalizing abortion is overturned by the U.S. Supreme Court, or a federal constitutional amendment banning abortion is passed.”
Seen the SCOTUS lineup recently?
Why do we, along with South Bloody Dakota, have to be the state precedents?
“Misplaced priorities” - something at which this state excels.
If we make enough noise we don’t.

Well, we ovary toting individuals need more information?
