Scott Walker Self-Destructs By Suggesting That Ultrasounds Are Like Selfies

Rob Thomas says he had no trouble coming up with the Quote of the Day for the Wisconsin Cap Times today in a piece titled, “In Case You Missed It: Scott Walker thinks ultrasounds are like a selfie for the womb”.

Trying to justify his 2013 law that forces women to undergo a medically unnecessary and costly ultrasound before they can exercise their constitutionally-protected freedom, Walker said:



(Snip)

Walker became an “immediate subject of derision for telling conservative talk show host Dana Loesch that mandatory ultrasounds are a ‘cool thing’— you know, a hot trend, like selfie sticks or dadbods.”

Who is going to tell the Republican governor and 2016 presidential candidate that the two ultrasound methods are very different? The one they used to get pictures of his sons is not the same as a transvaginal ultrasound. Maybe if he doesn’t know any better, he might want to hush up about it, because he is once again making a fool of himself. Also a note, doctors like to tell you that these are “painless”. And some women say that’s true. Others experience them as invasive and painful. (I wouldn’t recommend it for fun, for example, unlike… say…. a selfie.)

1. Maybe Scott Walker needs a whole slew of vaginal selfies

perahps it may help him tell the difference.

Even better, he could receive pics of giggling teens taking pic of themselves vs. a woman on a gurney with her knees in the air, her arm covering her face in embarassment and a tech about to push a dildo looking probe into her vagina.

2. + 10000 This ^

He knows damn well what it is.
His mocking statement says "women are stupid enough to buy my latest vaginal probe selling point."
Scott Walker is an Asshole.

3. Stupid Were The Eligible Female Wisconsin Voters Who

Stupid were the eligible female Wisconsin voters who either voted for Scott Walker or sat on their backsides and didn't bother to vote.

They got what they voted for. The rest of Wisconsin will get taken on the ride whether they wanted to go or not.

5. Either Ideologues Or

I can guess why many guys vote for guys like Walker. Excluding the Holy Joes, they are either members of the I've Got Mine school of political thought or, if they're shirtsleeve or struggling white-collar voters, they think that they're bullet-proof and cutting "big government" spending will help them keep more of their money. The fact that privateers will turn things like their pensions and health plans over to private corporations with far less oversight and accountability doesn't seem to make it to their prefrontal cortexes.

I suspect that I'd probably be one of the sorts who'd let someone else do my political thinking for me if it wasn't for the fact that I realized that I'd let people both on the left (Like those marvelous people in the peace community who said that the Khmer Rouge were merely agrarian reformers) and on the right (The ones who said that the old Republic of (South) Vietnam was a democratic regime) lie to me. I learned to put my visceral decision-making over to one side while I searched for facts and information from more trustworthy sources. Over the years I grew willing to let my shibboleths get shattered by inconvenient facts.

Letting one's shibboleths get shattered by inconvenient facts and combing through their wreckage for truth is not a trait of most American "Movement Conservatives."

As women voters who chose Walker, I suppose that either they have a tunnel-vision fixation on abortion, think that their husbands and children will provide for them even in case of injury or illness, or choose to avoid contemplating unpleasant possibilities.
