Pro-Choice People Dream of a World Where All Babies Are Aborted, Says Ridiculous Governor

Just as zombies crave the delicious chewy flesh of the human brain, so too do pro-abortion rights people crave nothing more than to abort the shit out of every pregnancy. We're like hormonal teenagers. We'll abort anything that walks. All day we dream about abortion. At least, according to Mississippi Governor and personhood advocate Phil Bryant.

Bryant's "liberals & abortion sittin' in a tree" speech came during an appearance on a conservative radio program. During the softball interview, the governor was asked to defend a law he just signed that would impose new restrictions on the state's only abortion clinic. The new law will require all doctors who perform abortions to be board-certified OB-GYNs and have admitting privileges at a local hospital, and it was written under the guise that this was somehow promoting women's safety. Problem is, the three doctors operating out of Jackson's abortion clinic are already board-certified, and because two of them fly in from out of state and the clinic doesn't have enough complications to justify admitting privileges, local hospitals won't grant the two non-local doctors the certification they need to be legally allowed to practice in-state. Barring judicial injunction, once the law goes into effect on July 1, women in Mississippi's access to abortion will be even more threatened than it already is.
