Fake Libertarian Massie's Got His Hand Up Your Vagina Just Like All the Other Freakazoids

Northern Kentucky repug congress critter Thomas Massie loves to flash his teabagger, faux-libertarian creds: He has a solar-powered-house!  That runs his electric car!  He's hip and with-it!

Unless you're poor, black, gay, muslim ... or female.


Yeah, sure those culture wars are definitely over:
The House on Wednesday voted to ban most abortions after 20 weeks of pregnancy, approving a revised version of a bill that Republican leaders abruptly pulled in January amid objections from some of their own members.

The measure passed in a 242-to-184 vote, with one member voting present. The bill dropped a provision in the original version that would have required women who became pregnant through rape to report their assault to law enforcement authorities to be eligible for an abortion after 20 weeks of pregnancy.

Under the new bill, such women would have to receive counseling or medical treatment at least 48 hours before having an abortion. In cases involving minors, abortion providers would have to alert the authorities for the girls’ protection. The bill, known as the Pain-Capable Unborn Child Protection Act, would also make it easier to sue a noncompliant abortion provider.

“No matter how it is shouted down, or what distortions, deceptive what-ifs, distractions, diversions, gotchas, twisting of words, changing the subject or blatant falsehoods the abortion industry hurls at this bill and its supporters,” said Representative Trent Franks, the Arizona Republican who introduced the measure, “this bill is a deeply sincere effort, beginning at their sixth month of pregnancy, to protect both mothers and their pain-capable unborn babies from the atrocity of late-term abortion on demand.”
Thank you daddy for protecting women from themselves.

Meanwhile, with their hands firmly implanted in women's vaginas, they went on to denounce big government and federal interference in their wallets.
