Thread: Tenn. GOP congressman's wife had 2 abortions

  1. Default Tenn. GOP congressman's wife had 2 abortions

    http://news.yahoo.com/tenn-gop-congr...-election.html
    According to DesJarlais' testimony, the first of his ex-wife Susan's abortions was because she was taking an experimental drug that carried potential risks in pregnancy. The second came amid problems in their relationship.

    Well here we have another classic case of RW hypocrisy. Include his mistress, there's 3 abortions. RWers sure love to dish out morality.

    Wow... who publishes such personal information, even if it comes out in court.

    This is some very hateful journalism... and sad that anyone would repeat it.

    Not Cool.
    INEPTOCRACY - A system of government where the least capable to lead are elected by the least capable of producing, and where the members of society least like to sustain themselves or succeed, are rewarded with the goods and services paid for by the confiscated wealth of a diminishing number of producers.

    First one doesn't sound like an abortion...

    Still, I don't the relevancy of this...

    Even seeing that the second was obviously an abortion, this happened '01 or prior...

    People's minds change on things over time...

    I used to be anti-death penalty...

    Not so now...
    Peace.

    Had them...

    I can see how it would seem hypocritical, and, if any of these were recent (which, I don't know about the instance with the patient, but the testimony in question is from '01, I believe), it would, in fact, be hypocritical...

    That doesn't seem to be the case though...
    Peace.

    With their infernal racial set-asides, racial quotas, and race norming, liberals share many of the Klan's premises. The Klan sees the world in terms of race and ethnicity. So do liberals! Indeed, liberals and white supremacists are the only people left in America who are neurotically obsessed with race. Conservatives champion a color-blind society. -- Ann Coulter

    I am jack's righteous indignation....

    This may very well be why hes against abortion....which is hard to hold against him.

    Frankly I have more respect for his position knowing his has personally dealt with it.

    I disagree. It's kind of like drug policy.

    If you used to smoke a lot of pot back in college, it would be rather hypocritical to support the War on Drugs later.

    Changing your opinion on something might make sense if you were never personally involved in the issue, but if you took advantage of a choice that you're now advocating the end of... well, that is pretty hypocritical regardless of the time that has passed.

    Would Obama be better off having gone to jail for cocaine use? Would Bush? Of course not.

    By the same token, clearly, this Congressman's wife wouldn't have been better off going to jail for having an abortion.

    And some are given a chance to climb, but they refuse. They cling to the realm, or the gods, or love. Illusions.
    Only the ladder is real. The climb is all there is."
