Alito: a woman needs her husband's permission for an abortion

[ochazuke]

He said that a woman needs to get her husband's permission to have an abortion.

Should he need his permission to go to the bathroom, Judge? I mean, if a woman can't have control over her own uterus, why should she have control over her bladder? She might be pissing out some stem cells there. All those potential babies going down the toilet.

Oh, the humanity!

1. You must be kidding.

If not, hook me up with a Canadian immigration attorney right away. This smacks of Taliban fundamentalism.

2. Yeah, it's sarcasm

or irony.

lots of that here on DU. Liberals are a sarcastic lot. I know that makes life difficult, because, without hearing the tone of voice, you can't tell if the meaning is the face-meaning or its exact opposite.

Isn't that WON-derful? :D

5. Al Franken was funny yesterday on this point.

He said something like "Yeah, and a man should have to get his wife's permission for his mistress to have an abortion, also!"

Shoves it right in their face.
