21. Pro-lifers convinced themselves that only nasty slutty women die. They elected a bunch of pig ignorant

…men who listened stonefaced to shaken women explaining everything from ectopic pregnancies to anencephalic fetuses, and equally stonefaced they sat in front of women weeping over their own near-deaths.

Their minds were made up. They rejoiced in their ignorance and in their power of life and death over women and little girls.

Well, those chickens are coming home to roost. I hope the Susan Collins types who enabled such men are swept from office in the same tidal wave that takes out the rest of the GOP.
