Come join me on this journey in which I find out the 237 ways to be me. Many of these 237 ways are things that should not copied. To learn more about the number itself, go to the 'About 237' page.
Alright, you stupid motherfuckers, listen up.
I know it’s easy to look at this cartoon and go OH WAIT REPUBLICANS ARE BAD. Have any of you actually read the bill? Go right ahead, it’s located here.
Now, I know that if you actually took this cartoon and the media at face value, you don’t have the brains to figure out how to read a pdf, so let me break it down for you.
Section 301: The federal government will not pay for your abortion.
Section 302: The federal government will not help you pay for a health care plan that includes abortion.
Section 303: The federal government will not give you a tax benefit on medical expenses (see: money) related to having an abortion.
Section 304: The federal government will not provide facilities or employees to perform your abortion.Section 309: Sections 301, 302, 303, and 304 do NOT apply if:
1. You were forcibly raped.
2. You are a minor and a victim of incest.
3. You would otherwise die if you do not have an abortion.This means, and read this next sentence, the federal government will continue to do what it is already doing (pay for your abortion, pay towards your health care for an abortion, provide tax benefits for your abortion, and provide facilities and employees for your abortion) if your situation meets the above criteria.
Section 309 DOES NOT IN ANY WAY define rape. It defines circumstances under which the federal government will CONTINUE TO SUPPORT YOU.
In other words, the federal government (see: taxpayers) should not have to fund your abortion unless you were raped, a victim of incest, or would otherwise die.
Any questions?
A little late, but appreciated anyway.
quite.
Just as conservatives tend to twist the liberal wording, liberals twist the conservative wording. It’s all a game. And you can never believe anything you hear or read on face value. Do your own research.
