[On what circumstances South Dakota should allow an abortion to be performed}
BILL NAPOLI: A real-life description to me would be a rape victim, brutally raped, savaged. The girl was a virgin. She was religious. She planned on saving her virginity until she was married. She was brutalized and raped, sodomized as bad as you can possibly make it, and is impregnated. I mean, that girl could be so messed up, physically and psychologically, that carrying that child could very well threaten her life

Wait, he left out the fact that it must also be the second (or preferably third) full moon in the same month, never happen on days that end in "Y," the pregnant woman must own at least three dogs where one is named “Jake,” the street the woman lives on can be no more than six blocks long and not contain any vowels in its name, the sun must be eclipsed at least partially (full eclipse preferred) during the day of the procedure, the Missouri river must flow upstream for a period not to exceed 36 minutes, and the aborted fetus must be shellacked and worn around the patient’s neck as a warning to anyone else who thinks they might want to exercise their right to control their own body/destiny.
Let's not forget women who have/had ectopic (a.k.a. tubal or extrauterine) pregnancy, incomplete miscarriage, missed miscarriage, spontaneous miscarriage, and molar pregnancy. Those women don't deserve to live if they can't carry a viable fetus! It's much better for the woman to get an infection and die because the fetus wasn't removed fully and properly.
I've never understood the view that abortion is alright if the pregnancy was the result of rape or incest. If one believes abortion is murder, then it's murder not matter how conception happened. More religious double-speak.
Peachy,
This guy caused a few naughty words to spew from my mouth with his comments.
I hate to ever feel a need to say this, but I think that Senator Bill Napoli needs to get raped, sodomized (but not as badly as you can possibly make it) and impregnated. Maybe the fucker would learn better from that.
I've noticed on several blogs that this guy is becoming a word:
So atheist rape victims should be barred from abortions, since they wouldn't be as messed up, physically and psycologically, as a religious girl.
What a dickhead. Because if she wasn't sodomized, or religious, or a virgin, she wasn't really raped.
Well, I certainly agree with Mr Napoli's assertion that the grounds he describes here would be adequate justification for rape. But, since the actual problem we face is deciding where the limit should be drawn somewhere in the middle of a continuum, giving us an extreme example as far away from the grey area as possible doesn't help resolve matters one bit.
Holy shit, that was one hell of a mistype (or a Freudian slip, maybe) in my last post, #403908. I meant "abortion", not "rape" at the end of the first sentence - I hope this is obvious from the rest of the text! Gawd, I need to get more sleep.
Wow, evidentally you have to go through the most horrible experience the Fundie assholes can possibly think up to get an abortion.
Oh, AND they have to live up to whatever feminine stereotypes you want them to, or it was deserved.
Even the most imaginative, torturous description of Hell is too good for you, Bill.

Easy answer her dad and the pastor don't count
I've commented on this before in a previous thread, but I'll do it again. There are so many holes in his theory it lets water when it rains. If they weren't sodomized, it wasn't rape? How do you determine if the girl fits your damn stupid criteria?
So female who is: atheist, agnostic, any religious denomination other than Christianity, non-virginal single, cohabiting, widowed, a spinster, disabled, married, divorced, destitute, mentally ill, had been raped before, or is a prostitute is somehow deserving of rape and an unwanted pregnancy because they don't fit your wet-dream definition of "chaste"?
How the hell did you become a senator with that massive Madonna/whore complex you have?
so if he would allow it under certain circumstaqnces, then it's only a matter of where you draw the line, rather than exclude the opttion all together. It's purely a subjective decision then, open to challenge, and accusations of partiality.
Because only virginal Christians have any true feelings, everyone else is like, meh, rape, I need a cup of tea. Fucktard.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
