Kamala Harris Compares Alabama Abortion Law To ‘The Handmaid’s Tale’
Huff PO ^ | May 16, 2019 | Elyse Wanshel

To Sen. Kamala Harris (D-Calif.), the truth out of Alabama seems stranger than fiction.

In response to the state’s Senate passing the country’s strictest abortion bill on Tuesday, Harris sent a fundraising email in which she asked people to organizations that provide money for abortion service and fight for reproductive rights — rather than her own campaign. She also compared the bill to the Margaret Atwood novel and Hulu series “The Handmaid’s Tale,” in which fertile women are enslaved, raped and forced to birth babies for childless couples.

“This isn’t a scene from The Handmaid’s Tale,” Harris wrote Wednesday. “This is happening in Alabama — in our country — in the year 2019.”

The senator criticized state lawmakers who voted to pass the Human Life Protection Act, which, if signed in to law, would make performing an abortion at any stage of pregnancy a felony offense. The only exception is if the pregnancy threatens the life of the pregnant woman. Doctors could be sentenced to up to 99 years in prison if they performed the procedure.

“This is a blatant attack on Roe v. Wade,” Harris said in her email. “It is a direct attack on women across our country. Restricting access to safe, legal abortion puts women’s lives at risk.”

Yo Heels-Up!!

It's called representative government, something you Communists in Mexifornia are unfamiliar with. The legislature is doing the will of the citizens of Alabama. Sorry if it disappoints you, hehehe.

That last part was a lie. I'm delighted that the citizens and the legislature in Alabama are acting against the murder of the unborn.

Kamala Harris can live in her fantasy world on the Unicorn Farm. Most Americans are not buying it. Most Americans have a realistic opinion on promiscuous behavior. It is a practical matter: preventing unwanted pregnancy. Sex without discipline is only selfish gratification. There is a responsible need for self discipline and not thinking of the opposite sex as a means for ones selfish ends. Using sex as a means for your political ambitions is reckless and a recipe for unwanted pregnancy.

In 2007 I wrote a vanity of which I remain very proud (apart from the misspelling in the headline and the screwing up of the date). I think it starkly illustrates the depths to which the Democrat party has descended on the issue of baby killing and no one better personifies that descent into hell then Ruth Ginsburg.

Here's that vanity

Democrats are promoting the migration from abortion to killing babies. Trust me, old people, handicapped, mentally ill, feeble, you’re next.

We’ve seen this movie before, but they don’t teach history anymore.

I compare Kamel Harris to a washed up B list porn star.

so, Harris’ first reaction is to promote a Hollywood movie. That says a lot about who is actually the so-called “brains” behind the democrat party.

I never saw Handmaid’s tale and do not ever intend to.

It is infuriating that the title of this movie parallels the Angelus:

V: Behold the handmaid of the Lord

R Be it done unto me according to they word.

The whole premise of the plot is lies.

I saw the movie and for anyone interested, my take was, the women have the power, the men just don’t know it. Certainly if Kamala actually saw this movie, instead of asserting the sex-baiting title, she would know and recognize herself in the Handmaids Tale. Especially the part where a secret world of some women are invited into a somewhat normal existence with powerful men. They become their party girls, their confidants and of course, sexual partners, thus KAMALA HARRIS’S life in a nutshell.

The Handmaids Tale has absolutely nothing to do with abortion. It is about a post apocalyptic world, (probably caused by liberal women) where some people are left sterile. Pregnancy, birth and women are paramount to survival.

Thousands believe “The Handmaid’s Tale” is non-fiction. A bunch of loonies.

The Leftists at HBO plowed all of that money into a kook production for a reason.

Hyperbole much, Kamaltoe?
