The Democrat at the heart of the successful filibuster of a Texas bill to ban abortion after the 20-week pregnancy mark proved an above and beyond dedication to beating back the measure — she even wore a catheter.

Sen. Wendy Davis, 50, donned running shoes, a back brace and a urinary catheter in the walk up to her Tuesday filibuster that ultimately spanned 11 hours.

I rather like the one with the 21 week ole in utero baby grabbing the hand of the surgeon.

the abject ineptitude of TX Lt. Gov. Dewhurst, who couldn’t manage a Sunday School picnic, let alone a crowd of aging harpies who screamed for the killing of fully developed babies

That is DEAD ON, he looked like a deer in the headlights, an ineffectual little perfumed prince squeaking for order.

No wonder Cruz beat the clown.

These senators should have to watch a 20 week abortion procedure and be shown pics of 20 week old in-womb babies, before casting their votes.

Thanking God everyday that Ted Cruz is our Senator and that Dewberry is not.

This will be tame compared to what empowered liberal women will promote under President Elizabeth Warren/Michelle Obama/Hillary Clinton.

Next time around, someone should slip her a powerful diuretic and test the volume of that catheter bag.

They should have made her go to the point of exhaustion and then voted any damn way.

I hope it hurt. I hope it leaked. I hope she gets a UTI. And I mean that from the bottom of my heart. She is a putrid example of immoral womanhood and we should be digging every bit of dirt on her the way the left treats any woman on our side.

If a planned Parenthood doctor put in the catheter, she probably will get several diseases. From the life she has apparently led, she may have aids.

I bet she could now auction it off on ebay to bolster her re-election funds.

Though Wendy Davis may come your way,
She won’t water flowers to bloom in May
So if it’s raining, have no regrets,
Because it isn’t raining rain, you know,
(Hope she’s got some Towelettes)

That’s cheating. (Although I think that men may have an advantage when it comes to filibustering “fairly”.)
