Anti-Choice March Madness: The Worst State for Women
Mother Jones ^ | By Kate Sheppard, Jaeah Lee, and Tasneem Raja

Posted on 03/22/2013 7:17:40 PM PDT by ConservativeStatement

Despite being Women's History Month, March has seen relentless attacks on ladies' rights. As soon as one state passes some outrageous woman-restricting bill, another is right behind with something even, well, outrageous-er. The "state-by-state race to the bottom on women's health," as the president of Planned Parenthood put it, inspired us to set up our own March Madness bracket to determine the national champion in the War on Women.

The grammar from so-called professional writers is atrocious. And how is an executive at a human slaughterhouse qualified to comment on women’s health?

I’d like to abort all the writers and commenters at Mother Jones!

I was in New York earlier this week. A TV crew was interviewing a person. Though I am not sure the topic, after the sign off, I heard the reporter tell the person “You know your sh*t...” Lovely.

I should add that the interview was conducted in public, on a street.

I remain mystified by the fact that despite two-decades of constant F-bombs spewing from Hillary Clinton as attested by many, none of these utterances has ever been recorded and/or disclosed. Even Big Brother didn’t have this kind of compliant media.

South Carolina didn’t qualify - a familiar pain, I assure you.

Since they are so much for abortion, shouldn’t they change the name “Mother” Jones? Are you still a mother if you kill your kid?

The Worst State for Unborn Babies: California

In 2009 (the most recent year for which CDC data is available), California, Delaware, Maryland, and New Hampshire did not provide abortion reports to the federal government.

Since California has not complied with CDC requests for abortion data in many years, and since California accounts for more abortions than any other state in the U.S, CDC totals are routinely incomplete.

The state with the highest pct. per capita of radical feminists is probably the worst state in the union.

I wonder why it never occurred to them that abortion is something men want, too. More than women, probably.
