The rational members of the Republican party need to stop its slide into complete *ssholery by checking its Florida leadership. The state is quickly becoming the laughing stock of politics. Witness this (it’s not satire, people):
During last week’s discussion about a bill that would prohibit governments from deducting union dues from a worker’s paycheck, state Rep. Scott Randolph, D-Orlando, used his time during floor debate to argue that Republicans are against regulations — except when it comes to the little guys, or serves their specific interests.At one point Randolph suggested that his wife “incorporate her uterus” to stop Republicans from pushing measures that would restrict abortions. Republicans, after all, wouldn’t want to further regulate a Florida business.
Apparently the GOP leadership of the House didn’t like the one-liner.
They told Democrats that Randolph is not to discuss body parts on the House floor.
Uterus?! Why is this offensive – it’s the home of the precious fetus? Can Randolph say “arm” or “leg”, or are we only talking about women’s parts that the GOP finds offensive? What about “breast”? “Vagina”? Or perhaps they would like to substitute vajayjay and pee-pee for naughty bits? Come on, you dolts, this is like something out of the Onion it’s so juvenile.
Too bad I missed out on incorporating my uterus before it was taken out last November. Could I have gotten a tax break in FL?

Does that mean none of the membership can speak?Or does it mean that a**holes are allowed to speak, they just cannot say what they are?
What ever happened to ‘Freedom of Speach’?
ROTFLMGAO…“incorporate her uterus”
That’s the best come back ever to the Uterus Police. Perfectly puts it into a perspective that the corporate lapdogs can appreciate. They understand that it’s always hands off anything corporate in nature.
Why is this offensive, Pam? Because it’s smart, intelligent, and reality based. Plus, it might be a back door maneuver to get some modicum of biologically based sex education into the minds of the youth of Florida. And we all know that the one thing conservative fundamentalists simply will now stand for is educating the public beyond a first grade level.
The Victorian Era is long over.Except in the United States. Ugh.
The republicans I have met throughout my 50 year tenure on this planet, are grown up bois with no scientific education, background or even interest. As long as the vagina massages them to climax and their wives continue to suppport them being grown up bois, this will continue to happen. Women comprise the majority of the electorate. Why don’t they do something about these jokers?
Needless to say, the GOP leadershipThought Of The Children, pointing out that there were pages in the legislative chamber as a reason not to say “uterus”.
To these Republicans the “scientific” term would be Womb.
But then their science book is the Bible.

What?Who said they’ve grown up, M4M? They still act like girls have cooties and have icky parts they’d rather not think about.
