Bill Napoli anti-choice anti-choice anti-choice religious nut hypocrisy
As I'm sure you're aware, South Dakota recently passed a bill banning abortion which contains no exceptions for cases involving rape, incest, or threats to a woman's health.

During an interview with PBS last week, State Senator Bill Napoli, who strongly backed the bill, was asked if he could think of a real-life scenario in which an exception may be made. Here's what he had to say:

   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.

So let me get this straight: Bill Napoli would still prohibit a woman from getting an abortion if she was a) raped but not brutally so - you know, by a kind, gentle rapist who is attentive to her needs, b) brutally raped, but not a virgin, c) brutally raped, but not religious, or d) not sodomized during the rape.

Yes folks, that is as screwed up as you think it is.
