Iowa -- Behold your future

It's the Handmaid's Tale:

Last month, after an upsetting phone conversation with her estranged husband, Ms. Taylor became light-headed and fell down a flight of stairs in her home. Paramedics rushed to the scene and ultimately declared her healthy. However, since she was pregnant with her third child at the time, Taylor thought it would be best to be seen at the local ER to make sure her fetus was unharmed.

That's when things got really bad and really crazy. Alone, distraught, and frightened, Taylor confided in the nurse treating her that she hadn't always been sure she'd wanted this baby, now that she was single and unemployed. She'd considered both adoption and abortion before ultimately deciding to keep the child. The nurse then summoned a doctor, who questioned her further about her thoughts on ending the pregnancy. Next thing Taylor knew, she was being arrested for attempted feticide. Apparently the nurse and doctor thought that Taylor threw herself down the stairs on purpose.


Um, what?

Behold your Republican...yet somehow still proclaimed Galtian future!

Sure, but Rand Paul is sick and tired of his toilets.

Rand Paul can go shit in the woods, it's what a "real libertarian" would do.

She should have told them she was schizophrenic (conflicting emotions would have been a good tip off). Not only would they not have detained her....... They would have given her a shiny new Glock.
