No, No, Babette

Oh brave new world, that has such people in it!


Pennsylvania state rep. Babette Josephs on what makes a woman a real woman (hint -- you must love, above all else, something that starts with 'a' and ends with 'bortion'):
During her remarks, she blasted women lawmakers who co-sponsored the ultrasound bill, asking rhetorically, “What are they? Women, or are they men with breasts?” according to supporters of the bill who watched the rally.

Josephs stood by her words after the rally, arguing that the women lawmakers on the bill – sponsored by Rep. Kathy Rapp of Warren County — are acting like women only in the sense “that they will do what the men tell them.”

“They must believe that they are not capable of making their own health care choices, but they are capable of voting on bills that control all of our behavior,” Josephs continued. “I don’t understand it …

“I don’t believe they’re really women. … I believe they’re men with breasts.”
Sheesh. There are a lot of things I could say here but what would be the point?

It would be unkind to repeat #2 son's pithy observations on Rep. Josephs. She probably can't help it.

  2. Oh my. Men with breasts. I'm not sure I ever saw a pithier definition of a feminist.

  3. Think I'd be in the medical journals for delivering 10 babies if that were the actual case.
