Or, the lamentations of the wingnuts

How embarrassing for the entire right wing blogosphere.

They worked so very hard to spin the Virginia uterus inspection bill, even denying that trans-vaginal ultrasounds were mandated at all. A few examples from the wingnut echo chamber:

Ed Schultz Falsely States Transvaginal Ultrasounds Are Mandated in VA Law - Big Journalism
Weasel Zippers » Blog Archive » Study: 99% Of Abortion Clinics Perform Ultrasounds Prior To Performing An Abortion…
The Left’s outrageous outrage at a proposal to require ultrasounds before abortion « Hot Air
Dahlia Lithwick Hates Medical Research | RedState
Dahlia Lithwick’s Sonogram Lie Implodes | RedState

And then, Gov. Bob McDonnell goes and blows their whole flimsy boat of rationalizations right out of the water by backing down and amending the bill to exclude invasive ultrasounds.

How very, very embarrassing. If they were capable of embarrassment, that is.

Here’s a pre-debate thread to savor the lamentations of the wingnuts.

 Frank says:

Did anybody dance? -- Said after performing the highly, shall we say, evolved "Black Page #2" on "Zappa In New York". (And as you probably already know, this was the song that alerted FZ to the existance of his stunt guitarist to be,Steve Vai, after recieving a sheet music transcription of the song, made by young master Vai.)
