re: #76 HappyWarrior

The personhood amendment resembles the one that failed in Mississippi via referendum. Virginia is nowhere near as conservative as Mississippi is. This is clearly the socons thinking this is what we Virginians want. Again I’ll warn those again if Bob McDonnell ever seeks the nomination, do not be fooled by him. He’s not a moderate Republican at all.

For those who missed it…

it is difficult to distinguish a law requiring women to be vaginally penetrated by a long metal object from state-sponsored rape. Worse, discussions among lawmakers leave little doubt that its supporters understood just what they were trying to write into law — they just didn’t care. As an unnamed lawmaker told a fellow Virginia delegate, a woman already consented to being “vaginally penetrated when they got pregnant.”
