Miss. Governor Won’t Rule Out Banning Contraception When Roe Falls


During an interview on CNN’s “State of the Union, Mississippi Gov. Tate Reeves (R) refused to rule out the possibility that his state may ban certain forms of contraception.  This was part of his attempt to sidestep any questions regarding exactly what Republicans plan to do next when Roe v. Wade is overturned.

Smart move, because everyone knows the best way to avoid people needing to have an abortion, would be to ban birth control.  Now, conservatives are always quick to point out that "The Constitution doesn't guarantee the right to have an abortion,” which is true.  On the other hand, the Constitution also doesn’t guarantee anyone the right to “scratch their ass” either.  Perhaps it’s time we “crackdown” on that too?


Now, in their defense, it’s not really Republicans’ fault that most conservatives don’t fully understand the need for birth control.  After all, they can just use their personalities for that.  That said, I understand why Gov. Reeves would be reluctant to fully commit to whether he supports banning birth control.  Fact is, the poor guy’s brain is only large enough to consider one ill-conceived idea at a time.


So, the great state of Mississippi, which has the nation's highest maternal mortality rate, wants to show the world how “Pro-Life” they are by defending religious freedom?  I guess that makes sense, assuming your model for “religious freedom” is Iran or Afghanistan.  You see, “religious freedom” to a Christian Supremacist means “we get to tell you how you’ll run your life, or else you’ll be going to prison.” 


Fun Fact: Catholic Ireland is now more progressive on abortion than the US.  That means if Republicans win the House and Senate this fall, women can expect to be basically reduced to “farm animal status.”  Meanwhile, Louisiana Republicans just advanced a bill to make abortion a homicide, while granting constitutional rights “from the moment of fertilization.”  Next up, ban masturbation and offer a bounty to anyone turning in a masturbator.  Hate to admit it, but if they set that bounty high enough - I just might have to turn myself in.

Trump Using Divisive Topics Like Plastic Straws to Energize Base

Trump Using Divisive Topics Like Plastic Straws to Energize Base:  Using tactics such as plastic straws, wind turbines, bogus conspiracy theories and race-baiting, White House aides freely admit that Donald Trump has been deliberately attempting to amplify public tensions in America by seizing on divisive issues as a means to energize his explosively angry base. Now, I know what some of you are thinking - you’re thinking “now this, is the last straw!”  Well, before you attack the “straw man,” remember that Donald Trump was that kid in school who thought it was simply hilarious to jam two straws up his nostrils.  Straws were an important part of Donald’s childhood, so it shouldn’t be a big surprise they remain so today.     What all you “elites" don’t understand is that Trump folks are all about fighting for “freedom.”  You know, the freedom to be morbidly obese, the freedom to destroy the environment, the freedom to live without affordable healt...

Green-Haired Turtle that Breathes Through Genitals Added to Endangered List

Green-Haired Turtle that Breathes Through Genitals Added to Endangered List:  The Mary River turtle of Queensland, Australia, which breaths through its genitals and sports a punky green Mohican hairdo, has been placed on a new list of the most vulnerable reptile species on the planet.  Now, of course, we’ve all known people who talk out of their ass, but come on - breathing through your genitals is quite a feat.  http://www.johnnyrobish.com Study Finds Flat Earth Believers Tend to Be Young:  A new survey found that 34 percent of 18- to 24-year-olds entertain some doubts about whether the Earth is actually round.  Good grief, sounds like we flat out need to see that these millennials get a more well-rounded education.  http://www.johnnyrobish.com Huge-Nosed Dinosaur Found in Utah:  Paleontologists have discovered a new dinosaur which had a humongous nose that lived 76-million years ago in what is now Utah.  Ironically, if ...

Trump Commutes Old Pal Roger Stone's Sentence

Trump Commutes Old Pal Roger Stone's Sentence:   After declaring Roger Stone a victim of the “Russia hoax” perpetuated by the Left and its allies in the media, President Trump has commuted the three-year prison criminal sentence for the Republican operative and dirty trickster, who was due to report to federal prison on Tuesday after being found guilty of obstruction, witness tampering and lying to Congress. Good grief, is it my imagination, or has Trump actually just pardoned the real-life version of the Monopoly guy?  I mean, Stone is a villain right out of Charles Dickens.  Why, this is an act so corrupt, it’s almost enough to make Kim Jong-un and Vladimir Putin blush. Now, I’m no legal expert, but it appears what the Trump Administration is basically arguing is that - someone shouldn’t be punished for committing a crime which “they really should’ve gotten away with.”  And while that may sound a bit odd to the rest of us, that kind of thinking makes go...
