State Senator Wendy Davis is a sweetheart. She is willing to carry justice on her shoulders. She is noble.
To be completely frank, this is getting disgusting. Perry and his peers in other states are able to get away with their political pandering because they are assaulting the rights of women and those unable to afford lawyers and lobbyists. It is called taking advantage of the disadvantaged.
These laws are a waste of taxpayers monies. They are unconstitutional, we all know it, the legislators know it and they do it for their political cronies that will dump lots of money into their coffers.
Roe v Wade is about women. It is not about babies. Roe v Wade has saved the lives of women. When these laws make it to the Supreme Court it will be found insufficient in protecting women's lives. In order to save a woman's life there has to be ACCESS to the clinics to obtain an abortion. These laws seek to close clinics and that is immoral and Un-American.
Abortions are vital aspects of a woman's life. A uterus are a management problem that falls square in the middle of a woman's survival. Uteri are very vascular and can be a dangerous organ and threat to a woman's life if there is an emergency with hormone levels, genetic defects of a fetus, spontaneous abortions, cancer and sometimes plain old dysfunction of an organ that just doesn't behave itself.
There is no equivalent in a man's life. There just isn't. Women know the perils of being a woman and it is up to them to protect and save their own lives. There is no prediction to the health needs of a woman. Abortions have to be available. This is an issue between a woman and her physician. No one else should even be in the picture.
It is very odd to hear Republicans defame President Obama and denigrate the Affordable Care Act stating it will diminish the quality of care in the USA, only to have the same Republicans deny women their right to a life free of burdens to obtain care. If these laws aren't death panels against women, I don't know what is.
These laws are wrong and I don't know what we would do without women like State Senator Wendy Davis.

...A lot more than the loss of abortion options for the women of Texas. Republican Gov. Rick Perry says he's fighting to protect the lives of unborn children, but he stands to hurt living, breathing Texans in the process.
Both men and women, particularly low-income minorities who are more likely to lack health insurance and medical-care options, rely on the "abortion clinics" for services like contraception, STD testing and even cancer screenings. One in four women in the state are uninsured.
"That is part of the concern that's getting drowned out in the abortions versus pro-life soundbite," Texas Rep. Trey Martinez Fischer (D) said during a Monday phone interview.
Right now, Texas has more than 40 clinics that not only perform abortions but also offer birth control and condoms. All but a handful will be prohibited from operating under the proposed bill. Those that could remain open are in a few urban areas, which would leave rural women with few options....
