I am so confused.
Am I a Socialist, a Communist, Facist, or a Nut Job Dictator?????
Georgia State Rep. Compares Pro-Choice to Qadaffi
posted by: Robin Marty
What to dictators and the pro-choice movement have in common? They both like to kill millions of innocents. Get it? Get it?
If you don't think the comparison is apt, there's a very strong possibility that you did not vote for Rep. Bobby Franklin of Georgia, who made that very comparison on his Facebook page this weekend.
Via Think Progress:
Yet as Georgia Politico’s Dustin Baker notes, one state legislator raised a particularly odd objection to the No Fly Zone on his Facebook page. Reacting to a news article about Western strikes in Libya, Franklin asked, "How would we like it if other countries launched attacks upon these United States because of our regime's war against the unborn?" -- seemingly drawing a moral equivalency between Libya's Qadaffi dictatorship and legal abortion in the United States.
Of course, this is the same man who wants to investigate all miscarriages as potential "prenatal murder." And his state did just try to do a sneak anti-abortion bill that would have essentially eliminated all abortion by forcing women to go to hospitals to get the procedure.
Just imagine if Franklin ever gets voted into a national office.
