St.Senator Burch is one terrifically brave person

And to have to suffer a tragic loss and be forced in a way to have to explain it rationally to the Arizona Legislature and the American people is doubly horrific. She is clearly a sophisticated, intelligent, careful and feeling woman.

. Now please allow me to tell you what I think someone else in the same position is going to need to do in order to break this logjam of repressive creeps. It might go exactly like this:

“I claim my five minutes Mr President. Now stop looking at your iPhones for a minute and meet my gaze, you slimy motherfuckers. Your whole political existences are predicated upon your so-called base loving your position on women’s reproductive rights as non-citizens. Today is different however…Hey Senator Jones, you slimy prick: turn around and look me in the eye and tell me that my doctor is obliged by your law to tell me about adoption when the organism inside me is as dead as a doornail. Yeah, YOU. SAY IT! And YOU Senator Smith: everyone in this chamber knows you were fucking your administrator and when she got pregnant, “with child” as you hypocritical assholes would say in one of your fake-moralistic diatribes, you sent her to the Adirondacks for a two week vacation which included a visit to the doctor for an “emergency D and C, right?”, likely paid out of your petty cash slush fund that we also all know about. Did you happen to mention this to your wife? No? Well she can watch the NBC Nightly News tonight and Lester Holt can fill her in.

And Senator Williams…you know I happen to know your suite mate from Holyoke and she told me after you were on FOX suggesting that women would do well to follow an abstinence lifestyle until married, that your room may as well have had a revolving door for all the men who came and went. Get it, Senator? CAME and went. And by the way, she thought that you definitely went home to New York City that time you claimed you were skiing in Killington. Someone saw you getting on the Greyhound going South, not North. You came back really…subdued. Things got calm in the suite with you for a while. Any memory of that? No?? Your color doesn’t look so good all of a sudden.

You so-called pro-life people are the worst hypocrites and destroyers of life You should all go to Hell, which if you believed in it as you say you do, is awaiting your presence. Assholes all. I yield back my time”

This would go viral and instill a certain awakening by those who only respond to the political equivalent of a Tarantino movie. BOOM!

This of course is a Swiftian Modest Proposal. I don’t think it’s gonna happen anytime soon. But then again…

And I said wholly appropriate for her and magnificent.

But someone at some point is going to have to beat the shit out of these people because they deserve it. Period.

We need a female equivalent of Jerald Moskowitz to do it. Angry and tough.
