I'm saying she's an "authoritarian" to avoid death points but you can guess what I really mean.

This is a very smart move by a great governor.  Abortion does need to be heavily restricted in the entire country, not just in Oklahoma. (I'm not going to get into another abortion debate).

What I mean is I don't want it to turn into a 100-page debate.  We've just recently had two abortion threads in the Individual Politics board.  We don't need a third.

Doesn't sound like it'll survive a court challenge.

Good and fair restrictions. Calling Fallin an 'authoritarian' based on actions on one issue, especially one as contested as abortion (even libertarians can't agree on it) is rather intellectually dishonest, though...

I don't particularly care about this issue, but 20 weeks don't seem all that unreasonable. Anyone that pregnant should be able to notice by then...

More sceptical about legislating limitations on abortion coverage from insurance for obvious reasons, but some people tend to have a problem with it.

Hi! You must be new here. Allow me to be your tourguide... But before I do that please make sure to stay away from anything involving strange men with vacuum obsessions, you'll regret it otherwise.
