So Many Republican Hypocrites, So Little Time

South Dakota State Rep. Bill Napoli

Welcome back to the BuzzFlash.com GOP Hypocrite of the Week.

We've come up with the Guantanamo test for every medieval, anti-compassionate, extremist law proposed by the dangerous Republicans in office.

Take Bill Napoli, a GOP state representative from the bastion of males enslaving women, South Dakota, who championed their draconian anti-choice law with this monstrous explanation of the one exception he would allow for having abortion: "A real-life description to me would be a rape victim, brutally raped, savaged. The girl was a virgin. She was religious. She planned on saving her virginity until she was married. She was brutalized and raped, sodomized as bad as you can possibly make it, and is impregnated. I mean, that girl could be so messed up, physically and psychologically, that carrying that child could very well threaten her life."

But if you are just your "garden-variety" female rape victim, Napoli wants you to know you are out of luck. Indeed, under the South Dakota law, "abortions would only be permitted in a narrow category of cases where the life
of the mother was in danger. The state's law provides no protection for victims of rape and incest, nor to women whose health might be severely damaged by continuing a pregnancy."

So, we propose sending Napoli to Guantanamo where he can be sodomized with a broomstuck, while hooded and attacked with dogs and see if he changes his attitude. Because, if you are a woman and you are not a virgin, such brutality would not qualify for you for an abortion, according to Napoli.

But Napoli is just another Republican hypocrite without a uterus unless he is willing to personally experience the male version of rape. Because, otherwise, how can he presume to dictate that a woman who is raped -- and not a religious virgin -- should carry to term the child of "evil spawn" as the GOP likes to call the "bad guys"?

It doesn't make much sense to force a woman to become the mother to the child of a rapist, but if the Republicans were consistent, they wouldn't be, well, Bush Republicans.

That's why we created this site. The most common denominator of elected Republican officials is hypocrisy.

And Bill Napoli painfully illustrates that point with his harmful and cruel attitude toward women and rape.

It's been a long time since women were treated as chattel, but South Dakota is working hard to sling shot us back to our Neanderthal heritage.

Until next week, remember our motto at BuzzFlash.com: So many Republican hypocrites, so little time.

Catch up with you soon.
