That is impressive.
If we could only figure out a way for men to get pregnant, little Snottie could have a job for life. ;-)



There is a wonderful movie from the 1960s, starring Sophia Loren and
Marcello Mastroianni, called "Yesterday, Today, and Tomorrow," which
consists of three vignettes. The first depicts a town in Italy in which
Ms. Loren works at an illegal job selling bootleg cigarettes. Under
Italian law of that day, she cannot be arrested so long as she is
pregnant, or within a six months of giving birth. So, naturally, her
husband in the movie, Mastroianni, works very hard at keeping her
pregnant. Your comment about our boy Snotty and a "job for life"
reminded me of that movie.

It's a really first-class movie, and sometimes it shows up uncut and
uninterrupted on one of the movie channels.

No Harry, that's wrong. Since the passing of Roe v Wade, a fetus has
had absolutely no rights especially in regards of it's life or it's
death. a fetus rules over nothing.

That must be why the right wingers are making abortions impossible or
nearly impossible to get in states controlled by republicans.

Where do you get.these wild ideas? They're not making abortions
impossible. The mills still churn daily.

Ahh, but in the good old U.S. of A., we don't give a damn about the
health and welfare of mother and child once the fetus is delivered.

Really? Since when? I've never heard of a starving single mother
yet, OR a baby who has been denied healthcare.

In the name of science, Harry's brain should be bisected and evaluated

I'm not going to do your research, but there is one clinic still open in
the entire state of Mississippi, and I believe the couple that are in
Kansas are staying open by a thread. Plus, in many states controlled by
Republican governors, the states are pushing hard to close clinics by
setting up "special" rules the clinics cannot afford to meet.

Wake up.

They're hardly mills and they ought to be convenient for the women who
want to avail themselves of an abortion.
