| "Wait. where do babies come from?" |
An Idaho lawmaker received a brief lesson on female anatomy after asking if a woman can swallow a small camera for doctors to conduct a remote gynecological exam.
The question Monday from Republican state Rep. Vito Barbieri came as the House State Affairs Committee heard nearly three hours of testimony on a bill that would ban doctors from prescribing abortion-inducing medication through telemedicine.
Barbieri later said that the question was rhetorical and intended to make a point.
Dr. Julie Madsen, a physician who said she has provided various telemedicine services in Idaho, was testifying in opposition to the bill. She said some colonoscopy patients may swallow a small device to give doctors a closer look at parts of their colon.
"Can this same procedure then be done in a pregnancy? Swallowing a camera and helping the doctor determine what the situation is?" Barbieri asked. Madsen replied that would be impossible because swallowed pills do not end up in the vagina.
"Fascinating. That makes sense," Barbieri said, amid the crowd's laughter.
You know I have long believed that Republicans do not understand how a woman makes another human being, and this just proves it.
I'm surprised this simpleton is not suggesting shooting storks out of the sky as a contraception measure.
Where DO they find these people?
I think they are aliens who lost their way.
ReplyDeleteSo, can you get pregnant after oral sex ?...
ReplyDeleteGood question, milady, I'm not sure.
DeleteI know you can get VD from toilet seats.
If you stand up right after sex you won't get pregnant but I don't know about the oral sex thing - I usually don't talk much during sex.
DeleteAfter? Yes, but you'll likely have to wait a few minutes.
DeleteWell now we know why you are AWOL from the pond!
DeleteWhy hell yes you can get pregnant. Just switch holes.
DeleteMonday afternoon Barbieri told The Spokesman-Review that he adamantly supports the bill, and wasn't fazed by the social media attention his question garnered.
ReplyDelete"I was being rhetorical, because I was trying to make the point that equalizing a colonoscopy to this particular procedure was apples and oranges," he said. "So I was asking a rhetorical question that was designed to make her say that they weren't the same thing, and she did so. It was the response I wanted."
Yea, and if you believe that boatload of crap you'll believe anything. The guy's a doofus and he was trying to save face by this "I was being rhetorical. . . " speech. And these assholes are making the rules for the ladies.
DeleteWhat is wrong with the women voters in Ida ho??
Home-schooled?
ReplyDeleteReligious school?
DeleteHe is too stupid to be elected, nothing else needs to be said
ReplyDelete"Where DO they find these people?"
ReplyDeleteThere are a shitload(57%) out there that possess the trifecta of stooopid. Religion, science denial, and no understanding of the constitution.

Where no man has gone before.............I guess electing this guy seemed like a good idea at the time..........I guess the electorate was inebriated at the time.
ReplyDeleteLook, guys and gals. He sought to argue that you couldn't determine what was going on in a womb as you can in a colon, by a little camera that you swallow. So the telemedical route (which he opposes) wasn't feasible. As hilarious as this is, I think this story is being wildly misinterpreted. See 12:25 above.
ReplyDeleteUh, no. Between ultrasound, etc... and al lhe had to do was ask about another insertion poitn for the camera. Barbieri = Barbarino in intelligence.
Delete"Barbieri later said that the question was... intended to make a point."
ReplyDeleteOh, he made a point, all right.
Not the one he intended, but still.
Was it to make his head more pointed?
DeleteSorry, that would be an insult to all Coneheads from Remulak who certainly understand more about human anatomy than this doofus.
The wedding night of Mr. and Mrs. Barbieri must have been a doozy. I'm assuming the wife does not give head.
ReplyDelete"Where DO they find these people?"
ReplyDeleteThey don't "fingd" them; they create them, Charter and voucher schools and FAUX Noise.With a side dose of dioxins in the environment.
This is a good example of why these men should leave the "lady part stuff" to the women and their doctors.
ReplyDeleteAh, the results of a Republican education.
ReplyDeleteAnd they'd like the entire U.S. population to share this moron's intellectual grasp of "science.
I am surprised it Idaho and not Texas or Florida.
Wait.
Didn't Palin finally get her bachelor's degree from.....Idaho?
Well, that explains everything.
