Walker Earns "Gov. Ultrasound" Title

Let's hope a federal judge disagrees with Scott Walker's cold-blooded "ultrasounds are just fine" politicking and also overturns the right-wing misogynist, condescending and invasive legislating that implements it.

Voters in Wisconsin will remember this ugly misuse and manipulation of state power when Walker runs for re-election, or in any other campaign.

And especially shameful is that these restrictions, which continue to close more Planned Parenthood clinics that provide substantial health services to women, are being put into place with false language about protecting health.

This is about abortion and undoing Roe v. Wade while it is still the law of the land, and patronizes women in a 19th-century style.

Men would never accept such restrictions on their freedom, health care, and legal rights dictated by the opposite gender (and spare me the faux-feminist political charade that put arch-conservative and strongly-anti-abortion State Sen. Mary Lazich, (R- New Berlin), out front in the Senate.

I am not doubting her beliefs, but the substituting her for another Father-Knows-Best male legislator didn't fool anyone.

Except for the 52% of voters who seem to be just fine with all of it and want to see more.

Where are the protests now? Texas and North Carolina are putting us to shame.
