Why didn't I think of that?

OK.   Less than an hour ago, I posted my "If they'd only listen to me" blog.   And now the news has answered me back with this item -- Democrats in the State Legislature are way ahead of me on the clever comeback.

Remember a few weeks ago when the proposed Virginia law requiring (unnecessary) ultrasound exams for women seeking abortions was countered by an amendment requiring that all men have prostate exams before they could get Viagra prescriptions?

Well, now here in Georgia, there is a new anti-abortion bill being considered that would set the limit on abortions at 20 weeks instead of 24 weeks.    Look how that's being countered (thanks to Huffington Post):

A group of female Democratic legislators in the Georgia House of Representatives has proposed a bill that would ban men from seeking vasectomies.

"Thousands of children are deprived of birth in this state every year because of the lack of state regulation over vasectomies," said bill author Yasmin Neal. . . . It is patently unfair that men can avoid unwanted fatherhood by presuming that their judgment over such matters is more valid than the judgment of the General Assembly, while women's ability to decide is constantly up for debate throughout the United States" . . . 

"The Republican attack on women's reproductive rights is unconscionable," said House Minority Leader Stacey Abrams. . . What is more deplorable is the hypocrisy of [the anti-abortion bill's] author. If we follow his logic, we believe it is the obligation of the General Assembly to assert an equally invasive state interest in the reproductive habits of men and substitute the will of the government over the will of men."

Don't you just love it when someone uses logic to expose the hypocrisy of conservative bigots?  They want to control women's reproductive lives but yell like stuck pigs if anyone wants to regulate anything in their lives (like guns or their freedom to impose their will on others)?
