Virginia’s crazy GOP attorney general, Ken Cuccinelli, is running for governor, and I’d just assumed that Virginia’s next attorney general would inevitably be saner.
Silly me…
Meet the GOP’s nominee to replace Cuccinelli, state senator Mark Obenshain. In 2009, he proposed a bill that would require women to report a miscarriage to local or state police within 24 hours, or face up to a year in jail and a $2500 fine. So now what — you have to turn yourself in to the police when your period is late?
Wouldn’t this guy be better suited for attorney general in, oh, I don’t know, Iran, North Korea? A galaxy far, far away?
Could the EPA please check the water in Virginia because something is very f***ed up there?
And these are the guys who scream about government tyranny the loudest! They are the American Taliban.
I know — this is their idea of small government. It’s my idea of a very sick police state.
