VAGINA. VAGINA. Vaaaaagina.

You guys are missing the subtlety here.

Suppose you didn’t know what Representative Brown had actually said. Suppose all you heard was what Representative Callton said: “What she said was offensive. It was so offensive, I don’t even want to say it in front of women. I would not say that in mixed company.”

Hearing just that, what would you imagine she said? People that are only going to hear half the story are going to think Brown said something a lot more offensive than vagina.

Cock, Cock, COOOOOOOOCK! You can get easily get away with that if the subject pertains to firearms. Just sayin…

Sure, but when I pull my penis out of one it doesn’t go “shiiiiiiing!”

I so need to put this sound effect onto my phone or something and push the “play” button at the next opportune moment.

How about a long speech on Brown’s speech where “vagina” is never used, but all sorts of euphemisms for it are interwoven in it. A satire filibuster if the particular body (heh, body) allows that.

That was stupid, idiotic, foolish, unwise, moronic, and simply laughable and I’m saying this as a pro-lifer and a Republican.

There are pro-life Democrats. So come to the Dark Side. We have cookies. And we are allowed to refer to a you-know-what as exactly what it really is.

Tell the Representatives that she said “vagina” not “clown car.”

’ It kills me that these people are actually governing our country.

To be fair it is only the Michigan Legislature, which controls only slightly more money than the guy who collects for the 5th floor coffee club.

Ooooh! I hope the speech includes the term “nether regions”. It’s my personal favorite, and I use it whenever I’m tempted by satan to use the V-word.

Something tells me this song will be getting a standing ovation at Paul & Storm’s summer shows. More than it usually does, that is.

You let one get away with saying vagina and pretty soon you’re going to have others trying to say vasectomy, too. Where does it end? If these people can’t be professional adults and use terms like ‘vajayjay’ and ‘pee pee snipping’ to describe these things, well, then they may just have to go ahead and pass anti-choice legislation without any debate at all.

LANSING, MI – State Rep. Barb Byrum, D-Onondaga, said Thursday she believed she was banned from speaking on the floor of the state House of Representatives because she introduced an amendment Wednesday that would apply the same controversial abortion regulations to vasectomies.

“The state does not regulate vasectomies,” she said in an interview Thursday. “If we’re concerned about making sure babies are born, why are we not talking about vasectomies?”

In a widely circulated video, Byrum can be seen asking to speak about her amendment.

She was not recognized by Majority Floor Leader Jim Stamas, R-Midland, who told her she was “out of order” for attempting to speak.

“I had heard a rumor that they were uncomfortable with me saying vasectomy, which is a medical term,” Byrum said.

Protesters in front of the Michigan Capitol Building today carried signs reading “Vagina”. You can’t make this stuff up.

I like me some of that as well.

All I can say is, after that little display of macho BS, I hope none of those male legislators are allowed anywhere near a vagina for a long, long time.
