A lot of percentages figures lace the article but there are no references to be found in relation to these percentages.

It is certainly an opinion column, as I've said many times that's easily deduced by the 'op/ed' or 'opinion' designation at the top of the page. Not every news site links to sources by the way (and it doesn't work well in actual print), but that doesn't mean the author's facts are wrong. I've linked to the Staffordshire scandal here on more than one occasion.

No problem. Just in case someone missed it.

Yes, that can be the case.

Yes, and I believe I commented on those articles.

Exactly right.

Hello again,

This Texan got it right. I'm sure Perry will call her a mob.

Holy crap- that damning stuff right there. I guess good ol' Rick can retire and his sis can funnel some money back to him.

One moment you're claiming that documents that do exist don't, the next you're claiming a coincidental link is "damning stuff."

The Texas legislation is a carbon copy of several antiabortion measures adopted in other states; and so, as the Chronicle notes, the surgical center restriction did not originate in the governor's office.

P.S. If you want to be heard in a legislative hearing there is a proper decorum. You can't just come in and be an a$$ and expect to not get removed.

Hi Steve,

Here's the link: Texas' proposed abortion restrictions could be a financial boon for Rick Perry's sister - Salon.com

What? You're not free to make an a$$ out of yourself?? Maybe in the Republic of Texas, but in America, we're FREE.

Actually that depends on where your standing. And it seems Sarah has been a bust girl for some time now. This is from 2011.

"A member of our peaceful protest attempted to protect his equipment from the rain, you know, like a humane thing to do," said Sarah Slaman with Occupy Houston.

Um, I sourced that link in this quote showing the coincidence:

And if Perry's sister is anything like him I don't foresee her pushing for more abortions at her clinics.

Ok sir, feel free to rail on some judge in court and let me know how that works out for you.

But it wasn't a judge in a court was it. Why change the discussion? Try to stay on topic.

Why not try to follow a discussion? Ex said "but in America, we're FREE" (to make an a$$ of oneself) and obviously that's not always the case - call the judge a "liar" and see what happens. It's no different in a state assembly, there are rules and etiquette and if you choose to be an a$$ you just might get removed and have to finish your temper tantrum elsewhere.

Well if you have to change the situation that means there's no rebuttal for the original situation. She should have been free to speak since she wasn't calling any judge a liar, those officials saw some unflattering "outings" about to happen and wanted to protect themselves.

When it's time for citizen feedback, a citizen should be FREE to give them feedback.. That's NOT the same as a courthouse... NK nailed you on this one.

Yeah, the left has another new hero. MSNBC has already got her scheduled for tonight. They haven't gotten over their last hero yet, maybe they an get the two together and talk about how women in Texas "literally" have no control over their bodies.

I'm a free speech guy but unlike you I'm not going to pretend I can walk in anywhere and be a disruptive a$$ and expect no response. There are rules in and you know that.

Quote:

---

The speaker shall preserve order and decorum. In case of disturbance or disorderly conduct in the galleries or in the lobby, the speaker may order that these areas be cleared. No signs, placards, or other objects of similar nature shall be permitted in the rooms, lobby, gallery, and hall of the house. The speaker shall see that the members of the house conduct themselves in a civil manner in accordance with accepted standards of parliamentary conduct and may, when necessary, order the sergeant-at-arms to clear the aisles and seat the members of the house so that business may be conducted in an orderly manner.

Right, the guy responsible for making sure links are in the right place but can't see them right under his nose is mocking me for the occasional use of Bing, which unlike Google is still supported in my browser's search bar. You really should give up trying to get the best of me, you suck at it.
