(Video: MSNBC)
Wednesday saw the expected defeat of Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer’s (D-N.Y.) maneuver to formally waste the nation’s time as well as the scripted outrage on Democratic Party television that inevitably followed.
In one case, Rep. Cori Bush (D-Mo.) joined her comrade Joy Reid on MSNBC’s “The ReidOut” – a primetime show that has lost 57 percent of its core demographic since 2020 – ostensibly to be given a voice for a temper tantrum that might as well have been yelled into a pillow in the manner of a child.
Shortly after the Women’s Health Protection Act failed 49-51 in the Senate on Wednesday, Bush put forth these words:
“Opposition to abortion care has never been about a baby,” Bush asserted. “It’s never been about children because if it was, we’d have better resources for when the child is actually born, but so it was never about that. It’s just about control.”
The congresswoman attempted to draw a connection between male sperm and the willful decision of a woman to abort her unborn fetus, arguing, “There’s a reason why we don’t see sperm regulation legislation.”
She continued, “There’s a reason why we don’t see mandated vasectomies. You know, the very idea that we would take away men’s bodily autonomy is outrageous, like it’s unfathomable, but truthfully sperm are busy. It’s busy. Who’s regulating that? Who is saying something about it? I didn’t see the senator saying something about it and somewhere that legislation?”
“There will never be [legislation] especially if it’s up to them, because they don’t see that as something that’s needed because it’s about control and it’s not about children,” she added.
Although Bush was reportedly raped and impregnated in her youth and then had the resulting fetus aborted, she doesn’t appear to understand that an exception doesn’t prove a rule. She also strangely argued – with no sense of irony – the reason Democrat senators such as Joe Manchin (D-W.Va.) voted against Schumer’s proposed act was because they don’t see all people as “fully human.”
“We’re going to be voting for a piece of legislation that I will not be voting for today,” Manchin said before the vote.
Bush also made light of the illegal protests taking place in the neighborhoods and at the homes of several Supreme Court justices.
And in the fashion of classic leftist ‘what-aboutism,’ she compared the illegal protests to the Capitol riot of Jan. 6, 2021 – a so-called “insurrection” where the only person killed was an unarmed female Air Force veteran; but an incident which Democrats and the radical Left cling to dearly as the only arrow in their quiver of ideas.

Hey, knucklehead, it takes TWO to tango. To listen to these strange-o’s you’d think contraception didn’t exist.
The reason you don’t see sperm control is because rubbers have too many moving parts for you lefties to figure out.
Silly Leftists!
CONDOMS have been around forever!
Sperm Control and pleasure killer.
Sacrifice?
What an IDIOT! And folks, she’s on OUR PAYROLL! Guess the BLM gig didn’t pay so well. JUST KEEP YOUR LEGS TOGETHER CORY. JEEZZ, where do people like this come from?
Yes, folks, Cori Bush Is as racist, misandrist, and ignorant as she seems!
Outside of St. Louis, this broad could not be voted dog catcher!!
And Negros want us to believe da bez smartz lik we bez !
Daaammnnn MOST Black NEGRO “woMEN” are Ugggggly !
Yes Cori, it really is a shame your dad didn’t control his sperm better.
We wouldn’t be talking about abortion if the irresponsible couple had used contraceptives. The Declaration of Independence states we have a God-given right to LIFE.
Settled science states- A unique individual’s life begins when the two DNA’s of the father and mother unite to form a new being.
Get Over It.
The consequence of not taking a few minutes to prepare for recreational sex is 9 months of baby sitting. Then, there is a choice- raise the baby or let the baby be adopted by an eager couple. Trashing a baby is murder. There are consequences for that, too.
Bush is so dumb it’s just sad. There are effective birth control products readily available, including abstinence.
Yes, I agree but she’s neck-and-neck in the dumb department with Sheila Jackson Lee of Houston.
Sperm control is as stupid as egg control
Only a Complete Phucking Idiot can spew Such Stupidity.
You have to admit the wokies on the left are always good for a belly laugh. I don’t think Bush is smart enough to have come up with something that stupid, I’m betting Reid wrote it for her.
It’s called condoms, spermicide, copulation outside the hole, even abstinence. These two graphically marginalized losers don’t have to worry as long as electric toys don’t ejaculate.
Hey, mizz Bush — except in the case of proven rape, women have power to control both her and her sex partner — USE BIRTH CONTROL — pills or condoms, both easily available and free in most cases! Or –she can always say NO — that is also within a woman’s power!!! Shouldn’t all you women’s rights’ loudmouths be using this argument to protect women you claim you care about?? Or would you rather continue making women appear to be wimps who are always the victims of men? Please! You and all “abortion rights” screamers are pathetic and make no sense at all! 🙄👎
Considering that they tell themselves that “guns kill people” to justify gun-control, I expect their problem is they all follow the highly overrated Rousseau. Society and civilization are what corrupt people, leading them to use guns, to drink to excess, etc., etc., et cetera. But Unfortunately, Rousseau was apparently too cowardly to follow that ridiculous view far enough, so his successors are working on it for him. Society didn’t just happen, and saying private property’s to blame is simply empty-headed at best. How did private property become a thing and stay that way? Some agent was involved, and given that (third wave) “feminism” has found its home with Marxists, it makes sense to say the (third wave) “feminists” blame men for private property, and most or all other causes that gave rise to civilization as we know it.
That attitude, along with the idea the crazier “feminists” offer, that all sex is rape, even when consensual (!), and the argument offered by one transgender apologist assume the same premise Bush’s nonsense, the one you’re aiming at: that women are completely passive. They can’t take any responsibility for getting pregnant, that would mean they’re active participants in what happened. Abortion become their means of righting a wrong after the fact. The victim mentality leftists are using to try to divide this nation racially is right where they need it to destroy the families that make life possible. Now they’re using it to create stupid women who will uphold the patriarchy they’ve been brainwashed into hating so much, and in the name of tearing it down.
Every time one of these alledgedly intellegent Black women open their mouths, there is a big shoe.
Sure we see sperm control. It’s called swallowing.
She is literally a walking birth control poster child. No one would want to reproduce with Satan.
The “sperm control” thing reminds me of this one ridiculous argument in favor of gun control. Somebody assured his readers that laws against bazookas were doing a fine job of keeping them out of potential terrorist hands. Therefore, gun control laws work, too. Stunning deduction. Unfortunately, among other problems, the knucklehead behind that doozy obviously didn’t understand that some things are harder to get a hold of, whether they’re legal or not.
Little Miz Bush over here has a similar problem, even if we let her lapse of wokeness slide, but let’s not be so generous. Making sure sperm doesn’t go where a lawmaker doesn’t want it going is far, far harder than making sure some pregnant lady doesn’t go and off what she’s carrying in her womb. Ignoring some obvious (because extreme) cases where it’s easy, you’d need some pretty extreme measures to do that. Does she really want the government to be able to put cameras into people’s bedrooms to make sure the men out there aren’t, for example, jerking off? Or in bathroom stalls, for the same purpose? Does she really expect us to believe the woman can’t make sure her “date” is using a condom, if it matters that much? Because I’m sure she doesn’t mean a law should be put in place requiring people to remember to use them. (And how would she enforce it, I wonder?)
All of that would be true even if we granted, against all logic and biology, that a sperm and a fertilized egg are on a par. And once we see the difference, we can see why nobody in his right mind would think keeping a look-out for the one demands keeping watch over the other for parity’s sake.
Someone should explain to her what a vasectomy is.
I think I see where you’re going, but I think that was actually where her spectacular failure of a point was aimed. In her mind, sterilizing a man against his will is somehow on par with not letting a woman snuff out the fetus she’s carrying without grave reason.
It’s absurd, of course, but if you squint while drunk, and keep reciting the mantra that they’re only aborting “a clump of cells”, it can sound reasonable.
Ignorant black cow
alansmith, take that white hood off your head and try to think of something more intelligent to type next time!
And your response is any more intelligent? Take your own advice, PIRN!! To quote my buddy Bugs Bunny, “What a maroon!” 🙄
