There Is No Depth To Which A Hypocrite Will Not Delve

Tennessee Congressman Scott DesJarlais (Republican), a physician, calls himself "pro-life" and wants to make abortion illegal. But that didn't stop him from pressuring his mistress (who was also his patient) into having an abortion to destroy the evidence of his hypocrisy.

To begin with, it is unethical for a physician to have a sexual relationship with a patient. So right off, I'm thinking this guy is a creep of the first order.

But more importantly, how can this hypocrite look all doe-eyed when discussing the "precious life" of a zygote in public, then treat the woman he slept with like a useless whore, and his "unborn child" like a disposable inconvenience, in private. Sickening.

Not sickening because he thought an abortion was appropriate in this situation. He was probably right about that. He had no intention of staying with that women, it was unplanned, he was trying to fix his marriage (as lame as that sounds).

It's sickening because he and his political party are trying to deprive women of the right to make decisions about their own bodies while he is secreting around pressuring the woman he unleashed his unsafe sexual practices on into having an abortion.

Congressman DesJarlais clearly does NOT think a fetus is a person. (If he does, then he is guilty of being an accomplice to murder according to his own moral construct.) Yet that is precisely what he and his cohorts argue to support their position that the government is the better choice for making a woman's health care decisions.

Here's what I think. I think Congressman DesJarlais and his judgmental/hypocritical colleagues are the ones who are not moral enough or smart enough to make these decisions. These decisions should be left to the women whose bodies are involved.

I don't know how Dr. DesJarlais can find away Above His Raisin'. Maybe just by keeping it either in his pants, or if he is incapable of that, thoroughly rubberized.
