Local Hipocracy In Action
Posted by jen October 29th, 2006 in Bitch Session.This happened (I think) Wednesday but it’s been eating at me and I wanted to see if I was the only one who thought it was insane:
A local talkshow host on 700 WLW (a former lawyer and pal of Sean Hannity), who makes Hitler look like a Vegan Greenpeacer, who is also a catholic who objects to abortion so adamantly that he thinks women who get it should be punished criminally, actually suggested on his show that ALL illegal immigrant women be implanted with IUDs so they can’t reproduce and have native children that will ensure their eventual citizenship.
As abhorrent as he and these various statements are, let’s just deal with the hipocracy here… Who here knows what an IUD does? Anyone? Anyone? (It’s Okay if you don’t, I had to explain it to Mr Man.)
It is essentially a tiny wire or plastic form that floats in the uterus that scrapes or knocks loose any eggs that have attached there after fertilization. (It’s kind of like those wire brushes they put on building ledges to keep pigeons off.)
His stand on abortion is that life begins at conception and we know that IUD keeps concepted (fertilized) eggs from attaching… That’s right, he is all but advocating compulsory abortions by wanting to implant a device in women (who are almost assuredly also catholic) that removes removes fertilized eggs.
Am I right? I am seriously tempted to finally call his show and point it out after 15 years of nearly throwing up every time I tune by.

This was apparently the week for right-wing radio hosts to finally go off the deep end. We had rush and Hannity mocking Michael J. Fox, your IUD moonbat and a guy in Pittsburgh claiming that WalMart is “benevolent and gracious” to employees and local economies. They’ve all lost their damn minds.
I think you should call in to his show and call him on it.
But don’t mention the IUD “scraping off any eggs that have attached there after fertilization”, as that’s not quite how an IUD works. Its presence causes the release of white blood cells and certain lipids into the uterus — both of which will destroy sperm and eggs — in an attempt to defend against the foreign object.
