Five Before Chaos

I was originally starting this off as a post on Sam Brownback, after reading something about his comments that “would having an abortion really help a victim of rape or incest?” Well, considering that she wouldn’t have a daily reminder of the incident walking around, the answer is “of course, you dumbass!”.

But you can tell they’re getting nervous when Foghorn Leghorn himself is starting to talk about timetables. But what makes it funny is they still have the wingnuts like this one leading them around like a bull with a nose ring.
