American Taliban Watch

Conservative doctors refuse to perform pap smears on unmarried women. Seriously.

    You know, perhaps if you actually clicked through these links, you’d find that the story originates in Canada, so titling the entry ‘American Taliban Watch’ doesn’t make much sense. Not that ‘American Taliban’ makes any sense anyway.

    I don’t think this report is accurate. I placed my reasoning in some comments at LGM.


    Lawyers, Guns and Money: The Expansion of Religious Exemptions To Deny Women Health Care Continues

    If it is accurate, it is completely outrageous.

    But at the moment, I would have to give our Taliban a pass on this one, this time. (As a suggestion, if it comes via Amanda Marcotte, examine it three or four times, there’s a good chance it’s bullshit of one form or another.)

    Jeez, here’s a take on a different group of American Taliban, in this case our own government.

    When Ricky was 16, he went to a teen club and met a girl named Amanda, who said she was the same age. They hit it off and were eventually having sex. At the time Ricky thought it was a pretty normal high school romance.

    Two years later, Ricky is a registered sex offender, and his life is destroyed.

    Found at fark tonight.

    Fucking Christ! Are you on a mission to prove how stupid you are? This is a story about Christians forcing their religion on others, even if it means not doing their fucking job. Of course to you the big issue is the geography, but that’s because you are sub-human.

    I swear, there’s plant life that has more brain than you do.

    Also, I’m pretty sure that Canada, like the United States, is in America.

    More importantly, “pap smear” is funny.

    The story about the doctors is almost certainly false. The real story is how easily we in the reality based left are led to believe and spread bullshit just because it comes from someone that identifies herself as one of us.

    CS, I could be the stupidest person in the entire history of creation and guess what? I’d still be smarter than you.

    If anything other than a curse or insult came from your fingertips in these comments sections it would be a MIRACLE.

    This is a story about Christians forcing their religion on others, even if it means not doing their fucking job.

    The story is probably bogus. You live in Canada and perhaps if you ever did anything other than spit curses and call people sub-human like a robot, you’d know that it is no conscience clause for doctors in Canada. If the story were true, the doctors in question could have been named and reported.

    Of course to you the big issue is the geography, but that’s because you are sub-human.

    No asshole, I made fun of the title of Oliver’s post because all he obviously did was read what the lunatic Amanda Marcotte wrote and didn’t see where the story originated. It’s not a big issue. It’s just an example of Oliver’s intellectual laziness.

    I swear, there’s plant life that has more brain than you do.

    Uh huh. And I’m convinced that if you ever said anything that contained and scintilla of intelligence, the world would come to an end. You are without a doubt, the biggest fucking IDIOT that Oliver has ever attracted to his blog.

    You.Are.A.Fucking.Idiot.

    Did you forget Dr. Pedro already?
