Trevor Noah comes into his own with this Daily Show piece where he manages to make fools out of Jason Chaffetz, Jeb Bush, Carly Fiorina, the GOP, the NRA and the entire Pro Life movement, here hear!
The please inhale that Carly Fiorina rant about abortion in the piece which is played so often on cable news. Let me get this right, the GOP plays that Hillary Clinton is a cold, hard unlikable nastyass witch and Carly Fiorina gets a pass? My God, after watching this woman I sure hope to God her handlers keep her on a tight leash so she doesn’t bite anyone, it takes nine shots into the spinal cord… From the front.
I did find the two most memorable lines in this piece”
Right now Pro Lifers are like comic book collectors, human life only holds value until you take it out of the package and then it is worth nothing.
Like a law against high capacity magazines, after all we are going hunting not playing Call of Duty.
A fan sent me this quote from over at Daily Kos that struck me as applicable to all this:
How about we treat every young man who wants to buy a gun like every woman who wants to get an abortion — mandatory 48-hr waiting period, parental permission, a note from his doctor proving he understands what he’s about to do, a video he has to watch about the effects of gun violence, an ultrasound wand up the ass (just because).
Let’s close down all but one gun shop in every state and make him travel hundreds of miles, take time off work, and stay overnight in a strange town to get a gun. Make him walk through a gauntlet of people holding photos of loved ones who were shot to death, people who call him a murderer and beg him not to buy a gun.
It makes more sense to do this with young men and guns than with women and health care, right? I mean, no woman getting an abortion has killed a room full of people in seconds, right?
