Sex outside marriage should be illegal, says Parnell nominee

JUNEAU -- Gov. Sean Parnell's appointee for the panel that nominates state judges testified Wednesday that he would like to see Alaskans prosecuted for having sex outside of marriage.

*snip*

One blog post on the Eagle Forum Alaska site praised efforts at criminalizing adultery in Michigan, and Paskvan asked Haase if he thought it should be a felony in Alaska.

"I don't see that that would rise to the level of a felony," Haase said.

Paskvan: "Do you believe it should be a crime?"

Haase: "Yeah, I think it's very harmful to have extramarital affairs. It's harmful to children, it's harmful to the spouse who entered a legally binding agreement to marry the person that's cheating on them."

Paskvan: "What about premarital affairs -- should that be a crime?"

Haase: "I think that would be up to the voters certainly. If it came before (the state) as a vote, I probably would vote for it ... I can see where it would be a matter for the state to be involved with because of the spread of disease and the likelihood that it would cause violence. I can see legitimate reasons to push that as a crime."

Haase then asked why those questions were relevant.

"You are injecting yourself into the judicial system and so I think it's fair inquiry," Paskvan replied. "If you have a motivation to limit who would be advanced to a judgeship ... then your beliefs and attitudes are important," Paskvan said.

7. Oh for the right price they will look the other way

-guaranteed. That is the way Republicans roll. For the right price, before Rode vs. Wade, one could have a "D & C' discreetly done by your OBGyn. I used to see the OR schedules full of these procedures back in the day.

These draconian laws are just for the disenfranchised masses, never forget that.

10. If you take the time to PM, I'll send the links to you. Texas just passed a law mandating that:

Women going in to have abortions (first trimester, when they don't usually show up on a regular ultrasound view through the abdomen) have to submit to 'seeing their unborn child' and a number of women wrote to show what the fetus looks like.

To help them make the 'right choice' to not carry through with the procedure, allegedly, but more to scare them from going to a doctor to even have it done in the first place. Of course there's always suicide and back alley abortionists, and by the way, the state won't pay for this added procedure, she will.

The way it's done is to insert a rod that the women on the board described as the size of an electric cattle prod vaginally, to the cervix and beyond, to get an image. The women on the board here who have had this done say it is very painful and caused them to bleed. They were having to have it done for other reproductive organ procedures.

It was argued that in the case of rape and incest this would be particularly cruel and traumatic, and there was some talk that those victims might get a waiver. But the legislature there, since Tom Delay did his gerrymandering, is completely GOP now and there were no dissenting votes, or at least not enough.

The governor, Rick Perry, said he was excited at the chance 'to sign this historic piece of legislation.'

It would be one thing if those same forces wanted to pay for pre and post natal care, or any of the expenses that would incurred through life or if they supported family planning to prevent unwanted pregnancies. Or anything else. They don't, though, in fact are trying to outlaw those as well. All the better to reduce women to the status of concubines.

It gives me no satisfaction to have to report barbaric things.
