Politicians Say the Darndest Things
There is always a moment in the Indiana General Assembly when someone says something they really shouldn’t. If they have any common sense they apologize as soon as humanly possible. That happened when State Representative Eric Turner said in opposition to an amendment to a restrictive abortion bill that would allow exceptions for rape and incest that some women might try to lie about being attacked in order to have an abortion. Turner apologized the next day.
Now comes Indiana State Representative Dave Cheatham who equated the Democrats walkout to soldiers fighting in the war on terror. You can see it for yourself below.
If Cheahtam has any common sense, he will apologize Monday afternoon when the House reconvenes.
