Welcome to The World's Most Dangerous Beauty Salon, Inc.
My name is Susan DuQuesnay Bankston. I live in Richmond, Texas, in the heart of Tom DeLay's old district. It's nuttier than squirrel poop here.
I am honored and privileged to know Miss Juanita Jean Herownself, hairdresser extraordinary and political maven. Since she does not have time to fiddle with this internet stuff, I type her website for her and you can read it if you want to. If you don't, she truly does not give a big bear's butt.
A lot of what I post here has to do with local politics, but you probably have the same folks in your local government.
This ain't a blog. Blogs are way too trendy for me. This is a professional political organization.
To whom or what are they praying?
1I think that they are praying to the true god of all Republicans: Ronald Reagan.
21 or 2(?) gals?.
It’s like getting Democrats to act like Democrats … anywhere south of Lake Michigan, especially Kentucky & Texas.
3Very disturbing photo of a bunch of MEN praying that woman are not allowed to take care of their own bodies, their own lives. I feel sorry for the woman excluded from their circle of prayer, but also wonder why she would be supporting this activity!
4I heard that under George W they picked up a floorboard so they could speak to Satan through a long tube buried deep into the earth.
But with modern technology they now pick up a floorboard, and speak to and SEE Satan on a small tablet. Wireless.
It’s rumored that late at night, Rick Perry still sneaks into the building to drop small objects down the now disused tube. Just to see if he can hit someone way down there on the head, to make ’em holler.
He likes to know he’s still got it. The ability to make hell even worse for someone already there.
5Unless they have a uterus, they should Shut the Hell Up!
6Of course, if you tell these guys that science is working hard to make it possible for a man to carry a fetus cuz men think all fetusi are wonderful and should be brought to term and science is looking for volunteers for the testing . . .
7Hahahahahahahaha! Maggie, I’d love to see that! Suddenly those anti-women, anti-choice laws would become shakier than Oklahoma frac land.
8Aside from all those good points, can anyone explain to me the logic of “praying for an end to abortion”? If an end to abortion is what your god wants, shouldn’t he have already ended it? If he can do anything, he could have ended abortion a long time ago, so why has he let it go on this long, and why do you think that your asking him to stop it now is going to change anything?
The first time I saw a “Pray to end abortion” yard sign, I was baffled by the absence of logic, and I still am.
Yes, I know that asking for logic from religion is hopeless, but I’d like to see someone try to explain it just to watch them tie themselves in knots.
9Bozos like these have pretty much driven me from religion. The following is from a version of the book they claim to revere…
New Living Translation
10“When you pray, don’t be like the hypocrites who love to pray publicly on street corners and in the synagogues where everyone can see them. I tell you the truth, that is all the reward they will ever get.
There’s something happening here
What it is ain’t exactly clear
With their heads bowed in shame it is for certain somebody sinned.
11If all those macho men practiced celibacy, there wouldn’t be a need for abortion, would there. Just keep it in your pants, bozos. If ‘scoring’ continues to be a competitive sport amongst men, abortion is needed to keep the playing field level.
12Ladies, it’s Lysistra time!
Lysistrata persuades the women of Greece to withhold sexual privileges from their husbands and lovers as a means of forcing the men to negotiate peace. The play is notable for being an early exposé of sexual relations in a male-dominated society.
Of course Miss Red Jacket in the back of the bus there and her ilk will never get the message.
13And these bozos are trying to pass a law to prevent Sharia Law? “Beam me up Scotty!”
14I don’t want them praying about my uterus..she doesn’t like it.
15Wonder how many of those fine, upright gentlemen have at one time or other sprung for the cost of a little “Trimester Treatment” for their state capital girlfriends.
16This is perfectly consistent with their belief that men should control women.
I have been delighted over the past few years to see how quickly LGBT equality has advanced. I wish I could say the same for gender equality. If Hillary runs it is going to be a truly misogynistic campaign on the Repub side. The nastiness they’ve used on Obama in private will be far more culturally acceptable used against a woman in public. The N-word is considered racist, but the B-word is alive and well.
17I find it quite abhorrent that these are the same people who claim they are pro life but continue to relish executing the criminals, support people carrying weapons on college campuses and cutting food stamps and opposing access to health care so they can see a doctor when sick. Pro-life, really?? May be they should be required by law to set up a special trust fund for those “lives” they claim they are saving.
18This group of Republican clowns should be praying for brains rather than against abortion. And PLEASE do all of your praying privately, not publicly.
19One woman,and they don’t even let her in the circle. You know this scene was created for publication, and yet they still don’t even include her. They don’t care what women think at any level. Who is this silly woman? Does she have a clue what this picture says about her?
20Yes Monty, and I meant to say they really need to pray (in private) for forgiveness for their mean spiritedness!!
21is this the state version of the clown car??
22Disgusting.
23I like to compare compulsory birth to an un-funded mandate by government. Republicans hate un-funded mandates so ask them to fund it and all subsequent costs. Ask them to put their money where there mouth is.
24Let’s see….we ladies can gift them with hemorrhoids, nausea, leg cramps, back labor, and all the rest of the delightful symptoms of pregnancy. You think they whine NOW, just you wait.
25Perhaps mandatory vasectomies for all men voting to restrict women’s rights to seek an abortion? This would put the organ controlling their actions where their mouths are…
26biggomama- ms.back o the bus will never get the message because she identifies as a conservative and a republican before(sorry if that’s redundant) she identifies as a woman.
27Theadministration at the small liberal arts college my sister attended banned the performance of Lysistrata, real reason unknown. Seems to me the Texas lege does its share of keeping Austin weird unintentionally, of course.
Great observations in Rhea’s comments above related to God’s ability to stop abortions. I would just add what I heard discussed some time back, which was to the effect that the biggest abortionist of all is God. There was a number cited for total miscarriages across the country annually. I do not recall it exactly but it was well into the thousands. I bet Google would know.
28Not sure about the rules for posting a link like this but I will assume it is OK because it is on point with this thread.

29RepubAnon, your comment about vasectomies is right on the money. Good one.
30It reminds me of the “High Fiving White Guys” sketch on an old comedy show. They don’t even realize it. Thank God they don’t know much about PR.
31Debbo, when that happens they will legislate that abortion is a sacrament and abortion services could be obtained on a drive thru basis, complete with your favorite hdtv show.
32All of these men are praying to their penises. It’s obvious.
33Mark, I had a similar thought, but they may be comparing sizes
34as well.
Don,
35‘It’s always a no go when (whisper here) that s-e-x stuff might get mentioned at a small liberal GASP arts college or Baylor, where I’m told they learn by doing.
