This Week’s Cartoon: “Conservative Counseling”

Posted on March 29, 2011 by Jen Sorensen

Continuing with a long series of obnoxious happenings in matters repro, South Dakota has passed a law that pretty much forces women to seek “advice” from those faith-based  “Crisis Pregnancy Centers” that I blogged about a few weeks ago.

This Week’s Cartoon: “Clarence Thomas Video Club”
