Fire Breathing Liberal

Dear tr
For too long, Democrats have watched with dismay as paper-wasting polemics by rightwing heroes like Sean Hannity and Ann Coulter have become major best-sellers.

(you don't have to wonder HOW, they do it as Joe Kennedy did it for JFK and someone did for obama ..... you buy up enough to help it emerge on the best=seller list)

SO LET'S DO IT FOR WEXLER


Now it's our turn to support a Democratic hero by pre-ordering Congressman Robert Wexler's new book Fire-Breathing Liberal - and putting it right at the top of the best-seller lists where it belongs.
There's a reason The Nation, America's leading progressive magazine, named Robert Wexler the country's "Most Valuable Congressman." It's the same reason right-wing radio host Rush Limbaugh refers to him as "disgusting." It's because for the last twelve years Wexler has been Congress's most outspoken liberal – taking on Newt Gingrich, Tom DeLay, Ken Starr, George W. Bush, Dick Cheney, Condoleezza Rice, Alberto Gonzales, General David Petraeus, and, when necessary, even his own party.
"Over the course of twelve years, Robert Wexler has fought for his constituents and his ideals, refusing to let the status quo in Washington dictate what is best for this country. His book is a testament to that fight" - Senator Barack Obama
In Fire-Breathing Liberal, Wexler brings readers onto the floor of the House and puts them at the center of some of the last decade's biggest controversies. He passionately describes how he defended Bill Clinton from impeachment, and how he stood up against the Bush Brothers when the "butterfly" ballots in his Florida district wrongly flipped the 2000 presidential election, with the crucial help of the Republican-controlled U.S. Supreme Court
He offers an honest and brutal assessment of the Iraq War and explains why he was one of the earliest supporters of bringing our troops home. He writes with force about why he started a nationwide movement to impeach Vice President Cheney and organized almost a quarter million Americans to sign up at WexlerWantsHearings.com.
He is the one man that Bush Administrations officials fear when they testify before Congress, and his Youtube video interrogations of Alberto Gonzales, General Petraeus, and Condoleezza Rice are runaway hits. Just last week he was the one Member of Congress who demanded that former White House Press Secretary Scott McClellan testify before Congress, and he is the only elected official to call for arresting Karl Rove and other renegade Bush officials under the Congressional power of Inherent Contempt.
While he certainly breathes fire in his book, Wexler also shares some of the funniest stories from the corridors of Congress, including how he unexpectedly became The Colbert Report's most talked-about guest.
"I enjoyed Congressman Wexler's book even more than I enjoy cocaine and prostitutes." - Stephen Colbert
This weekend, the world witnessed Robert Wexler at his best as he delivered a passionate address and took hostile questions while representing Barack Obama before the Rules and Bylaws Committee of the Democratic National Committee.
Congressman Robert Wexler may represent South Florida in Congress, but in truth he speaks for every liberal and progressive American who is outraged by the disastrous Bush Administration and corrupt congressional GOP. Wexler speaks for us when he takes on Bush, Cheney, Tom DeLay, and Ken Starr. He calls out Republican lies and even is willing to stand up to fellow Democrats when our party is too passive.
Robert Wexler gives us voice – so let's support him and his progressive call to action. And let's show the nation that a Democrat can rule the best seller list, not just Hannity and Coulter. Robert Wexler has earned the recognition and respect - and so have we.

Repairing the Damage, Before Roe

Waldo Fielding, a retired (in his mid 80's !!!) ob/gyn writes vividly on the state of abortion before Roe. Abortions which were not just invented you know by some slut who deserves to have her children taken away or stuck with unwanted children because she was 'bad'.

Nope. Abortions are necessary medical choices for women AND men. From all walks of life. They have always been done, dating from ancient Greek days, according to Dr. Fielding. I'd venture to say that they've ALWAYS been done. ALWAYS.



Although I am reprinting the entire editorial here I thought the most important sentences (besides the details of personally repairing the horrific results of back alley abortions) were these:



It is important to remember that Roe vs. Wade did not mean that abortions could be performed.


What ROE said was that ending a pregnancy could be carried out by medical personnel, in a medically accepted setting, thus conferring on women, finally, the full rights of first-class citizens -- and freeing their doctors to treat them as such.



THE END.



Here's the rest of it. Please read.

Tony Cenicola/The New York Times

By WALDO L. FIELDING, M.D.
Published: June 3, 2008
With the Supreme Court becoming more conservative, many people who support women’s right to choose an abortion fear that Roe v. Wade, the 1973 decision that gave them that right, is in danger of being swept aside.


When such fears arise, we often hear about the pre-Roe “bad old days.” Yet there are few physicians today who can relate to them from personal experience. I can.
I am a retired gynecologist, in my mid-80s. My early formal training in my specialty was spent in New York City, from 1948 to 1953, in two of the city’s large municipal hospitals.
There I saw and treated almost every complication of illegal abortion that one could conjure, done either by the patient herself or by an abortionist — often unknowing, unskilled and probably uncaring. Yet the patient never told us who did the work, or where and under what conditions it was performed. She was in dire need of our help to complete the process or, as frequently was the case, to correct what damage might have been done.
The patient also did not explain why she had attempted the abortion, and we did not ask. This was a decision she made for herself, and the reasons were hers alone. Yet this much was clear: The woman had put herself at total risk, and literally did not know whether she would live or die.
This, too, was clear: Her desperate need to terminate a pregnancy was the driving force behind the selection of any method available.
The familiar symbol of illegal abortion is the infamous “coat hanger” — which may be the symbol, but is in no way a myth. In my years in New York, several women arrived with a hanger still in place. Whoever put it in — perhaps the patient herself — found it trapped in the cervix and could not remove it.
We did not have ultrasound, CT scans or any of the now accepted radiology techniques. The woman was placed under anesthesia, and as we removed the metal piece we held our breath, because we could not tell whether the hanger had gone through the uterus into the abdominal cavity. Fortunately, in the cases I saw, it had not.
However, not simply coat hangers were used.
Almost any implement you can imagine had been and was used to start an abortion — darning needles, crochet hooks, cut-glass salt shakers, soda bottles, sometimes intact, sometimes with the top broken off.
Another method that I did not encounter, but heard about from colleagues in other hospitals, was a soap solution forced through the cervical canal with a syringe. This could cause almost immediate death if a bubble in the solution entered a blood vessel and was transported to the heart.
The worst case I saw, and one I hope no one else will ever have to face, was that of a nurse who was admitted with what looked like a partly delivered umbilical cord. Yet as soon as we examined her, we realized that what we thought was the cord was in fact part of her intestine, which had been hooked and torn by whatever implement had been used in the abortion. It took six hours of surgery to remove the infected uterus and ovaries and repair the part of the bowel that was still functional.
It is important to remember that Roe v. Wade did not mean that abortions could be performed. They have always been done, dating from ancient Greek days.
What Roe said was that ending a pregnancy could be carried out by medical personnel, in a medically accepted setting, thus conferring on women, finally, the full rights of first-class citizens — and freeing their doctors to treat them as such.
Waldo L. Fielding was an obstetrician and gynecologist in Boston for 38 years. He is the author of “Pregnancy: The Best State of the Union” (Thomas Y. Crowell, 1971
