One of the big things about 45*'s regime is that Mike Pence is leading a stealth attack on secular government.
And it continues to show through once in a while.
Kimberlee Kruesi, The Idaho Statesman:
A Republican lieutenant governor candidate on Tuesday softened his stance that women who get an abortion should be punished if it is ever criminalized in Idaho, a day after saying the punishment should include the death penalty.
“Prosecutions have always been focused on the abortionist,” said Bob Nonini in a statement. “There is no way a woman would go to jail let alone face the death penalty. The statute alone, the threat of prosecution, would dramatically reduce abortion. That is my goal.”
Nonini first raised eyebrows on the divisive social issue during a Monday candidate forum in Moscow hosted by the conservative Christian podcast CrossPolitic.
“There should be no abortion and anyone who has an abortion should pay,” Nonini said.
Pressed by moderators on the nature of the punishment, Nonini nodded in agreement when asked if he supported the death penalty as a possible outcome for abortion.
Nonini, a three term state senator from Coeur d'Alene, confirmed that position in a phone interview with The Associated Press.
However, several hours later, Nonini issued a statement seeking to take back his strict stance.
So, as is often the case, Nonini makes the crazed wingnut statement that gets his "base" fired up, and then walks it back in exchanges with the part of The Press that he knows his base will never see or hear.
But let's review this hardened "Pro-Life" position:
The guy is so thoroughly intent on preserving life, he's willing to kill the mother to save the fetus in her womb.
Q: what is your policy regarding a woman who attempts to abort her own pregnancy?
If you criminalize abortion - even when you reserve the penalties for the "abortionist - you need to be ready to commit law enforcement resources at the level necessary to investigate every woman every 28 days.
All of which means you've established the Fertility State.
And sorry not sorry, but it's been tried - Decree 770 - and the whole thing turned out to be really bad for Mr and Mrs Ceaucescu.
Here's the thing - again:

So fuck the fuck off, you fucking fuck.
