The Congresswoman Can't Tell the Difference Between A Human Life and A Uterus

Congresswoman Louise Slaughter is on television just now comparing a ban on partial birth abortion to a ban on hysterectomies.

The root word for "hysterectomy" is "hysteria," as in "behavior exhibiting excessive or uncontrollable emotion, or a mental disorder characterized by emotional excitability."

I hope this Congresswoman, who can't tell the difference between a human life and a uterus, is not serving on the Intelligence Committee.
