Some Leadership, Indeed

It's no accident that a woman is showing positive leadership in the moron state of South Dakota. Again, I call for a coat hanger colonoscopy protocol for all male patients in South Dakota.

"As South Dakota hurdles towards the anachronistic member of this union they want to be, the President of the Oglala Sioux tribe, Cecilia Fire Thunder, [a former nurse and healthcare giver] had this to say:

To me, it is now a question of sovereignty... I will personally establish a Planned Parenthood clinic on my own land which is within the boundaries of the Pine Ridge Reservation where the State of South Dakota has absolutely no jurisdiction.

Now that's some leadership."

UPDATE:
Bitch, Ph.D. has more on this situation. Here are some addresses she provides in case y'all want to help out.

The mailing address is:

Oglala Sioux Tribe
ATTN: President Fire Thunder
P. O. Box 2070
Pine Ridge, SD 57770

or

ATTN: PRESIDENT FIRE THUNDER
PO BOX 990
Martin, SD 57751

For donations specifically for the Planned Parenthood clinic, make checks out to OST Planned Parenthood Cecelia Fire Thunder. General donations may be made out to the Oglala Sioux Tribe.

You are probably right, although the coathanger colonoscopy for all male patients seems a little harsh.

Reserve the colonoscopy for the state legislature members and governor -- I read a couple places the majority of the voters are pro-choice.

I think Cecilia Fire Thunder is wonderful. This is the one thing that will make the conservatives change their tune about abortion. Like gambling they discovered money always trumps their alleged morals, so once the tribes start making money on it they'll work harder than NOW to get abortion and the concomitant profits legitimized.

South Dakota has a large population of Bohemians. As Mr Creek knows we Bohemians rule the world and always have. We don't really want the responsibility though, we just do it to piss off the Germans.
