Hovde: Women's Rights Should Be Decided By The Community

During an interview with Matt Smith of WISN-TV's UpFront program, Pornstache Carpetbagger, er, I mean California banker Eric Hovde, spoke about abortion. Hovde's has had many, many different takes on abortion and it continues to shift on a regular basis. During this particular interview, Hovde said that he would like the community to vote on a referendum about what women can and cannot do with her body. Healthcare by committee, if you will:

I think we have to find a compassionate common -sense solution to you know bring our state together on this issue. I believe it should go to a referendum so every voter should have a right to vote on it and I'll have my vote everybody else will have their vote. I believe in the beauty of life I have two daughters three grandchildren, but I also believe an exception for rape incest and the health of the mother, and I think early on in a woman's pregnancy she should have a right to choose. If you look at most of Western Europe they resolved this decades ago. I mean you know I think Germany's at 12 weeks France is at 14 weeks almost all of Western Europe allows a woman the right to choose in the first trimester but there becomes a point when a baby can be born healthy and alive that I'm opposed to having an abortion.

News flash for Pornstache: Women's bodies are not communal property. The community has no more say to what a women chooses to do with her body than any individual, other than the woman herself. It doesn't matter if you or anyone else disapproves because it's not your body.
