    Blamed Democrats of course. Then claimed she didn’t actually get an abortion.

    Wonder if those who shout baby killer will go after her or if they’re just virtue signaling.

    All those other women were having abortions instead of using birth control, not like her – a good honest god fearing women who loves Jesus, and babies and had a medical emergency. How was she supposed to know that her actions would effect her? She wanted other women to die not herself.

    Double middle fingers to this bitch. They don’t even try to hide the hypocrisy anymore. I’m so tired of hearing republikkkans blame the left and scream about pro life. No, you are not pro life. You are pro birth. They don’t give a fuck what happens to babies and mothers after birth, as long as the baby pops out. Fucking shameful.

    I wish we could deport her.

    I am glad she got treated the way she did to understand how other people are affected by situations like this.
    She can’t blame the left for medical professionals fearing legal retribution for issues created by this horribly restrictive laws that not clear.

    Sadly she is so wrapped in her world she wants to blame others for what she help create

    There’s no saving MAGA die-hards. 

    Even if medical science saves their physical lives. It really is a cult and it’s embarassing, shameful and disgusting that their inability to reason harms millions of women across this country.

    You would think if they went through something like this they would be more empathetic and understand how life-threatening such cases could be. But apparently that’s not how their brain works. Calling it stupid seems like such an understatement. This is deliberate and unjust and evil.

    >“There will be some comments like, ‘Well, thank God we have abortion services,’ even though what I went through wasn’t an abortion,” she said.”

    And that’s why idiots shouldn’t have power to write laws. What she required is medically defined as an abortion. Even a miscarriage is called a spontaneous abortion, which a lot of people incorrectly think isn’t an abortion. She doesn’t even get that excuse because what she went through is commonly known as an abortion.

    I have no sympathy for people who are incapable of sympathy for others. The absolute gall of this woman. She does not care for other women in her shoes. She also wanted doctors to be willing to put their freedom and licenses on the line to test the batshit anti-abortion laws that she voted for. Fuck this entitled, remorseless ghoul.

    Letting politics and politicians make your medical decisions for you is one of the stupidest things a trumpanzee or normal person could make. Let medical professionals decide medical decisions.

    If they bent the rules for her then it’s no longer about court ruling or law anymore. It lets us know the hospitals and staff do have leeway. That makes anyone they don’t help, someone they murdered or at the very least harmed with malpractice.

    It makes them complicit. They cannot then claim their hands are tied.

    Even the infamously anti-abortion Catholic church acknowledges the need for abortion in ectopic pregnancy. Utterly obscene that the USA has reached a point below even that.

    Though why does she refuse to acknowledge her abortion as being one? Abortion just means ‘the early termination of a pregnancy’, which this is…

    Did no one tell her?

    It’s adorable that she insists she didn’t have an abortion. Like when toddlers with chocolate on their face say they didn’t eat the candy.

  22. sanityjanity Avatar

    So, she had a life-saving abortion (because her pregnancy was ectopic), and then she publicly claims, “what I went through wasn’t an abortion”.

    Fuck. This. Shit.

    That’s because she’s a member of a cult.

    > Who is to blame?

    > Cammack doesn’t fault the Florida law for her experience. Instead, she accuses the left of scaring medical professionals with messaging that stressed that they could face criminal charges for violating the law. She said she feels those efforts gave medical staff reason to fear giving drugs even under legal circumstances.

    > “It was absolute fearmongering at its worst,” she said. She also knows that abortion-rights advocates might see the opposite—that the Republican-led restriction caused the confusion. “There will be some comments like, ‘Well, thank God we have abortion services,’ even though what I went through wasn’t an abortion,” she said. Cammack declined to name the hospital where she received care.

    I won’t pray for her to lose her baby. I will pray for her to have an epiphany.

    First of all she did not almost die. Until the growing fetus causes sever internal hemorrhaging she would have been fine. Since the law she voted for has an exception to save the life of a mother or prevent sever physical harm. The doctors should have waited till they were sure one or the other was going to happen. I mean after all Florida’s maternal death rate is 39 women per hundred thousand births. So any woman can claim her life is possible in danger. Which is much higher that a place with subpar socialist health care like France what has a maternal death rate of 7 per hundred thousand in 2023.

    Strategically, avoiding attacking or criticizing her monumental hypocrisy. Instead, use her story in a positive way: “An Abortion Saved This Woman’s Life”.

  29. HellionPeri Avatar

    Her next political opponent needs to advertise that she believes in “life saving abortions for me, but not for thee”.

    Of course she does too scared to take responsibility

    I wish she had died. She deserves the worst possible result since she voted against other women.

  32. jmorg85 Avatar

    The moment the article said that this woman blamed democrats for fear mongering about abortion rights causing her to nearly die I immediately thought about the meme of the person riding a bike and putting a stick in the wheel and blaming someone else. Like wtf are we doing here?!

    This ghoul is my Congresswoman. Can’t vote her out because the rural counties in the district have the (slight) majority. She’s never in Florida to answer to her constituents, so it’s surprising this even happened here.

  36. nothisispatrickx Avatar

    She does have a point. Nothing in the laws caused that delay in care, the people working at that hospital caused it. It was wrong to do that and it could have cost her her life.

    It’s okay though, what she went through wasn’t an abortion, according to her 🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️

    I don’t have anything nice to say to her. I would suggest she read some books other than the Bible, and maybe go take some science classes, but I doubt it would help her, she’s lost to the ignorance death cult.

    As outrageous as it is that she blames the left, the “logic” needed to get to that conclusion really illustrates how little politicians understand the things they’re legislating. Yes, the procedure she had done IS called an abortion because that’s what is medically happening with the body. It doesn’t matter if she feels the procedure doesn’t match her personal narrative. When you BAN something, you make it illegal. Banning abortion makes the procedure illegal, period. There is already a TON of republican infighting about how much of a ban to do, if an outright ban is allowable, if it’s banned unless XYZ, not a ban but enough restrictions to act as a ban…these people want it legislated and they can’t even agree on how extreme to be.

    Mind you, the approach of the left is: your body, your choice. If she’s claiming it’s the left’s fault people are adhering to Republican abortion bans, she’s either too stupid or too delusional to be in office.

    This woman needs to have a sit down with Jon Stewart. Or I should say, I need to see Jon Stewart have a sit down with this woman. It would be so satisfying.

    “I didn’t have an abortion”. Yes ma’am, you certainly did. And there’s nothing wrong with that, no matter the reason.

    The cognitive dissonance is unreal.

    Yes lady, you had an abortion. A medically necessary abortion, is still an abortion. Which is a service you have denied to every other woman.

    She’s lucky she didn’t wait a week. It sounds like they only did it because she was less than 6 weeks pregnant.

    Of course hers was not an abortion. Sweetheart, no you did have an abortion.
