Dumb and Pregnant eh?

I love it when women say dumb things about being a woman.

Feministing noted that former state Rep. Sue Burmeister from Georgia in a debate about why women who want abortions should have sit through a state-written lecture about how terrible it is and wait 24 hours before obtaining the procedure: “Women are intelligent, but when you’re emotional, you’re not thinking with the right part of your brain.”

Really Sue? A young teen who is carrying her rapists child needs to think about things more intelligently for an extra 24 hours?
