John Oxendine hates abortions and will defend bears

Don't worry, bears. John Oxendine hears you!
No, not those bears! (Update – Or even these bears.)
Back in May, we posted a video in which Republican gubernatorial candidate John “I have enough guns in my house to take over a small Caribbean country” Oxendine said, if elected, he’d run Planned Parenthood and other abortion providers out of the state. Go and watch the clip, it’s nice and creepy.
This morning, Oxendine went even more public with his vow. He echoed his pledge to run abortion providers out of Georgia. He signed the Right to Life pledge. He’s been doing all the right things. But he’s not editing!
“If elected, I will use the power of the Governor’s office to create an environment where abortion providers will not want to do business in Georgia any longer,” said Oxendine, now the proud dad of a new baby boy. “The Oxendine Administration will enforce existing laws and use the state Constitution to put Planned Parenthood and other abortion providers out of their grizzly business.”
Planned Parenthood, you’ve been exposed as the bear-smuggling heathens we all knew you were. For shame.

I wonder what John would have done if his wife’s pregnancy threatened her life? I wonder what he will do with all of the young women who learn about birth control and receive reproductive help from groups like Planned Parenthood?
What is “grizzly” is Oxendine’s disdain for women. But of course his far right, extremists comments will resonate well with all of the tin hat wearing “birthers” out there.

Is there a campaign mailing address we can send some coat hangers to?

Suddenly I’m wondering what the pic-a-nic baskets really represent in those old Yogi Bear cartoons. I suppose Ox wants to be our Ranger Smith, making sure all the precious pic-a-nic baskets in these parts remain undisturbed.
Now if I could just figure out what the deal is with Quick Draw McGraw, El Kabong and Baba Looey.

I am highly disturbed at the remotest mental picture I get of Oxy at a bear run.
I feel so… unclean.

rptrcub – Thee and me, darlin’, thee and me. Back in the Ancient Times I was a founding member of Southern Bears, so there’s no ASCII “shudder” that could completely communicate the IRL shudder I had after reading your words.
