The exchange came during a 3½-hour hearing. The medical board is considering new rules that would require doctors to be physically present when dispensing abortion pills. That would effectively ban Planned Parenthood of the Heartland’s video system.
Under the system, women are checked by staff members at local clinics, then have an interview with a Des Moines doctor via a closed-circuit video system. If the doctor decides the woman qualifies, he or she enters a computer command that opens a drawer in front of the woman. She withdraws pill bottles from the drawer and takes the first pill as the doctor watches. Then she goes home, takes more pills and has what amounts to an induced miscarriage.
Does your doctor have to be present every time you go to fill your meds? Fuck you, Iowa.

I was at a pharmacy last week in the waiting room, waiting for a long while because of reasons.
I was there first thing in the morning. Within an hour, 3 semi to very attractive blonde women came in to get the "morning after pill." Wasn't snooping, but I have ears and they work and they weren't being shy about it.
I think I missed the orgy.

For the record the "morning after pill" and the "abortion pill" are two different things. The morning after pill does not cause miscarriages or abortions. it just delays the release of an egg until after the sperm is all gone.
Y'all probably already know that, but it seemed worth interjecting for the record.
