More on the Kansas' Attorney General Thingy
Atrios has some novel insights and questions about why Phil Kline is so interested in the abortion records of teenage girls in Kansas, most of which support my hypothesis that he's a little-girl-lovin-pervert.
An abortion isn't the only potential evidence of illegal sexual
activity. Getting pregnant at 15 is a crime even if you carry the child
to term, if your partner is under 16. Why aren't they subpoenaing
maternity ward records?
And, of course, what about the boys? As Kansas's STD reporting shows,
there are lots of people under the age of 16, many presumably male,
who have contracted these diseases. In 2003, the last year for which
there's full data, for people 14 and under there were 121 cases of
chlamydia, and 38 reported cases of Gonorrhea. 15 year olds are
lumped in with the 15-19 group, so presumably that would add a few
more cases. Why no subpoenas there?

Gee, now why would Kline, a rabid anti-abortionist, need the personal records from a health care facility serving Kansas' youth to fulfill his responsibilities. Birth records are public, and I bet they show a lot of births to girls who were under Kansas' age of consent of 16 when impregnated to give him plenty to do for the rest of his career.
Unless, of course, his agenda was different than he stated! But, what good Republican would fucking lie about his agenda?!
