The phrase batshit f*cking insane springs to mind

O'Reilly falsely claimed that a pregnant woman's life could "never" be "in danger" from pregnancy complication

"Summary: On his radio show, Bill O'Reilly falsely claimed that it "is never the case" that a "mother's life is in danger" during pregnancy because "you can always have a C-section and do those kinds of things." In fact, several potential pregnancy complications, such as an ectopic pregnancy, which is "the leading cause of pregnancy-related deaths in the first trimester" or preeclampsia, which "affect[s] up to one in seven pregnant women" can threaten the life of a pregnant woman."

Apparently, Ted Baxter also claimed "you can always have a C-section" if a complication occurs.

Ladies and gentlemen, Bill O'Reilly is a complete and utter fool.

Thinking about it, it reveals a lot about the kind of mind -- usually a male mind -- that comes up with a lot of the legislation on sexuality, contraception, pregnancy, and abortion, i.e., guys with no frickin' clue. The best part to me is the simultaneous impulses to decry and invoke (albeit incorrectly) science.

Jesus, this bloke has no idea about women, pregnancy and birth, does he? It's almost laughable.

Well, I guess somebody should tell them that prostate or testicular cancer isn't fatal to men, because they can always just have their balls cut off!

Oh, and they don't need that Viagra either, after all it's against our religion to let idiots breed!

Wow. Just...wow.

"You can always have a c-section". Oh sure. I can always have MAJOR ABDOMINAL SURGERY the results of which can affect me for the rest of my life, if there's a problem. (And I don't mean the resulting child either.)

Ugh. And lots of other things that I'd type, but I find rage makes my headaches worse. So I'll go with "Assholes...male assholes who'll never, ever find themselves in the situation, preaching from on high, again. ARRRGH!"

'Cause, no matter how much they may love a female SO, it'll always be her the doctor cuts into, not them.
