Duckworth: Giving birth in Senate makes me want to stay longer
By Max Greenwood - 01/27/18 05:01 PM EST

Sen. Tammy Duckworth (D-Ill.) said Friday that giving birth while serving in the Senate makes her want to remain in the chamber for even "longer."

"I want to be there to really be able to make the change, so that my daughters will grow up not knowing any boundaries, so that my daughters will grow up not having to make that choice between their profession and their fertility," Duckworth told ABC7 Chicago.

Duckworth's comments came days after she revealed that she is expecting her second child in April, making her the first senator to give birth while in office.

Wonder if the birth will be on C-SPAN.
I disagree.  Circle gets the square.

Why is she sexist against her sons?
Those who profess to favor freedom, and yet deprecate agitation, are men who want crops without plowing up the ground, they want rain without thunder and lightning, they want the ocean without the awful roar of its many waters.

And this right here is why no matter how worthless the GOP is, they will always win against these whacked out morons.

I'm aghast.  I've never heard anybody actually wish for their kiddos to be spoilt brats.  Thing is, this being IL, she'll probably get her wish to get on the McCain career path of going straight from the Senate to the pine box.

I must commend Senator Duckworth on not killing her baby in the womb, although it is unsurprising that she would rather work more than take care of her newborn.  Sympathies to the currently unviable tissue mass.

Afraid not, but I have to say this is one of the more stupid statements I've heard, even from a Dem.
Against stupidity, the Gods themselves contend in vain.

Grow up not knowing any boundaries?  I feel sorry for that kid.  She doesn’t stand a chance of success in life.

Making stupid statements must be a prerequisite in order to be a liberal female as the stupid statements just seem to flow out of the mouths of Pelosi, Warren, Auntie Maxine, Duckworth, etc.
I Believe in the United States of America as a Government of the people, by the people, for the people; whose just powers are derived from the consent of the governed; a democracy in a republic; a sovereign nation of many sovereign states; a perfect union one and inseparable; established upon those principles of freedom, equality, justice and humanity for which American patriots sacrificed their lives and fortunes.  I therefore believe it is my duty to my country to love it; to support its Constitution; to obey its laws to respect its flag; and to defend it against all enemies.
