Sometimes you have to laugh when you read The New York Times



This is what I read in The NY Times today.  This is part of their coverage of the abortion vote in Texas:


"The Texas House of Representatives on Wednesday passed a vigorously contested bill restricting access to abortion.......


Sorry but how can a 96-49 be vigorously contested?  That's almost 2-1!

Here is another:


"Senator Davis, whose political profile has been raised to national recognition by her filibuster, joined Cecile Richards, the president of the Planned Parenthood Federation of America, for a rally in Houston as part of a “Stand With Texas Women” bus tour that will hit the vast state’s major cities through the weekend."


Stand with what women?  The National Journal poll shows that women support these restrictions, 50-44.


My question is this:  Did this reporter spend anytime in Texas to write this report?  Did he talk to any Texans?
