The Maryville Daily Times reports that incumbent State Sen. Raymond Finney (R-Maryville) and primary challenger State Rep. Doug Overbey (R-Maryville) debated abortion at a Right to Life forum last night. They are both against abortion. Imagine that.
They also both support SJR127 outlawing abortion. The article notes, however, that the reason it didn't pass is the only nuance on which they differ.
Independent candidate Ira Lapides was there to say the government shouldn't be involved in the issue.
If Finney and Overbey are in lockstep on the number one issue for Tennessee Republicans, why is Overby challenging his own party's incumbent? Did you want vanilla or vanilla?
What these people are really saying is that they oppose your right to privacy and that the government ought to make your medical decisions for you.
So it's Ok to kill people as long as you do it privately.
