Wisconsin Liberals Make Asses of Themselves on National Scale

Seriously, one of us has got to start building a compilation of these things. We've got Feingold, FFRF, and now these winners.
The South Dakota Legislature's passage of an abortion ban bill prompted an angry reaction from abortion-rights supporters who vowed to boycott the state's tourism industry.

The state Department of Tourism received a dozen e-mails and a number of angry phone calls Friday from abortion-rights supporters who say they will not vacation in South Dakota.

A Madison, Wis.,-based group has formally called for a boycott of South Dakota tourism. In a news release titled "Bypass South Dakota!", the Women's Medical Fund urged supporters to steer clear of South Dakota.

"All kinds of families visit Mount Rushmore every year. It's a favorite of Americans and foreign tourists. But we can do without Mount Rushmore, the Black Hills, the Badlands and the Corn Palace," Anne Gaylor, director of the Fund, wrote. "We are encouraging all groups who care about women's rights to urge their members to bypass South Dakota."
I have no idea if this Anne Gaylor is one and the same with the FFRF Gaylor. My guess - yeah it is.

The BBA whole-heartedly suggests you travel South Dakota when and if you can this year.
