Today’s Doonesbury is the last in Garry Trudeau’s parody of the Texas ultrasound-before-abortion law.
The Washington Post Entertainment section summarizes many of the week’s kerfuffles around the cartoon, including a video of Rachel Maddow’s reaction and an animated video by the Taiwanese news spoof site “Next Media Animation” (below) showing Trudeau as an action hero promulgating his views.

The video from Taiwan:
Rape, torture and abuse. “Thank you, sir! May I have another?!” (See Richard Gere in An Officer and a Gentleman.)
It’s time the GOP got their heads out of their butts & tried to do something constructive — like requiring access to birth control methods through insurance, as called for by Ms Fluke.
Delightfully enough, the Sunday strip that followed this series, and presumably did run in the papers that cancelled the abortion series, isn’t gonna sit all that well with those who objected to the latter:

Gotta love Trudeau!
