The Speaker of the Florida House ( and I won't name political parties or genders here) got upset today because a member of the house used the word "uterus" as part of the debate.
The objectionable quote is amusing on its own
Quote:
And I always say their philosophy is small government for the big guy and big government for the little guy. And so, if my wife's uterus was incorporated or my friend's bedroom was incorporated, maybe they would be talking about deregulating.
This earned the admonition.
Quote:
... the Speaker believes it is important for all Members to be mindful of and respectful to visitors and guests, particularly the young pages and messengers who are seated in the chamber during debates. In the past, if the debate is going to contain language that would be considered inappropriate for children and other guests, the Speaker will make an announcement in advance, asking children and others who may be uncomfortable with the subject matter to leave the floor and gallery
Yes. Think of the children!
