Congressman Jokes About Transvaginal Probe (VIDEO)

"Sean Duffy is extremely concerned that you understand that he does not have a vagina, so much so that clarifying this critical issue trumps other, more pedestrian concerns, like explaining his policy viewpoints when directly asked about them by constituents. At a town hall meeting last week, the congressman from Wisconsin and former holder of the slot for the "smug but clueless white guy" on The Real World responded to a question about his views on mandatory transvaginal ultrasounds for women seeking abortion by talking about what really matters, which is that one of those transvaginal thingamabobs will never violate the holy manflesh of Sean Duffy."*

Congressman Sean Duffy claims to not know what a transvaginal ultrasound is, nor that women are forced tow get them in some states as a prerequisite to abortion. But...he still cracks jokes about them at town hall meeting.
