Breast-feeding is a natural, normal maternal instinct. I only watched the video for a few moments...yes women are going to continue to have babies and yes, we want women in politics, but as a grandmother and mother, I think there is an appropriate time and place to breastfeed.  Certainly, I would think that the woman could have taken her child into a more secluded area to share that "private moment" with her child before she entered the chambers. Sharing the private moment with the entire parliament and now the world (via you tube) is perhaps making a statement that breastfeeding should be acceptable in the workplace, but I see it as going a bit too far and only doing what she did to prove a point that what she is doing is politically correct.  As a mommy you make a choice; either stay home and care for the child or put the child in daycare.  There are many workplaces that now offer on-site daycare where a mother can take breaks throughout the day to go and breastfeed her child.  It is not a matter of the actual act of breastfeeding being inappropriate but the matter of breastfeeding at an inopportune time.  Yes, I realize babies get hungry when they get hungry, but most babies become accustomed to some type of feeding schedule that certainly could be accommodated to a working mother.  How would it be if mommy works at Walmart as a cashier?  Would it be appropriate to tell the customer ... hold on a minute ... little Sally is crying and the proceed to breastfeed??  I think not!!  If onsite daycare was available and the mother knows that little Sally's next feeding schedule is at 12:30 ... at 12:30 the cashier goes on break to the onsite daycare facility to breastfeed her child.

No one gives a Fuck! That's why it was moved to the MSM Distraction forum the first time you posted it!
It has absolutely nothing to do with American politics, and no one cares that she fed her damned baby, a very natural thing for mothers with newborns to do.
If you want to be a part of this forum, I suggest you start by commenting on existing threads and quit posting nonsense!
Stop posting video's to boost your youtube page, do it again and I'll delete your account along with all your videos.

How dare you add logic to a situation.  :smile:

I wonder if she is a liberal?

The Australian Greens (commonly known as The Greens)

Thanks je. Why am I not surprised she is a leftist?

What she's doing in Parliament is a literal representation
of the relationship she wants everyone to have with government.
