I don't think she understands the meaning of the word "law"

COURIC: Palin says she makes no apologies for her pro-life views and opposes abortion, even in the case of rape or incest.
Gov. PALIN: I'm saying that personally I would counsel that person to choose life, despite horrific, horrific circumstances that this person would find themselves in. And if you're asking, though, kind of foundationally here should anybody end up in jail for having had an abortion, absolutely not. That's nothing that I would ever support.
ROBOT HEART (in an alternate universe where I can drop in on any conversation at any time): Hey, dumb shit. That's exactly what could happen if Roe v. Wade is overturned. Abortion will be criminalized in many states, and it will be considered murder, and people will go to jail. Perhaps you should think about that.
