"Rep. Barbieri asked if a woman could a swallow a small camera for a gynecological exam" -- tweeted Kimberlee Kruesi, AP, covering the anti-abortion bill hearing of the House State Affairs Committee.

Plus, follow-up tweet:

"No. Because when you swallow a pill, it does not end up in the vagina" -- Dr. Julie Madsen, testifying in opposition to the bill when Barbieri asked the question.

Which prompted this response from Barbieri:

"Fascinating. That makes sense."
