  1. Eeeesh! The really, really scary news in this world is that some women are actually going go vote Republican. And like it.

  2. The really, really, really scary part is that somehow my not wanting to pay for someone's birth control is thought to intrusively put me in their vagina. The truth is, I want less to do with their vagina than they want me to do with their vagina. You libs are just soooo confused.

  3. If this was only about birth control, I might agree with you. But it isn't, so I don't.

    I think this is about more than who gets to pay for a few pills. There's a broad spectrum of issues having to do with Healthcare and Gender Equality and the Right of Self-Determination etc. And those are just the few that occur to me as 1 guy in Central Virginia. I suspect any given woman anywhere else might have a whole list of other items she does and/or doesn't think she needs a little help with.

    So try to take the message to heart - if your ideology requires you to turn your back on people, then that's your right, and you should do that, and you should expect the same in return. As for the rest of us, we're trying to get back to some traditional American values. You know - like working together, helping our neighbors, standing up for each other and all those other corny-sounding themes that made us great, but are now being lost as the self-consuming corporate monster continues to eat lives and shit broken people.

    We deserve better.
