Yesterday I suddenly realized that with so many new rape options available to women, there might be some confusion knowing exactly how to proceed in case of a violent sexual assault. And then I remembered another ham-fisted attempt by another administration to let us know how to react in case of "terror". I'm sure if they are elected, the Romney administration would find the same method useful to help us ladies straighten out our pretty little heads. So here's the Romney Administration's Rape Advisory Chart! Find your level of horrifying assault on your person and proceed accordingly!

The Arc, a national organization for people with intellectual and developmental disabilities, recently released A Report on Family and Individual Needs for Disability Supports (FINDS) for 2011, and it's not pretty. 50 years ago, John F. Kennedy said “those of us who have seen children live in the shadows know that a country as rich as ours cannot possibly justify this neglect.” And after 50 years we now have a group of politicians determined to push these children and adults back into the shadows, and deprive them of the chance to live a happy, productive life.

I listen to Regressive talk radio from time to time, mainly when I'm trapped in a car without my iDevice, but nonetheless I like to know which way the wind is blowing on the other side of the divide. Today I heard something so stupid from Mr. Rush Limbaugh that I'm not entirely sure if it was a case of lazy thinking or...let's just say clouded judgement.

I see a lot of people here on Daily Kos remark on the expiration of all the Bush tax cuts as a good thing, for both political and deficit reasons. I'd like to explain why my family needs that relief, and what we did with our tax refund last year.
