I know everybody is all a-twitter about Iowa... and so am I!
But I'd like to briefly mention how you can tell that there is an highly organized, syncronized 'orchestrated' feel to the Rethuglican controlled media. There's a GOP elephant in the room that nobody is talking about.
When was the last time you heard the words: "Overturn Rove v. Wade"????
When was the last time you heard: "Selecting Supreme Court Justices"???
The Thugs have been tossing dumpster loads of Red Meat to what they hope will be their constituencies, but there has been silence on this little subject.
A quiet little recess appointment of yet another Thug ideologue to the Federal Bench... a Mr. Pickering.
A rustle of Rove Orc feet here... A muffled clank of a grimy sword there... oh, yes... the Orcses have not forgotten... anything...
The Rethuglicans haven't forgotten their base, but they won't be talking about it until they consolidate their power in congress and elsewhere. They want to appear 'reasonable' now. The last attack on the right to choose when their way. So they don't want to unite anybody against them until after they have four more years to attack freedom in America.
I haven't forgotten about the right to choose either. I am a male, but I think it is a woman's choice to bear children. In the age of 'personal responsiblity, I am willing to let women and their doctors be responsible for their own bodies.
The science of human reproduction is unstoppable. But the Bush administration has shown us that it is quite willing to push the Afghan and Iraqi women back under centuries old oppression in our 21st century.
So, let's not kid ourselves, a woman's right to choose will be among the very first casualites of a second Bush term.
It's not just American kids in Iraq who are dying because of Bush.
The Christian Right wants gays back in the you-know-where... Right alongside the coathanger that is still under wraps, but ready at hand, in the Rethuglican closet.
