Remember that recent diary about an Oklahoma legislator who has proposed a bill to "outlaw aborted fetuses" in food? It was another field day for Kossacks to point and laugh at my adopted state. And with fodder like that, it's not easy to rise up and defend the mental well-being of Oklahoma voters. Slight comfort that the bill's author clarifies that he only means to address the use of embryonic stem cells in our food by those evil liberal food manufacturers, he really wasn't thinking about abortion at all, unlike all those other bills he regularly writes.
Well the embarrassing story is now on the web site of the state's major daily, a right-wing rag which itself is an embarrassment, yet even there, the urge to laugh and point is just barely contained. In fact, you can make some further assumptions, if you like, regarding the delay in covering this local story.
But we surely can't draw any hope from employees of wingnut christian billionaire Phillip Anschutz so I would like to draw your attention to the article's comment thread. I think it gives credence to my new sig line.
