I was just watching the Melissa Harris-Perry show on MSNBC, and they were talking about the war against women.

Here we are, engaged in this fight to get birth control for women, and watching our rights slip away... and then came a commercial that just about made me lose it.

EUGENE - In a bold move, Oregon's legislature has passed a new law, similar to those in other states, requiring invasive procedures to be performed before certain medical services can be rendered.

I found out recently that someone gave me a lifetime subscription to Daily Kos. My first reaction was "Me??"

Second reaction was gratitude, mixed with surprise. I have no idea who gave me this lifetime subscription, but I would like to say "Thank You!"

At times, however, I'm not very good with words... so I'm going to say it with photos, and video. I truly hope the person who gifted me in such a generous way finds something here to enjoy....

I have. There is a diary on the list right now which asks the President if he's ever been cold.

I've been cold, but I have also been very, very hot.

I'd like to share some of my experiences with you, if I may.

This was a comment in that other diary, but I decided to expand on it.

I know this isn't much of a diary, but I'm doing a happy dance over here, and just wanted to share!

Forgot to add this tweet from Keith earlier today:

Just a photo diary... nothing important, nothing major. I just felt like walking by the lake today, and photographing whatever I came across.

And yeah, I know the title is a bit much, but so what? It's what I felt like saying. It's cheesy, but then, so is this diary.

So come fly with me, if you wish... or not. Up to you. :)

Those who are willing to create a monster should be aware that the monster can, and will, turn around and eat them. It's happening to the GOP right now.

Bob Inglis can testify to the truth of that. I feel no sympathy for the Republicans on this issue. None whatsoever. They fought actively for many years to perpetuate the fear and anger on the right, and now they are paying for it, and they have trapped themselves in a box that appears to have no exit.

David Corn, writing for Mother Jones Online, talks about Inglis and his willingness to finally admit to the truth. Too little, too late, but he has paid a price.

Just a short diary, to let everyone know that the USDA has decided to look at their decision, and possibly reconsider the ousting of Shirley Sherrod, as well they should.

I think most of us know that the last eighteen months have been very difficult for Keith Olbermann. He lost both of his parents, and a few friends as well.

His remarkable tribute to his mother, Marie Olbermann, garnered him an Emmy Nomination, and I think it is well-deserved. The tribute was wistful, funny, and beautiful, and it made me cry. Looking at today's Twitter feed, I can see I'm not alone.

KosAbility is a community diary series posted at 5 PM ET every Sunday and Wednesday by volunteer diarists. This is a gathering place for people who are living with disabilities, who love someone with a disability, or who want to know more about the issues surrounding this topic. There are two parts to each diary. First, a volunteer diarist will offer their specific knowledge and insight about a topic they know intimately. Then, readers are invited to comment on what they've read and or ask general questions about disabilities, share something they've learned, tell bad jokes, post photos, or rage about the unfairness of their situation. Our only rule is to be kind; trolls will be spayed or neutered.

I'm sure anyone who is in the medical field understands what a "zebra" is in medical terms, but for those who don't, it goes back to an old saying taught to doctors and medical personnel:

"If you hear hoofbeats, think horses, not zebras."

But what if you're an alien zebra?

It's starting again. Did we really think it wouldn't? The GOP wants to do to President Obama what they did to President Clinton - investigations, subpoenas, harassment...

Rep. Darrell Issa has plans. Big plans. And if the GOP wins the House this fall, he will do everything he can to destroy this administration.
