Two short letters...

Dear all South Dakota lawmakers,

Go to hell. Please stick your goddamn legislation where it belongs: either in a bonfire, or up your ass. Who the hell are you to say that most women who have gone through this "wish someone had stopped them." Fuck you.

Luvs,
~ Me


Dear all Iowa lawmakers,

Please don't follow South Dakota's example. I'm rather fond of my homestate. Don't make me hate you. Keep your laws away from me. It's not for you to judge what's right for the masses. I'm all for equal rights, and I say YES to paternal rights. So at the risk of sounding horrendously sexist, rich conservative men making laws about abortion is like taking your car to a mechanic who has never owned an automobile. Before you start crowing that I'm sexist, my father and a good number of my male friends agree with me. So to all those lovely people governing my beloved Corn State: Don't be stupid.

Kisses,
~ Me


We've all officially been packed into a handbasket, whether we want to get packed in or not. Yes, I'm pissed off about this. Anyone want to move to the moon with me?

I don't mind in the slightest. In fact, thank you for your argument--the morons in charge really need to start looking beyond the pretty face of the whole "sanctity of life" argument (which is bull to begin with, anyway) and actually look at the damn issue *growls*

Thank you very much for this. I was wondering if someone would crucify me for this post...

Not a problem.

*reads the article again* No exceptions for rape or incest? Yesh. What's next? A return to the Middle Ages' belief that women can only concieve if she enjoyed the intercourse? Banning information on and methods of birth control?

*runs a hand through hair* I'd love the irony if one of these guys' daughters ended up telling the press that she's pro-choice and doesn't support her dad's decision at all.

I would love to see that, too. There is no hope. Yet another example of stupid, close-minded individuals taking over the world. And actually, the current administration is against educating teenagers about birth control, too. Dooooooooomed...we're doomed...
