Happy Birthday, shrift!
For someone who could pretty much live with any of the top three Dems, I'm all jittery over the process actually finally starting tonight. Don't fuck this up, America!
You want to meet the real me now?

I, too, am hopeful - but I'm also feeling the "Iowa? Seriously?" thing. Maybe because I'm not up to my normal level of nice. Maybe because I saw three Iowans on tv (all white, all mid-forties) saying "we represent America!", while the Iowa demographics (90-something% caucasian, much of that evangelical, etc.) rolled below the image. My bullshit detector, people - let me show you it.
I do kind of like weird-ass way Iowa democrats caucus. voting with their feet, giving speeches... it sounds like it would take forever though. The republicans with their secret ballot are probably out of there in 30 minutes.

I'm pretty much in the jeezusgawd, another 11 fucking months of this?!! mode. Due to the election schedule here, it feels like I've been going to vote for something or other every six months or less. One campaign after another, even if some were foregone conclusions. It's like...again?? Can't we just shut up for a bit?

Shit's all sorts of different now.
financial motives behind those who are promoting comprehensive sex ed.
As one who promotes comprhensive sex-education, my financial motive is to lessen the number of teenage girls who have to use welfare, WIC, medicaid, and other tax-funded, government programs to make their lives livable. My financial motive is to make sure that girls aren't giving up the majority of their earning potential and tax-contributing potential because noone taught them how to use any of the FREE birth control that is available to them. My financial motive is to make sure that as many girls as possible get to go to college and graduate from high school and become empowered to become a part of the government and vote to make sure that the girls behind them will continue to learn about how to use birth control.
Put that in your rythm method and suck it.
Ahem. Pardon me. Sticking a red hot poker in my ass gets less of a reaction than idiots like Wendy Wright.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
I just got my Primary Election Information Guide in the mail and it's freaking me out that I already have it. It's barely 2008!
Happy shriftday! I slounge in your honor.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
