Time is running out to comment on this stupidity

Subject: 25 days to protect women’s health

George W. Bush has launched a new assault on birth control and reproductive freedom.

The Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) recently proposed regulations that could seriously undermine access to basic reproductive health services -- including birth control and abortion.

Instead of striking a careful balance between individual religious liberty and patients’ access to reproductive health care, the Bush administration has taken patients’ rights and their health care needs out of the equation.

This far-reaching proposal doesn’t need congressional approval. But, it can’t go forward without allowing for public comment. That’s where you come in.

The deadline for public comments is fast approaching -- September 20 - and we have to generate intense opposition to these dangerous regulations.

Non blogging media- Give it a rest

I have many friends who voted for Hillary - more than a few of them are now in Denver, where they will support Obama.

So who are the Hillary nuts trying to get airtime? My guess is that they are nuts, repugs or even the media itself trying to keep a fight going so as to sell ads and keep viewership. There is nothing like a run away convention or election to keep people away from the TV sets...because most of what else is on is mind numbing [except sports:-)]

I turned on my TV yesterday to see Tweety giving lots of airtime to an ann coluter wannabe. Dumb comments, hostile and non stop shrieking at the microphone. Yet Tweety kept talking to her giving her just what she and the repugs want - the idea that there is division. There isn't - only the small minds like Tweety and the now ex-clinton campaign staff [the highly paid and/or narcissistic ones who are pissed that they won't now have cushy WH jobs] are yelling division...

The real delegates and the real voters are not divided!

PS - I cried during Michelle Obama's speech last night and also found myself wanting very much to be in Denver right now - just to be there in all that energy! It's palpable thru the TV screen [when the pundits stop yammering]

Cute - and Catchy

Let's all sing this one....

JohnMcSameMcBushIII©'s Pity Party Redux

Poor old tired old JohnMcSameMcBushIII©.

His latest email tells us that Obama is going to get a convention bounce!

So what can poor old tired old JohnMcSameMcBushIII© do?

Why he needs your money! Before September 1st!

For what purpose? Poor old tired old JohnMcSameMcBushIII© can't tell you - he really has no agenda except for being bush's 3rd term but he'd like your money anyway. I bet to run ads like he's been running...the rove machine ads...When you have nothing to add to a conversation, [so goes the repug mantra], yell, scream, and lie.

We see this on faux noise and we'll see more of it from the pity party in Minnesota.

Frank Rich NYT Op-Ed Piece

From the New York Times:

Is a man who is just discovering the Internet qualified to lead a restoration of America’s economic and educational infrastructures? Is the leader of a virtually all-white political party America’s best salesman and moral avatar in the age of globalization? Does a bellicose Vietnam veteran who rushed to hitch his star to the self-immolating overreaches of Ahmad Chalabi, Pervez Musharraf and Mikheil Saakashvili have the judgment to keep America safe?

R.I.P., “Change We Can Believe In.” The fierce urgency of the 21st century demands Change Before It’s Too Late.

I've said it before - I prefer a leader who knows modern technology because you need to know enough to understand what are it's possibilities. A person who needs a staff person to find out all info [including the number of house he owns] - is not a person I want making decisions that require modern thinking - and of one's own!

We've had enough of the staff tainted "knowledge" to know that it has led to the worst president ever and serious problems for the country and the world.

NO MORE LUDDITES!!!!
