Pro-Birth, NOT Pro-Life

I love Jennifer Granholm, the former Govenor of Michigan.   And I especially like this outtake from Sister Joan Chittister, a Benedictine nun, in Gov. Granholm's post in Huffington Post Monday: 

I do not believe that just because you're opposed to abortion, that that makes you pro-life. In fact, I think in many cases, your morality is deeply lacking if all you want is a child born but not a child fed, not a child educated, not a child housed. And why would I think that you don't? Because you don't want any tax money to go there. That's not pro-life. That's pro-birth. We need a much broader conversation on what the morality of pro-life is.

And there you have it.   I'd like to see and hear the Democrats repeat this over and over and over between now and November 6th!

My Possessions are Causing Me Suspicion But There's No Proof

A great slap-down of Princess Imperious, Ann Romney, from Karoli at Crooks and Liars.   

Honey, everytime I've applied for a job, I've been finger printed, had a background check run, supplied my birth certificate, a credit report pulled, AND I had to pee in a cup.  Since I worked on government defense contracts, some variation of the above was performed at odd intervals during the course of the contract.   This was all in addition to filling out a lengthy job application, having multiple references called, and supplying a detailed resume.  Oh, and once hired, I badged in and walked through a metal detector when entering the building.  

Why does she think we, her husband's potential employer, don't get to see what she and Windsock Willard have been up to?

What a vile human she is. 

Someone Has a Birthday.....!!

Why, it's the Mistress of Snark herself.     Hope you've had a great one,  Lady Tigre!    XOXOXOX

I love It When People Slip Up and Tell the Truth

From Balloon Juice.   Of course Obama is pro-life.   If you take care of others, you just are.

Zombie-eyed Granny-starver

So Windsock Willard has made his selection, and it's Rep. Paul Ryan of Wisconsin.    Ah, yes, that Paul Ryan, the zombie-eyed granny starver of Paul Ryan's Marvelous Budget fame.    I'm sure the Teabaggers are rejoicing since they've bullied Romney into making their choice, and not his own.   

The Dems should have a field day with this selection.   Even the Catholic Church, of which he is a member, does not like his positions on gutting Medicare, Social Security, and just about every other safety net out there.   

Shorter Eddie Munster:  I got mine.   F**k you.

Meth Lab Barbie

From Wonkette.  As one of the posters commented:  "To think we came this close to electing Peg Bundy as Vice President.".      Because nothing says "Support Our Troops" quite like 5-inch gladiator clodhoppers from Pay-Less.   The captions just write themselves.    LMFAO!!!!

The Can't Understand Normal Thinking Society

I've said it before and will say it again:  You cannot be PRO-life and AGAINST universal health care.   It's really quite simple.   Apparently even Romney spokesperson Andrea Saul gets it, even though she is off-message.   Hilarious.  Clip is from Crooks and Liars...    And I hope the election turns on this very thing.   GOP = Idiots!

Love This

Unfortunately, the chicken was always basted in it, but now we all know just how much  ...

Donating money to hate groups is not the same as exercising free speech

Chik-fil-A (and others) deserve every boycott they get.
