That. If the other women had been allowed to testify, he might never have been confirmed, Citizens United wouldn’tbe law, and we wouldn’t be in the godforsaken mess we’re in as a country now.

“Fetus” -> “extra small attached babyperson”

Hey why isn’t there more of a ruckuss about how Clarence Thomas should step down over this?

In addition to being racist and all-around offensive as fuck, this is a stupid and useless idea. Boomers are retiring now. We need people in our work force now. Getting pregnant right this very second will do exactly jack shit to help this problem - if we don’t fix it with immigrant labor in the meantime, we’ll be so…
