Where’s all the pro-death penalty people? You’d think they would be pouncing all over this! .maybe I’ll tell my mom they’re looking for witnesses!
I would be extremely wary of any individual who volunteers as a witness for this.
Let us all rejoice, but do not forget this bill failed, in large part, because IT WASN’T CRUEL ENOUGH to suit the needs of the far-right Freedumb Caucus nutjobs.
I am a person who got pregnant as a result of a rape. And I say this guy can go fuck himself.
Just pointing out the stupidity of a man objecting to life saving healthcare for himself just because it primarily benefits women.
Similar to the “Well, think of your mother/daughter/wife!” argument. YOU SHOULDN’T HAVE TO RELATE IT TO YOURSELF, A RELATIVE, OR PEOPLE JUST LIKE YOU TO UNDERSTAND SOMEONE ELSE. YOU SHOULD JUST HAVE EMPATHY FOR HUMAN BEINGS LIKE A NORMAL FUCKING PERSON!
talk of previous violent incidents, expression of paranoia, overreaction to workplace changes, unstable/emotional responses, feeling of arrogance/supremacy, intense anger/hostility, violations of policy, exploiting/blaming others
To give you a sense of how much Republican lawmakers care about women, take this vignette from Senator Pat Roberts today. When asked by a TPM reporter if he supported repealing Obamacare, Roberts sarcastically responded, “I wouldn’t want to lose my mammograms.”
That Mike Huckabee piece is garbage. He can’t just say that the NEA should be saved. He starts by making sure his readers know he’s not talking about “hateful high-dollar Hollywood and music-industry stars”. But then there’s this.
“Hey we hate abortion, lets make it impossible for women to get obstetric care, maternity leave and healthcare for any children they might have. That will stop the abortions!”
Between this and congressman who doesn’t think that men should have to pay for prenatal care, it’s very clear that these changes are being proposed because they themselves are not impacted.
So this fucking guy invited truckers and Mack executives to the White House to talk about healthcare. Because if anyone knows about healthcare it’s the guys who live off of truckstop potato skins, Mountain Dew, energy pills, 5 Hour Energy, and scour parking lots looking for a toothless Lot Lizard blowjob.
Jesus Christ. It is chilling how much this resembles trying to debrief my five year old daughter twenty minutes after some silly meltdown - except she doesn’t have fucking committees and nemeses in the newsmedia and so on to obfuscate with.
The layer of oil on top is the worst. Until you get to the layer of dry peanut chalk at the bottom, then that’s the worst.
I moved to Europe a few years ago and was stunned to learn I was stunned to learn peanut butter is an American thing only. It was pretty much impossible to find in Brussels.
