"For 2 years, GOP leaders in Congress fought tooth and nail to oppose health care reform. They did their best to keep tens of millions without coverage, decrying any effort to help citizens as "socialist," "fascist" or some other equally baffling "ist." And incredibly, they are now talking about repealing it.

And yet, when it comes to their own coverage, Republicans in Congress are not only using government-sponsored health care, they are whining about having to wait for it."

Please sign this petition asking them to repeal their own health care. And why shouldn't they? They can't afford it on their own?

Cindy McCain Is A Total Badass

in

I've written before about the McCain women stepping up. And I DO feel badly about ever saying that Cindy McCain was really a Klingon Warrioress dressed poorly in Dolce & Gabbana.

I also feel badly that she's still married to that... What did I call him? Oh yeah, "a ginned-up hobbit". Yeah. That's it. I imagine THAT'S why I thought she was a "Klingon Warrioress".

We'll blame my poor judgment on John McCain. And really, why wouldn't we?

So, yeah. Cindy McCain has stepped up AGAIN.

"Our political and religious leaders tell LGBT youth that they have no future. They can't serve our country openly.

"Our government treats the LGBT community like second-class citizens. Why shouldn't bullies?" ~ Cindy McCain

Brava, Cindy, brava. I'm just sorry that you're still married to that ginned-up hobbit.

(See? Am I lying?) Although, I am fond of how you prod him. It's good for him. So, keep prodding. It keeps him on his hairy, stubby toes. Anyway, Cindy,... may I call you "Cindy"? Great. I like your style.
