The "F" Word
I just got a timeout from one of my groups for using it. One week in solitary. This is Eons for Chrissakes, don't we all know these words exist by now? Fuck it!
Bullshit! Calling all bullshit!
I'd like to invite you all to express what thing you find to be the most absurd in your surroundings today... to tell us what issue would receive your Bullshit Prize at the moment??
House Vote....
The House passed H.R. 3962, the Affordable Health Care for America Act last night with a vote of 220-215. One lone Republican voted for the bill, Joe Cao (R-Louisiana). Thirty-nine Democrats voted against it.
Earlier, the House passed an amendment to pending health care legislation that prohibits federal funds for abortion services in the public option and in the insurance "exchange" the bill would create. There are exceptions in the amendment abortion would be covered by insurance in the instance of incest, rape or health of the mother.
The vote passed 240-194.

What do you think about this?
I teach developmental English in a community college. My students failed the test to place them in what is commonly called English 101.
I gave them a quiz on verbs. They had to change all the verbs in a story to the past tense. Most did fairly well on this easy test. However, I then asked them to circle the subjects of the sentences. There were 60 in all. The highest scoring student got 30 right.
I fear that these kids will not be able to vote intelligently. Where else do teabaggers come from but from the ranks of students like these?

House passes health reform bill
For health reform proponents, we are half way there.
Now we can concentrate our letters, phone calls, and emails on the Senate.

REJECTED, yet again... Maine...
Voters rejected a state law Tuesday that would have allowed same-sex couples to wed. The repeal comes just six months after the measure was passed by the Maine legislature and signed by the Democratic Gov. John Baldacci.
Maine would have been the sixth state in the country to allow gay and lesbian couples to marry, but instead becomes the 31st state to oppose the unions in a popular vote.
With 87 percent of precincts reporting as of 2 a.m. today, gay marriage opponents claimed 53 percent of the vote to supporters' 47 percent.

I will NEVER understand the bullshit that poses for argument as to why an individual should not be able to choose their own partner without interference from the government or their neighbors...

Shooters & Psych Drugs?
It's been another drug-induced violent week in the USA as two different shooting incidents dominated news headlines. The US Army Fort Hood shooter was a psychiatrist who likely self-medicated with psych drugs, and the Orlando shooter has now been confirmed to be on psychotropic drugs.

Same-sex marriage should be illegal.
(This is a letter to the editor from the summer issue of Ms. Magazine... I love it!!)
The idea of it is disgusting, disturbing and depressing. There are so many kinds of sex available to humankind; it is unthinkable that a couple would have the SAME sex night after night with no variety thrown in. Just the missionary position, with no oral sex, no doggie-style sex, no strap-sex or tantric sex or vibrator sex or gentle sensual sex or sex outdoors or screaming multi-orgasmic crazy sex--how WRONG! This is simply not what God intended when he made sex. Gendersis 3:178 clearly states, "Go ye forth and have sex in all its glorious varieties, and have fun doing it." Couples found to be having same sex should be prosecuted to the fullest extent under the law. After paying a fine or serving a sentence, guilty couples should take mandatory classes instructing them in different sexual method, taught by gay and lesbian couples, who are unlikely to have either same sex or marriages. Enforcement, admittedly, may be difficult, but with the USA Patriot Act having legalized spying on private citizens without warrants, nothing is impossible. A government task force comprised, again, of gay and lesbian couples should monitor a random population of Americans in their bedrooms with hidden cameras. Hidden microphones and speakers could also be quite useful. A lesbian baritone voice suddenly booming from behind a houseplant, "I see that you are in the missionary position again -- you are under arrest!" could be quite jolting and serve as a helpful wake-up call to same-sex perpetrators. Please call your congressperson today. We have watched same-sex marriages go unpunished for too long. It's time to act!
