I have had it with the Democrats. Governor Blanco of Lousiana has signed the abortion ban bill and that is the last straw for me. The Democrats are supposed to be about representing the little guy - folks like me and my family. Instead we get bitches and bastards like Blanco:
“Today, I signed into law Senate Bill No. 33 by Senator Ben Nevers of Bogalusa. This bill, passed by an overwelming majority of the Legislature, would prohibit abortion in Louisiana, except when necessary to save the life of the mother.
This measure takes effect in Lousiana if the US Supreme Court overturns Roe v Wade, in whole or in part, or if the US Constitution is amended allowing states to prohibit abortions.
I along with many other pro-life legislatures, had hoped this bill would include special protections for women in cases of rape and incest. In the end, these exceptions did not pass, but the central provision of the bill supports and reflects my personal beliefs”
Now, I can’t bring myself to vote for a Republican - but I will not vote for another Democrat until that damn party straightens it’s ass out and makes something besides getting elected a priority.
And to any diehard supporter - bite my ass. The democratic party is a disgrace. It stands for nothing. Absolutely nothing. It has backed down on civil rights for non-whites, it gives lip service to the rights of homosexuals and it has completely abandoned any pretense of supporting the rights of women.
It fucking sucks and it will not get a single penny or vote from me from this day forward.

"People who advocate freedom, yet deprecate agitation, are people who want crops without plowing the ground. They want rain without the awful roar of the thunder and lightning.
Without struggle, there is no progress. This struggle might be a moral one. It might be a physical one. It might be both moral and physical, but it must be a struggle.
Power concedes nothing without a demand. It never did and it never will. People may not get all that they pay for in this world, but they certainly pay for all that they get." ~ Frederick Douglas
BOTH parties are hopelessly screwed, and it’s a sad thing indeed since there’s no way in hell that a third will ever build enough muscle (not in my lifetime anyway) to wedge its foot in the door.
Love your blog, keep up the great work. :-)
