Bluntness

I've also been told I have little tact, so if this offends you simply ride on.

This is What Happens

 I get to take my car to the repair shop this morning.  They're going to fix the damage from when the bitty rock bounced up and hit my fog light.  I asked how long?  Their replay:  "We don't exactly know.  Everything depends upon if there's any 'hidden' damage."  I'm figuring on 3 or 4 days.

Biggie's carprofen arrives today.  He seems to have been doing well with just the gabapentin, so his dosage may be doled out sparingly. 

And, of course, everyone's topic, as I don't doubt will be the case for every blog I read, the leaked document from the Supreme Course will get my little opinionizing comments. 

First off, I'm going to remind all those non-voters of 6 years ago that this is what you didn't vote for; this is also the reason why it should make it self-mandatory to vote.  This is what happens when you say, "I don't really like either candidate."  For those of you who believed the polls and didn't vote because you were sure Hillary was going to win?  This is what happens.

Has anybody been keeping count of the number of times Susan Collins has said that Brett Kavanaugh told the Senate he would not overturn Roe vs Wade?  Well, the drunken frat boy lied and now she's going to be walking around with shit in her pants for the rest of her life.

This is what happens when you don't vote and a moral degenerate wins the election, a man who will give his base anything in order to get re-elected.  This is what happens when you give a socially conservative party control: they will destroy everything you hold dear.  Believe me, abortion is just their first target.


What I really find interesting is the timing of this decision, 6 months away from the mid-term elections.  while the anti-abortionists are dancing in the streets, I do not doubt that largest voting bloc in America let out a gasp of horror.  While there are a number in that bloc who claim to be pro-life, a large majority of them believe the choice for terminating a pregnancy should be theirs, and their alone.  This group does not want to be told they have no choice.  This group believes all decisions about pregnancy should be there, and there's alone.  They want to be responsible for their own bodies.  And it's 6 months from the mid-term elections.

Interestingly, running up to the primaries in Pennsylvania, for the past 2 weeks big John Fetterman has been running ads pertaining to Roe v Wade.  Big bold headlines:  They are going to take this away from you if you let them.  He's right.  This November, Democrats, and Independents, and even Centrist Republicans need to teach conservatives a lesson.  Vote Blue.

  1. I am livid with Alito.
    I had already written about it before and I got the usual cry wolf responses. But it's real and the conservatives are getting what they paid for.
    You are right: this is what happens when people, entrenched in their privilege and sense of entitlement decide to sit down an election because 'their' candidate is not in the ballot.
    Ugh.
    Vote Blue. NO MATTER WHO.

    XOXO

    1. And now those people are pissed off. As Bob has said many times, when Democrats vote, Democrats win... easily.

  2. We need to vote for true Dems that are going to keep these thing in tact. We need to vote for better Dems and stop supporting the party when they they support their own like Manchin Sinemia and Coons. Biden even ran on protecting Roe and wanted to make it law. Yet another unsettling thing to happen and to yet another core group....women. After this I doubt we pick up many seats in 2022 midterms. Im pushing hard for Fetterman....I've already been volunteering

    1. I think you're totally wrong about the 2022 elections. This is pissing people off. Biden can only do so much with what he has, so don't blame him. if you stay home and don't vote, it will only get worse!

    1. Conservatives have only cared about their own selfish agenda. We need to obliterate them in November.

  4. I haven't been following US politics since - well since the elections - but are we talking about abortion rights?

    1. Yes, they want to take the choice away from women.
