“I can’t even finish this sentence without getting dumber”: Tina Fey didn’t mince words when discussing recent comments by relatively prominent Republicans on the topic of rape while speaking at the Center for Reproductive Rights Inaugural Gala in New York City. Check out the 75 second clip for a brief clip of Fey’s thoughts on redefining rape, Richard Mourdock, and Todd Akin. source

“The Democratic Party strongly and unequivocally supports Roe v. Wade and a woman’s right to make decisions regarding her pregnancy, including a safe and legal abortion, regardless of ability to pay. We oppose any and all efforts to weaken or undermine that right.”

2012 US Democratic National Platform

Who are you voting for?

[NB: More people than just cis women need and want access to abortion care.]

(Work) Conversations With Frank

  • Me: I want to know how many laws the U.S. Congress tried to enact over the last year...
  • Frank (cuts me off): Fucking with your uterus?
  • Me: Yes. Exactly. Fucking with my uterus.
  • (But, if anyone has an answer for me, I'll be glad to hear it...)

Arizona has just passed the most extreme anti-abortion legislation in the country

I love how Airzona goes out of their way to make Texas seem sane.

“I commend you for coming forward though Limbaugh’s attack was a disappointing reminder of how slowly attitudes change. In 1977, before I started law school, I took the same position with the Board of Directors of the teachers’ union to which I belonged and of which I was an officer. Another Board member called me a “whore” for suggesting that our health plan should cover the cost of birth control pills because I was divorced. The only comfort I can offer you is that after nearly 28 years in practice, I find my brothers at the Bar less hostile than that former colleague or repugnant Rush.”
