I don’t understand GOP women.

-Lilly Ledbetter Fair Pay Act: Of the 15 Republican Congresswomen who were in the House at the time, all 15 voted against the Lilly Ledbetter Fair Pay Act of 2009, a law that helps women hold accountable employers who discriminate in the pay practices based on gender.
-Paycheck Fairness Act Act: 13 of those 15 also voted against the Paycheck Fairness Act, which would update the 1963 Equal Pay Act by closing many of its loopholes and strengthening incentives to prevent pay discrimination.

Members Of New GOP Women’s Caucus Voted Against Equality For Women

Her insurance wouldn’t pay for it, so she cancelled the appointment. I don’t know what her thought process was, but she didn’t get another Pap test done until after she knew she had breast cancer.

We don’t have a Planned Parenthood any where near here. I wonder whether it would have made a difference.

A guy I know on another board got a 95 page screed saying that the Revolution! has begun and then blathers on in typical Dominionist fashion.

“We The People; in order to form a more perfect union and set ourselves free from oppression; demand that all of the legislative branches of government: federal, state and local, including the President and Vice President, shall repeal and cease to enforce all and every piece of man-made legislation, all of which is criminal; fraudulent and treason against the God in Whom we trust and also against we His people.

YHWH (“I AM”) has expressly forbidden men from legislating (Deuteronomy 4:2) and has commanded that any and all persons found guilty of so doing should be executed by public stoning, or by any other means available to carry out that task.

Usury is unlawful; expressly prohibited, and therefore:

We The People demand that the Federal Reserve Bank be prohibited from charging interest and that all interest payments already paid to the FRB shall be refunded, in full, forthwith and redistributed equally amongst all the citizens of these united States of America.

We The People demand that all persons convicted under man-made legislation and therefore wrongfully imprisoned shall be released immediately and the judges who unlawfully condemned and sentenced them shall take their places in prison and personally, from their own funds, not the state purse, compensate the offended persons for their wrongful imprisonment.

Furthermore: anyone collaborating with the enemy; by seeking to or enforcing and/or administering any of the aforementioned unlawful legislation against We The People; is guilty of the same crimes as the legislators and will, according to God’s Law, also be executed in accordance with The Law.

You have been warned.

And on and on and on.

Romney’s Colorado Speech Backfires: Town Residents Contradict Campaign Talking Points

Campaigning in Craig, Colorado yesterday, Mitt Romney’s campaign claimed that no clean energy jobs exist in the state — even though the Bureau of Labor Statistics says there are more than 70,000 of them.

Romney also made another blunder: By using the town of Craig has an example of a “hurting” community in coal country, his speech was based on a fabricated story. After the speech, town residents completely contradicted Romney’s talking points in interviews with the New York Times:

The city’s finance director, Bruce Nelson, said that tax revenue had bounced back strongly since last late year. “We are holding our own,” he said.

Terry Carwile, the mayor of Craig and a retired coal miner, went further, saying that the economy was “getting better” in the town of 9,500 as oil speculation intensified. He played down the suggestion that federal regulations had wounded the local coal industry.

“The policies of the federal government really aren’t that impactful to us so far,” he said. He acknowledged that they were “a concern,” though, and that residents were ever wary of government meddling in their biggest industry.

That was not the message from Mr. Romney, who spoke to about 1,000 residents in a park near the town’s center.

Among other things, “Feebay” and its monopolistic co-conspirator, “Never-PayPal,” can hold your money up to 26 days after a buyer pays, making money from floating it the whole time.

I am leaving, after just 2 months, and I am not the only one. The rest is not so simple. Inventing a better widget does not automatically mean that you can displace Mega-Widget at the top of the market. Ebay’s subsidiary, PayPal, can use its market dominance to force competitors to use its services, guaranteeing that even successful competitors will contribute to their, Ebay’s, cash flow. There is almost no chance you could make a go of online sales without accepting PayPal. Ebay’s own market dominance also gives them a high media profile that makes them the first choice for new sellers. There are a number of competitors out there, and many of them appear to offer a more user friendly service, but there is no way to be sure without trying them one by one. We shall see.
