Sandra Fluke, infamous victim of Rush's self destructive "slut shaming", is considering running for the House in California. Of course, the mainstream right's base reacted exactly how you would expect them too - they lost their goddamned minds and spouted hate filled, bigoted memes, most of which have no basis in reality and are disgustingly offensive to everyone not themselves.

The Bleach Blonde From Hell reminds us once again how ugly and bigoted her world is. CPAC is where Democracy Goes To Die. Ann Fugly states her case. Don't step in it."I think [women] should be armed but should not vote...women have no capacity to understand how money is earned. They have a lot of ideas on how to spend it...it´s always more money ...

He crushed second-place finisher Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Tex.), who came in with 11 percent. More: 2014 CPAC: Rand Paul Wins Second Consecutive CPAC Straw Poll Rather than comment ...
I go, because these experiences must be recognized, must be honored. On one of my first trips to northern Uganda, an elderly man told me that if a dying person tells you their story, and it's not passed on, you'll be haunted. Well, I do pass on every story that I hear but the knowledge, the awareness, remains to haunt me. You cannot ...

This is incredibly sad. The poor baby did nothing to deserve this. I hope they actually do find a cure and find it soon. The sooner they're able to cure her, the greater the chance that they'll save her life.
