Morning Quote: MrBrink

“I'm not diminishing the heavy lifting of grass roots activism, but it's brilliant politics on the part of the president. This wasn't a national issue until the White House decided to address it. More people needed to be included and know that the Republican party has been operating like Clockwork Orange in state houses across the country, quite literally putting women's liberty in a rape room that may or may not have to be sterile.

They've been harassing and extorting the elderly with cuts to Medicaid and public transportation, and increased bureaucracy fees-- overwhelming fixed incomes everywhere like corporate thugs stealing purses on the subway. They've legislated unconstitutional barriers to the ballot boxes while altering their own bullshit Stooge-democracy election results as they go. Massive cuts to children's education and minimal nutritional assistance. Drug testing adults for food!

Just because we don't see the fire hoses and dogs doesn't mean the general idea has changed at all.

They're stealing real liberty-- not that fake threatened liberty that only exists in right wing America's idea of the Civil Rights Act and a slight tax increase on dead beat corporations. They're stealing power, liberty, and treasury from the many to give to the few and they're just stuffing them like prize pigs at this point. It's a twisted sort of cruelty to pigs.

This was a much needed wake up call to solidarity going out to women in America, and leave it to Rush Limbaugh to do the rest. Raising this issue brought the Republican party's degenerate agenda out in the open while we get to bear witness to the possible fall of Rush Limbaugh-- On president Obama's watch.”

- My friend, MrBrink, on the fallout, most of it good, and the rest of it enlightening,  from President Obama’s decision to ensure that women had contraceptive coverage that was paid for by the customers of the health insurance companies (employers or individuals).
