you have great ideas on the abortion issues, but it's probably unhealthy to work yourself up over it to the extent that you do, man. you have to learn to expect people not to understand stuff like this, there are lots of ignorant people in the world and you can't expect to influence them all easily. as long as you do your part, you dont have to kill yourself over everything. anyway, i highly doubt that anti abortion and abstinence only thing will be passed... there will be way too much action against it... it's simply impossible for this country to get that conservative and close-minded on something that used to be a disagreeable issue for no reason.

i'm not really all that worked up. it's just.. she's my fucking mom... and i respect her opinions, so i expect them to be good.
and you can't refer to mass ignorance and then defend our country's rationality... at least not in the same paragraph.
speaking of action, i do expect to be marching next to you and becky and any other intelligent union-ites you can scrounge up. ($40 to nyc, $15 to dc... that's like the cost of an eighth, but even more fun/exciting/satisfying.)

true... i remember when the was was starting, my best friend and i were gonna go to NY to protest against it in this big protest deal and my parents didn't let me go. their reasons were that its not safe (they thought it was gonna be a riot and i'd get killed), but the reason that pisses me off most is that my mom said "it's your country, you should agree with what it's doing". this caused me to curse off my mom in the most horrible of all ways, explain to her how much of a nazi she is, and then not talk to either of my parents for the next week. that time i can honestly say i've never been so ashamed of my parents... the thing that drove me nuts is the fact that when they were young, they went to protests in russia (anti-communism), but for some reason decided to raise their hand and heil to brother bush now.

::sighs:: if you bang me I suppose I'll go. Oh and yeah, what Mike says, stop stressing. It'll give you pimples and then just maybe I won't bang you.

[binahmirah]

y'all were raised on prozac and marijuana. i'm not stressing, just because there's something in my life that i'm emotional about.
