Gay Marriage, Sarah Palin, and other stuff

So it has been over a year since I last posted anything. Having a baby will do that to you. Politics have been much on my mind and since my co-workers are mostly republicans, I have to blog to you good people

This election year is so so critical. I can't stress enough to every woman I know to vote Barack/Biden. It's absurd for the Republican party to think that by appointing a woman VP that they're going to get the woman's vote. I know some former Hilary supporters might swing her way just because they want a vagina in power and those are the women we really need to reach out to and give the information to. If Sarah Palin had her way, the government would control our bodies, how we raise our children, give us no choice on how our children are educated and constantly annoy us with that horrendous Alaskan accent of hers. Did you see Tina Fey's impression on SNL last night? It's dead on....and it's on youtube. Search Palin Clinton SNL.

Thanks for the support on the gay marriage issue. Having the support of heterosexuals is more important than you know.

I LOVE YOU! And I can't wait to see you for Thanksgiving!!

It just makes me so angry. I invoked your name several times in that conversation.

If in twenty years or so my daughter wants to marry the girl or boi of her choice, I'll be damned if the republicans get to dictate what type of commitment she gets to make.

I love you too! Can't wait.

Just drifted over from Brittany's journal. Am I mistakenly remembering you heartlessly bitching about the legality [or at least morality] of abortion back when you thought you couldn't conceive? I'm pretty sure it was that attitude that made me remove you from my flist. It's nice that you respect other women now that you have what you want.

Wow. Always great to hear from you Katherine.

You misunderstand me. While is is true, I think abortion is a terrible thing. I also feel strongly that a woman's right to one is imperative. For me, it would not be an option, but I can only make decision for myself. If a woman chooses to have one, it is between her creator (however she chooses to believe). I pass no judgement on her. That is how I felt before I had my daughter. That is how I feel now.

Abortion is a necessary evil. I understand why women get them. I sympathize. Not everyone wants babies. Not everyone can provide for them. As a society we need to ensure that we have adequately provided women with the education, understanding, and protection they require so less abortions need to be performed.

If my daughter came to me pregnant, I would insist that she fully explore all her options before receiving my full support for whatever she chose.

I removed you for being a pompous, whiny, pretentious, self-indulgent child.

Classy edit.

I hit a nerve. The fact that you feel shame now is a good thing-- seriously.

I removed it because it was an unnecessary dig.
