This Turkey Day, Tanks Fer Nuttin', GOP!

In the tradition of coming together over Thanksgiving, here's to reaching across the aisle -- and the dining room table -- to celebrate. Today, we thank Republicans for all they've done for us this year: Nothing. Thanks for nothing, guys.

- Thanks for nothing, Tea Party! Throwing a temper tantrum and causing the GOP government shutdown? With those childish antics, you'll fit right in at the kids' table!
- Thanks for nothing, Senator Lindsey Graham. He thinks the 20-week abortion ban bill he brought to the Senate is "worthy of a great democracy." We'll let you mull that one over your turkey dinner.
- Thanks for nothing, Scott Walker. Signing a mandatory ultrasound bill into law is like forcing us to eat peas -- NO THANKS. Oh, and if YOU think the GOP's War on Women is "insulting," how do you think the millions of American women feel?
- Thanks for nothing, GOP. Cuts to food assistance for families in need mean that while the GOP enjoys their stuffing and cranberry sauce with glee, millions will be hungrier this Thanksgiving as deeper SNAP cuts continue to hit American families.
- Thanks for nothing, Texas Republicans. Your bill HB2 is a truly horrible set of anti-choice measures that will leave thousands of Texan women without access to the health care they need. Let's give Republicans their just desserts by electing Wendy Davis governor next year.
- Thanks for nothing, Republicans. Phrases like "Abortion Barbie," "empty dress," and "abortion machines" have proven you've sunk to new lows -- and for that we toast you.
