GOD DAMN IT [View all]

DUer cali started a thread asking, "Have democrats largely given up on protecting a woman's right to choose?"

This is not a call-out. This is a statement of fact.

My reply:

I haven't. Wendy Davis hasn't. A lot of us haven't.

BUT. (!!!)

Hint: the so-far quasi-successful attack on women's rights in all forms taking place in many states is happening because those states are falling into Teabagger hands...

...BECAUSE PEOPLE WHO SHOULD FUCKING KNOW BETTER DON'T VOTE IN OFF-PRESIDENTIAL-YEAR ELECTIONS...Y'KNOW, THOSE ELECTIONS WHERE 90% OF THE FUCKING GOVERNMENT IS ELECTED.

There's a reason I yell "2014 2014 2014 2014" around here all the fucking time. Ermahgerd Hillary Derp Derp Derp, let's all get crazy over an election in three years and ignore the one that's A YEAR AND A DAY AWAY, when THE CRAZIEST 30% OF THE FUCKING COUNTRY will select one hundred percent (100%) of the House of Representatives, a whole shitload of state legislatures, a whole shitload of Governors, and a whole lot of OTHER REALLY IMPORTANT LOCAL OFFICES...and they'll get to do it all by themselves BECAUSE 70% OF THE COUNTRY IS TOO FUCKING FUCKASS LAZY TO RAISE THEIR HAND EVERY TWO YEARS.

You can blame Democrats. Go ahead. They're not voting in these elections, either.

FUCKING VOTE.

Decisions are made by those who show up.
