Single Women Are Quickly Becoming the ‘Evangelicals’ of the Democratic Party

[kevinbgoode1]

33. Single adults (period) are now the majority in this country. . .

which makes me think the GOP's whole contraceptive crap is going to go down the toilet over and over again.

I do have to share one item I saw a couple of days ago in the Globe and Mail - I'd post it as an original thread if. . .I could post original threads yet. But it speaks a bit tongue-in-cheek to the issues the GOP are creating in their obsession with controlling everyone but themselves:

Americans are being assured all these measures are about states' rights, religious freedoms and balanced budgets. Certainly they have nothing to do trying to restrict a woman's right to control her fertility. And since I don't think it's productive to be paranoid about these things – it's 2012 after all, and surely our birth-control battles are behind us – here's a rundown of a dozen measures Americans can probably expect in the future. Yes, they all seem to be all about your uteruses but, lordy, why are you girls so touchy?

The No Sperm Left Behind Act. An act of Congress ensuring that every sperm be given equal opportunity to fertilize an ovum regardless of its issuer's economic status or desire to take care of a baby. Unlawful detainment of sperm through any barrier method would result in a fine. And no spilling.

Ask, Tell. An official government policy allowing your employer to be nearer to his God by staying fully informed about all aspects of your medical history (but you totally know he's only going to ask you about the sex stuff).

Bill S251: The Defence of Unhappy Marriages Act. An initiative designed to define a marriage as the original framers of the Constitution intended – as the boring, resentment-filled, economically disadvantageous partnership between two people who grew up believing that you can't get pregnant the first time you have sex or if you do it standing up.
